Hi
Can you set transforms handle as persistent with python?
Havent found anything in docs, forum searches gave me old posts from 2013
where ppl suggested using hscript as it wasnt yet implemented to hou
library. Any info about the current situation?

ok, got things working with following python/hscript:
node = hou.node('../test_tr')
name = 'Transformer: '+node.path()
hou.hscript('pomadd "'+name+'" xform')
hou.hscript('pomattach "'+name+'" '+node.path()+' tx:tx ty:ty tz:tz')

What do you mean handle as persistent; whereas the handle for the object never disappears ?

When you select for an example a transform node, you can see its handle in the viewport, but
if you have two transforms coming from a box node and then you merge them together, when you select the
merge node, you see no transform handles. But while selecting a transform you go on top of it (in the viewport)
and click the right mouse button, you see Persistent checkbox there, enable that and your handle is visible even
if you select the merge node. Make both transforms handles persistent then you can select the merge and you see both handles at the same time, no need to select them trough network editor.
