Hi,
But you definitely can't override materials as easily.
You can ObjMerge to override materials but this takes times.

PS:If you use mantra I think you can definitely use the material spreadsheet, but again that's not really linked to the ROP as far as i know.

You said it - material style sheets give you potentially ultimate flexibility, overriding any attribute.

Saving multiple images from the renderview May 12, 2016, 10:57 a.m.

That's a really great list. Your list has inspires me:
- auto centre different resolutions
- ability to ‘tear off’ render view into an Mplay window

..please can the whole of your list be RFE'd?

Houdini UI Not Designed For VR VFX Applications May 12, 2016, 10:22 a.m.

I think you'll find that Houdini has been “levelling” up consistently for the last two decades. Sesi is better positioned than most to cater for the VR industry.

I'm sure you must recognise that, as you have the Sidefx reel on your own web site(!) - which has incidentally my and lots of other peoples work on it. That is generally not considered good form.

I'm sure you don't mean any harm - but your caustic attitude is easily mistaken for arrogance which doesn't go very around here. i don't think anyone minds critique, but try and “level up” and be a little more constructive. There's some very smart people on this forum who are happy to share. I think you might just be winding people up the wrong way..
