Hey y'all!

I am trying to build a library of parameter tags but am unsure where to put them to be read into the "Built-In Tags..." menu. Where is the best place to add new tags?

I have attached a picture of the button that opens the "Choose Parameter Tag" menu and a picture of the same menu.

Thanks in advance!

Jim

"Built-in Tag..." Button from the Parameter Description menu within Type Properties/Parameters

{HOUDINI_ROOT}\houdini\properties\other\standardparmtags.ds

For example on my computer: 'C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 20.0.724\houdini\properties\other\standardparmtags.ds'

This file contains built-in tags loaded when Houdini starts. Change the file to include your custom made tags.
