Renaming parameters and backwards compatability July 10, 2024, 8:01 a.m.

Hello!
I want to do some refactoring and rename some parameters on HDA's that are in use, I have found this documentation:

but Id like an example to look at, is there any examples of a "upgrade handler script" is use i can refer too?

getting/setting active tab in a multiparm Dec. 15, 2023, 10:29 a.m.

https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/35316/?page=1#post-328289 [www.sidefx.com]

If i dont set the stash as editable i get this
As I said, promote the stash data parm to your HDA

to anyone else showing up asking the same question, drag this into your HDA params. it can be set as hidden

thanks!
