Collection Box and Houdini 20.5 / Python 3.10 #39

Open AndreSalviato opened 1 week ago

AndreSalviato commented 1 week ago

Hello, I would like to know if the collection tool works in Houdini 20.5. Everything is working perfectly, but I can't open the collection box. This only happens in Houdini 20.5, version Phyton 3.10. I click or type the shortcut and nothing happens.

Do I need to change anything in the script?

Thanks :)

everything works in H 20.5 /py3.11

I will download 3.10 version to check. Everything should work in theory, but houdini 20.5 did come with a bunch of new QT bugs unfortunately.

I installed the version with python 3.11, and the same thing happens. Everything works, copy, paste, copy to Web... Only the collection button doesn't work, and its keyboard shortcut doesn't either. Nothing happens. It doesn't give any error. But it doesn't open the box to type.

Hi, I'm having trouble reproducing this error, everything seem to work fine for me.

Since H20.5 SideFX has changed the format of hotkey override files. Latest hpaste release has that update, but if you are using older hpaste - not all hotkeys might work.

Can you doublecheck that the hotkey is set on the HCollection shelf tool?

  1. open hpaste shelf tool
  2. right-click Collection tool -> Edit Tool
  3. in the menu opened - check Hotkeys tab
  4. There you should see some hotkey (default is: Shift+Tab in Network Pane)
  5. if there is no hotkey - set something you want in the "Network Pane" section (like Shift+Tab)

After those steps - the hotkey should work when pressed inside Network Pane at least it should give an error if something is not right

Hello! I've always set up my shortcut here for Hpaste, everything works perfectly until Houdini 20. I'm going to install everything from scratch. It seems to be some bug with the shortcuts. But even so, shift + TAB doesn't work for me either. If I find out what it is, I'll reply here! Thanks for your help! :)
