Reload Recipes in 20.5? June 4, 2026, 5:23 a.m.

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way, maybe in python that would reload the recipes? I tried reloading the Recipes.hda in the asset manager which shows the newly added recipe in it but the recipe still doesn't show. Also doesn't appear in the recipe manager.

(SOLVED) HDA Display one thing but Output something else? March 18, 2026, 8:37 a.m.

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way to have what is visibly displayed in the viewport show something different from what is actually being output? Maybe there's a way to do it through the viewer state? Though typically that's more an overlay so not sure if it's capable of overriding the node output view.

I could set the output to be invisible and add what I want to show as the Guide Geometry but that is not ideal at all.

Add a Custom button to the Scene Viewer Left Toolbar? Jan. 29, 2026, 5:09 a.m.

Hello,

Is there a way to add a custom button to the Scene Viewer left toolbar just above the Flipbook button. Is this exposed somewhere that could be edited and overridden in the user's Houdini folder?
