[HE1.9] Renaming a loaded asset instance node March 8, 2016, 8:40 p.m.

Awesome, thanks for the quick response, damian!

I'm still really new to Houdini programming, but I couldn't find neither the HAPI_CreateNode nor the HAPI_RenameNode functions when searching in the docs for 1.9 (http://www.sidefx.com/docs/hengine1.9/index.html) [sidefx.com] Am I looking on the correct page, or were these functions only added in HE2.0?

[HE1.9] Renaming a loaded asset instance node March 7, 2016, 9:45 p.m.

Hi,

I've tried to find this in the docs and on this forum, but what's the proper way to rename a node that is an instance of an asset using the C++ API? I've enumerated the list of the parameters on the node, but didn't see anything matching “name”. The hou.Node class has the name property, but I couldn't find anything matching this functionality in the C++ API.

There's the HAPI_NodeInfo::nameSH, but there isn't any documentation for how to set this value. The docs only have information for how to query HAPI_StringHandle values and not how to create them.
