Why do Python Sop nodes recook after saving the scene? 2024年3月26日7:45

Thanks! That works nicely when altering the node trees, like copying stuff from a to b, but as soon as you need to alter camera perspectives or need to work on the geo and auto-save kicks in, you need to deal with the reload times. Need to check if "on mouse up" will make a difference.

Thanks for the hint.

Oblique, light font on network view 2024年3月26日7:01

Something I haven't figured out till now is why the network view name/type (obj, stage, etc) is sometimes in a light slanted typo contrary to the regular slightly bold version. The network view behaves differently, too. Somehow it doesn't stay locked to the chosen type, but switches when choosing another network window.

Apart from deleting the view and create a new one there is nothing I could do so far to bring it back to "normal". What kind of key did I hit on the keyboard or what happened in the interaction with Houdini that this behavior occurred in the first place? Seems to be a feature, but not sure what it might be for and how to disable it.

Thanks for any insights

Why do Python Sop nodes recook after saving the scene? 2024年3月26日6:54

This is really something. I usually work with scenes loading geo via python sops. Heavy geometry. Loading takes several minutes. So, after each auto save I need to wait this time over and over again, since the python sops seem to recook.

Why is that? Does some kind of cache gets deleted? Can't think of any reason. And in terms of workflow this costs a lot of time and nerves.

Can I disable this behavior? After all, nothing changed in terms of the geo.
