Callback script for multiparm block

[beeemtee]

Hi,

how is it possible to attach callback scripts to multiparm block creation or deletion events? I would like to create and setup new objects inside a digital asset, when a new entity is added to a multiparm block.

thanks

Unfortunately it is not possible to attach callback scripts to multiparm blocks. Here's a post with a more technical description and a possible suggestion.

Also, you might be able to work something out now in Houdini 11 using the new per-node event callbacks and hou.nodeEventType.ParmTupleChanged but I'm not sure what kind of information that will give you in the case of a multiparm object changing.

Thanks a lot for the info. I'm sorry to hear that there is no straightforward solution to this. Nevertheless I will post any findings here.
