I'm creating a digital assets and I wanted to base it's icon off a built-in DOP node's.
Where can I find Houdini's icons?

Cheers

the easiest way is to Right-Click on the node with desired icon
choose Type Properties …
and in Basic tab you will see Icon parm with the name of the icon
just use the same icon name for your tool

Yes, but I actually want to edit the icon in a graphics package before using it…

thanks!

From what I currently see, it's now under (in my case you can see \Icons\iconsbecause I unzipped icons.zip):

C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 19.5.569\houdini\config\icons.zip
