What can be turned into a script or hot key in Houdini?

Hi all,

I've spent a little time trying to customise Houdini in a way that should promote maximum flow and minimal impedance to tasks like modelling, groom, look-dev. I'm customising the UI, pie menus and, hot-keys, shelves, and using.

My customisation project has been a bit frustrated lately as I found some things in Houdini can't be customised. I was thinking it would be extremely useful if everything in Houdini's GUI could be exposed in such a way that it can be hot-key able and or scriptable with python.

Thanks
Steve

Hi,

Most things can be scripted in Houdini. I created my own context sensitive rule based hotkey system long time ago using the Python HOM. You can see it explained in detail here:
