Hi
Volumes in Houdini can store data in 16-bit float, but i wonder, how to extract such data in Python.
For point attributes, i can use something as:
geo.pointFloatAttribValuesAsString("a", float_type=hou.numericData.Float16)
( thanks for ali , http://forums.odforce.net/topic/19848-numpy-question/?hl=float_type#entry119038 )
But for volume, the "similar" method, allVoxelsAsString() , haven't any parameter for explicitly set data type (other then the default Float32).
Is there solution other then extract 32-bit data from initially 16-bit(!) volume and then convert it back to float16 ?
Thanks in advance
