Hi,

I just wanted to calculate the height of an objcet in Houdini, but I couldn't find out how to do that.

Is there any equivalent to the Measure Tool in Maya?

For those who don't know this concept in Maya: One sets up two Locators/ Null objects and the distance between those objects is displayed in the viewport.

Thank you in advance!

Hi!!

This tool is from the exchange.

Thank you very much!

Ok, now maybe a stupid question- but how am I supposed to use this?
I mean, I put this into my OTL directory and I can find it in the Operator Type Manager Window, but how can I make it work?

hi ,

drop it in an Object context and pres Enter , while it is selected on the network .
two nulls' handles ( extremities ) shd appear in viewport .

another way wd be to reference both point through expressions entered in the Otl's parameter panel
( Point_A_translate and Point_B_translate fields ) .



.cheers
