Becouse this UI design is 15 years old and artist who usually have good taste and sense of easthetics avoid Houdini for any cost. Parameter pane menue is really hard to look at. UI with carve animations is a joke.

I dont gent why SideFX dont refreshu it? Rebranding and refreshing 15 yo UI produckt is a must.

I broadly agree, but not everything is about looks. Houdini UI has a lot of junk in it, multiple ways to do access the same menus or windows, lots of wasted space because it's pre-burger menus, etc. -- it's just outdated UI design. They have a lot of what in programming is called "technical debt", only applied to the UI. This workshop is in need of a professional cleaner and organizer.

But to be fair, compared to some other software, it's not that bad. Look at ZBrush for example, visually it looks better and slicker, and yet it's the worst UI design of all time.
