Add items to the ordered menu in HDA

[oslo 16]

Hello guys !!! Anybody can help ?

 

I want to add items to the ordered menu in HDA by python. On example after user press button in the HDA, script add some items to the menu.

 

Thanks

can't you use Menu Script to rebuild your menu however you like?

if you want a place to store and menu values you can for example use hidden string parm, or node user data, then let your menu script just look them up, and your button callback script to change them or something

I want to connect directly button and menu. When user will press the button, menu will be filled.

 

I cant understand how to make it with menu script.

as I described, let button alter user dara or some string parm

then let menu just lookup that parm or user data and populate the menu, I can make example once I have some time

Tomas is it great, thank you. Cool if we will have ability in the future releases of houdini to build gui for HDA with PySide.
