Houdini 20.5 Nodes APEX nodes

graph::Merge

Merges the contents of an APEX graph into an existing graph.

On this page
Since 20.0

Merges the contents of a graph, mergegraph, into an existing graph. Conflicting node names do not get resolved, which may have an impact on operations that filter by name such as graph::FindNode. It is important to note that the node IDs in the existing graph do not change with the merge operation. In addition, the new nodes added to graph from mergegraph will not necessarily have the same node IDs as the original mergegraph.

The graph ports of this node are in-place ports, which means that the graph is updated without creating a copy.
