Hi there,

Does anyone have any idea if sidefx are going to release an updated version of Houdini 13 Apprentice Edition, where the point snapping problem is fixed?

Thanks

Hi Jeff.
You can take a look at daily builds in downloads session… basically every day has a new release…
cheers!

the point snapping problem

I'm afraid you'll have to be more specific. Do you have a bug report number? Also, if it's a request for a new feature, or something that might break compatibility, it almost certainly won't be available until at least the next major version, since the public versions have to remain somewhat stable.

I'm sure that he's referring to the same snapping issues that I was complaining about earlier. Snapping is apparently being reworked and we won't see an implementation until the next major release, according to my most recent correspondence with SESI on the issue. Bug ID=60698

You should be able to do point snapping in tomorrow's build (13.0.371) without needing to turn on Point Markers first.

FYI a workaround to the snapping problems that I've experienced is to copy and paste the SOP that I want to snap to - snapping tends to work okay with the new SOP. After I'm finished whatever snapping operation it was that I was doing, I delete the duplicate SOP.
