How I apply the BREAK SOP in Houdini? After I apply the BREAK SOP to a
SPHERE….I am unable to pull the SPHERE apart. When I select 1 part of the SPHERE and try to pull it apart, the SPHERE doesn't BREAK in half, instead it just bulges out like JELLO. I think I am supposed to Toggle (select certain Primitives of the Sphere), but how do I do that? Kamran

When using the break SOP make sure to use a Polygon Sphere.

After that press 0 to enable Select Connected Geometry. You should then be able to select your piece and move it.

Works here at least.
Drive, monkey, drive!

You are right! Thank you! I changed the Sphere type to Polygon. Primitives don't have any polygons, which means they have no points/data to break.
