Hi,

What is the way to delete previously saved Viewport overrides? I can create them, but not modify/delete them.

Cheers.

Yeah, somewhat ridiculously, there is no way to do this right now (besides with a python script). There is already an RFE for this.

Thanks for your tip. Would you mind to share the python way to remove foobar entry? Thanks so much.

Expansion states, overrides, and load masks are stored as "data blocks" on the LOP Network. Data blocks are removed like this:

s = hou.node('/stage')
s.removeDataBlock('foo.overrides')
