Hey folks,
I can't find the viewer handle example files that are supposed to be under $HH/viewer_handle/examples.

C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 19.5.534\houdini\viewer_handles

The hole folder is not there, the state viewer stuff is not there either. I have already re-installed Houdini to the latest version; still not there. Any suggestion?

The link in the doc [www.sidefx.com] is down. (see PYTHON VIEWER HANDLE EXAMPLES below).

The example files can be found under $HFS/packages in the folders viewer_handle_demo and viewer_state_demo.

C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 19.5.534\packages\viewer_state_demo\scenes

The documentation refers to different directories, some of which are not valid for Houdini 19.5.

In Houdini 18.5 and probably earlier versions, the Viewer Handle Demo folder is also located under packages. The viewer state examples under $HH/viewer_state/examples

C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 18.5.759\houdini\viewer_states\examples

The python handle examples can be accessed from the Viewer Handle Demo shelf which can be loaded from the Viewer Handle Browser (File|Load Examples)

Viewer Handle Example doc [www.sidefx.com]
