hi

I am doing some particle work, and I would like to see the scene geometry as a guide in DOPS level, is there a way to do this. I thought the SOP guide node would do this but I am not getting anything from it.


Cheers

You can pin the scene view at object level, and display both the simulation import object and your scene geometry. Otherwise you would need to bring anything you want to see in dops as some kind of simulation object, such as with a static object.

…I thought the SOP guide node…
SOP Guide allows you to easily display geometry

either:
check Use External SOP and point it to SOP you want to display

or:
dive inside and create or Object Merge geometry you want to see

then just don't forget to check Show Guide Geometry and make sure Hide Flag is not on
