hi all,

so from the hscript tutorials i learnt that the backtick or tilde key is a shortcut to insert geometry at from the scene level…

does this key run a script or is it editable in some way? i'd like to tweak it a little….

thanks!

Are you talking about the backtick key while in the Network View pane? If so, then it runs
soptoolutils.chooseAndOpenGeoFile({}, False)

I think the code is in $HH/python/soptoolutils.py. You can probably monkey patch it via your $HOME/houdini/scripts/python/pythonrc.py file.

yes, that's it

i'll have a look into the python, thanks
