Hi

I would like to modify the node colors in several scenes, and change it by node type. I mean every node type will have their own color.

I am thinking to do it by python… but i am wondering if there already exist a native way to do it before develop the script… maybe I am trying to invent the wheel, and there already exist an easier way to do it.

Thanks for your time

You could use a node color theme. I forget how to edit the theme in houdini, but they're just json (or some other markup) files that can be edited with a text editor manually.

Edit:
to add a node color to the current theme, ctrl-drag a color from the palette to the node to be added to the theme. This will color all future and current nodes of this type as long as the theme is active. The network editor properties dialog allows selecting the theme and duplicating and existing one.

ohh nice! thanks @jsmack
