How to clear the cache of a python script node? Dec. 11, 2023, 6:26 a.m.
Hi,
Is there a way to clear the cache of a python Script Node.
I'm developing a Python script node and just the string of a print or adding a null before the node change the result of the node. So I suspect that the nodes results are cached depending of their inputs and parameters for performance purpose, but when developping something, it's frustrating if the wrong cached value is returned at random. and having to restart houdini, or leaving the possibility of forgetting to reconnect to the final node, or leaving some debug print in an hda.
If there is a way to force to clear the cache of the selected node, all these frustrations can be avoided.
I won't be surprise if it exists somewhere but I just didn't find it.
So if there is an houdini guru that can point me to where i can find this magic button, i'll be eternally gratefull.
Spec:
Windows 10
Houdini 20.0.506
In Solaris
Thanks in advance.

Edit Target Layer Node doesn't seem to work as expected Dec. 3, 2023, 6:47 p.m.
Hi, i'm trying to make a pipeline where you can switch your edit from a context to another (scene/sequence/project),
So i'm trying to use the EditTargetLayer Node but my first issue is that it does nothings as it is.
For exemple when we are inside the edits_in_context everything is fine, but we look at the layerReplace node, we see nothing.
and when saving, it does also nothing.
So I tried to replace the layerReplace with a merge node, it work almost as expected at the exception when using multiple EditTargetLayer to edit different layer, it save all edit in the last EditTargetLayer Node and does nothing on the other.
I'm sure it's because i don't use the node properly but i didn't find anyone explaning how to use it or any exemple scene for this node.
Does anyone have any tips on this subject?
thanks in advance.
