Hello all,

I am creating a digital asset , and want to set default values for the parameters I can set default values manually for each of the parameters but it will be very useful if there is any way to query the current values of the parameters and set that as default value,hope someone will help me..

Thanks..

set the parameter values that you want to be default
in the Type Properties > go to the parameters tab > and look for the Gear Icon in the Existing Parameters section
click it and select Copy Defaults From Node
then click Apply/Accept
WARNING - this will apply all the current parameter values as defaults for the HDA - which is what you want but just be sure you set the right values

Also, right clicking on the parameter name you can update the default values selectively.

This method does work for general parameters, but it doesn't work for the parameters in folder. For example, I created a folder (multiparm block tabs), the color ramp can't remember the points number and colors. Is there any other way to achieve the default setting?
