how to export material stylesheet

[nicoladanese]

Hey!

I'm working on some material stylesheet for crowd, and I'm wondering if there's a way to export those rules to a separate file, so I can import it in different lighting scenes

cheers!

In the Data Tree right-click on the stylesheet and select view JSON. You can view and save the stylesheet from there.

Hey, thanks for your reply, I'm using 16.5 and it doesn't seem to work, I can't find the "view JSON" option...

You can copy-paste text from the "Shaders" tab, its a stylesheets JSON data.

 

# Select Geometry node with a stylesheet and run the script

import hou
import json

geo = hou.selectedNodes()[0]
stylesheet_data = geo.parm('shop_materialstylesheet').eval()

dataFile = 'C:/temp/stylesheet.json'
json.dump(stylesheet_data, open(dataFile, 'w'), indent = 4)
