Hi there,

I'm wondering if there is any (hidden) way to have a custom label next to a custom otl.
Basically like how most rop-nodes or the sop/file-node display the fileName next to there label.

I found this old thread which pretty much seems to describe what I'm after:

Is there any way of using those special parm_names without having to go the c++-route?

cheers

Just create a string parameter on your hda and put it's name in the “Descriptive Parm” field in the Node Tab.
