Hello.

I am trying to modify the conditionals of the asset's parameters via Python.
The .conditionals()method returns a weird dictionary (set?).
How should I access the value using the key in such case?

Actually I've already found a solution. :S
Simple
for x, y in conditionals_dict.items():
    key = str(x)  # to compare with something like 'parmCondType.DisableWhen'
    value = y
works fine.

Hope this will be useful for someone someday.

its a normal dictionary, just keys are not string, but instances of hou.EnumValue

so to get the value of you should do:
print(clr_type.conditionals()[hou.parmCondType.DisableWhen])
print(clr_type.conditionals()[hou.parmCondType.HideWhen])
