Is it possible to quickly view two separate COPs
nodes on two separate viewers? In Houdini 4.1
you could do this via a dropdown in each viewer
but that seems to be missing now.
What I'm trying to do is edit a rotospline in one view
while seeing the end result (last node) in another.

Shift click on the disply flags for each COP you want to view.

okay thanks, I'll race home and try it.

ok that sort of works but what if I want to:
view the rgb of a node in one viewer and the alpha in another,
view one node at 1/4 rez while viewing another at full,
view one node on a small viewer while viewing another on a large viewer,
view handles and info on one viewer while leaving another clean.
and so on…
also the new rows and columns system is very temperamental;
it will occasionally hang the program if the same node is dragged into
different cells, or if multiple nodes are dragged in. It will also
do an ugly, worse-than-anything refresh whenever a toolbar is expanded.
The H4.1 system of multiple viewers is practical and clean. Is there
any way to bring it back?
