The awesome Favorite Wrangle SOP Presets [sidefx.com] thread gave me a good idea to try making a Python panel.

It's pretty simple, the gif should illustrate how it works, but here are some other tips/info:

- To create snippets from selected nodes, hold Shift when clicking the add button.
- Also, you have to right-click and Save to disk… or any changes to your snippets won't be saved (whether additions, deletions, or edits).
- They are saved to your $HIH folder (so it should work on each OS) in a snippets directory.
- When you edit a node, you can rename it
- Some Qt-related issues (I believe): pasting text sometimes gets screwy, and resizing windows doesn't redraw without refreshing

You can get it from this github repo: https://github.com/crydalch/houdini-plugins [github.com]. I installed it by cloning the repo to some place, then made a symlink placing the snippets file in the python_panel folder.

Feel free to add any requests as issues on github. I've got a few already, such as tabs, but let me know how y'all find it.

Thanks for sharing.

BTW, I hadn't pushed the changes adding Shift + Click to create snippets from selected nodes. Just took care of that now.

Thanks

Very Nice!!
