I want to render only a collection of clouds primitives called "cloudbank." How do you render only a collection?

Using a Prune set to * -/cloudbank hasn't worked but that's probably operator error (and it seems clunky). I feel like I should be able to point the render to the collection and set a RenderProduct but that hasn't worked either. ?

Shift-F to frame object frames it but then immediately spins the view as if using a turntable. I'm sure this is useful for modeling but how do you turn it off? It only happens in Solaris.

Michael Goldfarb says the same, (paraphrasing) "there's no point to storing rig attributes as points except that Houdini is especially good at manipulating points, etc.

I haven't used APEX a lot but I see your point. He feeds the same rig set up into several characters and the tags handle the different topos. Pretty nifty stuff.
