So I am working on a project which is requiring me to extract the point numbers from an arbitrary polygonal object. The most pythonic way to do what I am trying to do is this: geo = hou.Geometry() geo.loadFromFile(path/to/my/file.bgeo.sc) primPoints = [[pt.number() for pt in pr.points()] fo...

Dear colleagues, Houdini provides developers with an option to open the File-/Node-Dialog (such as hou.ui.selectFile() and hou.ui.selectNode()). However, in case I call it from the external QWidget, in my case it is PySide2. If I close this PySide2's QWindow, obviously, it causes the Houdini cr... -
