Houdini hair problem

[sinarhp]

Hi everyone

I just recently started playing around with Houdini hair after finishing a very difficult job done with Yeti.

 

I am trying to assess houdini hair as a possible new solution for hair and fur.

 

But I have one small issue that I cant find any solutions for it:

 

Basically after setting up the fur for the model (I am using the Add Fur tool from the shelf) everything is fine and I can use the different attributes like length and bend to adjust the overall look,

 

But as soon as I groom the fur using one of the shelf tools like "length adjust" or "cut hair" I cant tweak the overall attributes like length or bend etc anymore and it seems like after grooming the hair using any of these tools I lose the ability to adjust the overall attributes.

 

I was wondering if this is probably a bug in hair tool?

 

I have attached my test scene as well.

 

I would appreciate any helps.

 

Thanks in advance!

I played around with fur a bit and had the same problem. grooming just instantly disables changing any parameters. weird.
