Hello Everyone,
I am a 3dsmax user, trying to switch to Houdini (probably in a few years.. ) and a few weeks ago I started with the SideFX basic lessons.
While working through the tutorials, I ran into a few issues/questions and I was hoping to find some answers here
#1
I noticed that the backtick "`“ does not work with a German keyboard in most cases. For example it does not work in the expression editor or the parameter pane text boxes but it does work in the ”most used parameters“ text boxes above the viewport.
#2
Sometimes the Houdini GUI stops responding but only half way. Its still possible to tumble in the viewport but everything else is unclickable. When I try to quit Houdini, the ”save changes dialog" appears, but it's also impossible to click it (also not by keyboard..) I managed to restore it a few times by mini-/maximizing Houdini or switching viewports, but most of the time I had to kill it by windows taskmanager.
#3
How can i enable autobackup by default? The manual tells me that the autosave function always resets after restart..
#4
Sometimes the expression editor stops helping/suggesting the syntax.. Is there a switch I accidentally hit every time?
#5
3dsMax - thinkingParticles brought me to Houdini and there was a nice way to debug/visualize the result of parameters or expressions. is there similar way in Houdini to do this?
