On the other side - this thread was really about Solaris instability that I have been experiencing.

Yes, I wouldn’t want to write this in this thread, but I saw responses from developers here, so I couldn’t hold back. When I create threads about issues, I generally don’t get any responses. Maybe I touch on uncomfortable topics, or maybe they just find me unpleasant—who knows.

Or maybe it’s the delivery

Alexey - does that mean that Modeller 2023 never had any bugs and Modeller 2024 will not have any?

I'll add my personal addendum to Mark's note: screen recordings.

I know a lot of issues seem random and it's hard at the time to identify "what were the three key steps that led to this crash?".

I always get tremendous value in watching how users are interacting with the tools, when they're clicking on things that we really didn't expect them to (but of course are obvious in hindsight), etc.

If you can capture any errors/crashes during an active screen recording session, send it to us/me. Even if it's an hour long, don't crop the video just to the crash itself. If it means solving your issue, watching you innocently click around Houdini for an hour is a small investment on our part.

By default Shift+F2 hides them.

thank you, however that does not seem to work on my end.

I press shift+F2 with the mouse over the viewport and I see the "Toggle Display of All HUD Handles" message to confirm my button press however I still have random handles showing up in my parameters window afterwards as soon as I select the node again, no matter how often I toggle this. Clicking it manually from the right click menu of the handle does nothing either. Neither does toggling "Visible" (the first checkbox when right clicking the handle)

The bug was fixed in 20.5 and backported to Houdini 20. Do you have the steps to reproduce the issue ?

Thanks a lot Ondrej! The new hotkey system packs a lot of firepower! The new key sequences are pretty similar to my dual hotkey system where the first key popups up a custom menu and the second key invokes a menu item. Really quick way of working while overloading each key with a ton of other keys per context.

So it's normal the docs are a bit behind the cutting edge

Thanks for the nice words. Just to be clear for others reading this, the ability to bind key sequences isn't a part of the 20.5 release. What animatrix is referring to is a prototype implementation.

It's one thing to bring up issues, discuss and submit the bugs/rfes if it becomes clear it's not user inexeperience/mistakes.

Whats the main problem with hotkeys? Iam not at learning stage that require using them (to be honest iam waiting for parameter pane UI overhaul and animation editor UI in general and only then i will train my muscle memory for more automated work by excersising with live Houdini. I mean remapping and rewireing my brain from other DCC to newest Houdini's UI . Till then iam more like researching H. possibilities and powers and iam more than happy about it. UI and UX is relative easy to fix.

By "whats wrong with H. hotkey" i mean what has changeg compared with prewious releases? Did they made new default hotkeys assing or what?

LukeP
Yup. And better than not having those imho. Except maybe hot key. Man you’re not scoring points with SideFX and developers
