Hi Mark,

Sorry, I was still recovering from not sleeping when I posted that. But you guessed right. That's exactly what I was asking.

Thanks,

So it looks like if I save the HDA after having created an Image Plane it issues the warnings. If I don't create any Image Planes before saving the HDA it seems to work fine.

It seems like the referencing from the Mantra node up to the HDA's multipparm is done in hscript. Not that I'm going to change it - but if I ever wanted to change something like this, how would I go about it?

So I updated to 9.0.757 (or somewhere thereabouts - later than 9.0.753 for sure).

When I link up the Extra Image Planes from within the Mantra node to my HDA - I get a bunch of warnings saying it's skipping parameters that do not exist in the Mantra node, e.g.: vm_disable_plane1, vm_picture_plane1, etc.

However these parameters do exist.

I did some searching and it seems like Jason Iverson had posted something asking about warnings that were similar to these and if it should be of any concern…

..so I was wondering something similar, can these warnings be safely ignored?


Also, it appears that once you do link up the parameters from the Mantra ROP to your HDA , there's no way to undo it. It seemed that “Disable Image Plane” was permanently set to always connect to it's cousin in the HDA - and “Delete Channel” seem to have no effect. I couldn't find a way to get a the Mantra parameter for it to get rid of the reference to the HDA.
