hou.nodeTypeCategories
to determine type category of operators.Some of those categories are obvious, like "Sop", "Cop2", ChopNet", etc. Others required some investigation, like the "Driver", which stands for ROP for some reason.
There are however three categories that I am unable to decipher:
- Director,
- Manager,
- VopNet - definitely not used by VOP Networks.
hou.node('/obj/geo1/vopnet1').type().category()
ChopNet
type category. But there's no separate context for VOPs, and no VopNets can be created inside VOPs networks. I'm not sure if I'm expressing myself clear here. My question, directed mostly to our favorite Devs, is which nodes, and in which contexts, are using those three type categories?
