if statement modifies groups, what!? Nov. 19, 2018, 1:56 p.m.

I'm pretty sure you need to use “==” for if statements like that. if(@group_frontdoor == 1)
A single “=” sets the value, even inside an if statement.

HotKey 'Edit Parameter Interface' doesn't work Nov. 16, 2018, 11:58 a.m.

I'm trying to set a keyboard shortcut for the “Edit Parameter Interface” command
I cannot get it to work completely.

I've figured out there are two references to that command in the Hotkey manager. One of them seems to work in the network view. The other makes the shortcut shows up in the drop-down menu from the parameter window, but doens't work when pressed. I like it to work also in the parameter view.
I've also tried different keys, and restarting houdini.

I'm on Houdini 17.0.35, on an Imac with osx 10.13.3
I thought it worked in previous versions but the behaviour seems to be the same in 16.0 and 16.5 and 15.0

Can someone shed some light on this please?

Troubleshooting frequent crashes. Dec. 21, 2017, 8:40 a.m.

Thanks for the tips. I hadn't thought of heating or RAM as the problem. I'm going to check that.
I have 24 GB of RAM. I'll try keeping an eye on the usage.

Crashes have been mostly while working, rarely while rendering of simming. I have not found any correlation in what I'm doing and crashes. I've also noticed that Houdini starts acting weird before it crashes. It's hard to pinpoint when that happenes because I'm not knowledgeable enough to figure out if something doesn't work because of me or because Houdini is about to crash.

- The System Requirements are for the current version of Houdini only. Is there a page of the Requirements for previous versions?
