Attribute pull-down list in OTL

[bandini]

Hey there,

 

I am wondering how to get a pull-down list of available point attributes in a text field of an OTL. Just like when you have an attributetransfer sop, there is a little arrow there with a list of available attributes from the incoming geometry.

 

Thanks!
Adam

Choose a string parameter and go to the menu tab in the parameter description.

Check use menu and in the drop down select Replace(Field + single selection...)

 

Now you need to write a python snippet in the menu script field.

result = []
geo = hou.pwd().geometry()

for attr in geo.pointAttribs():
        result.append(attr.name())
        result.append(attr.name())
return result

Dont forgett to set the Menu script Language to python...
