Hi,

I was wondering if there's a way to add keys through a loop to a key value dictionary (stored on a null) with python. I got that I can edit keys by hou.parm().set()

But I somehow can't figure out how I would create them. If I run a for loop with an array through set() it would only create and change one key. Could not really find anything in the forum, would be very grateful if sb. could give me a hint

Thanks a mil, cheers

you can set all values at once using dictionary
values = {'a': '1', 'b': '2', 'c': '3'}
p.set(values)


or to edit/add more keys:
values = p.eval()
values['d'] = '4'
p.set(values)
