Hello, When I copy and run the following code in a python sop node, editor = hou.ui.paneTabOfType(hou.paneTabType.NetworkEditor) image = hou.NetworkImage() image.setPath('$HFS/houdini/pic/Mandril.pic') image.setRect(hou.BoundingRect(0, 0, 5, 5)) editor.setBackgroundImages([image]) (which can be found here in the sideFX documentation: https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/hom/hou/NetworkImage.html ) it does indeed create the background image in the network editor. However, should you change context and then go back to the sop context where you created the background image (example: /obj/geo/python >>> /out >>> /obj/geo/python), it will have disappeared. This doesn't happen when creating the background image through the network editor's dedicated button, but I need to be able to do it with python, because I'm setting up a shelf tool template that would need to do this. Any idea why the image is disappearing with the python script? Thanks Attached is a simple scene with the python node set up. Just activate the python node, see the background image pop in place, change context, go back, and see that the background image has disappeared. background_image.hip -
How to take screenshot of the network editor?
mineloop08 posted a topic in General Houdini Questions
I want to take screenshot of the network editor. I know capture tool and Print Screen button can capture my screen but, What i want is take screenshot with massive resolution! (like 8k something,) The reason of take screenshot with high resolution is i have many nodes and i want to show up my workflow to some other peoples. Thanks and sorry about my English grammar. I`m not native speaker of English. -
Hi, Using python in houdini. I'm trying to get the full network path from the network editor that's under my mouse cursor. This is the code I have so far. I put this code in a shelf button. Assigned a hotkey to the shelf button. When I'm over my network editor I press the hotkey and this works, getting the name of the panetab of the network editor under my mouse cursor. paneTabObj = hou.ui.paneTabUnderCursor() print paneTabObj.name() #prints panetab6 in my case I'm trying to find a way to get the network path of this network editor panetab. For example "/ob/geo1/subnet2/" -
Hi Houdniks, could anybody help me out make the grid lines in the network editor be default on Houdini launch? Couldn't find anything about it so far... Thanks in advance

Hey guys, Lately I've been using the grid in my network pane (tools > show grid), and I always snap my nodes to the intersection points so it's all nice and pretty. But every so often, multiple times a day, and usually when I re-open a scene, all the nodes will be nudged off, maybe ~1/4 grid space in a given direction. It's as if the grid is being drawn in a slightly different location. Obviously it's not a huge deal to just select all the nodes and scoot them over, but it gets a little redundant having to do it in every network, and kind of defeats the purpose of having a neat grid. I'm wondering if anyone else notices this or knows of an RFE for it, or if it's just me... Thanks!
