How can I change Template node's color?

[Masoud]

Hi;

When I toggle a node's flag to "Template", Houdini displays it in a gray color. How can I change color (brightness) of a template node?

 

 

Thanks for helping.

Have you tried with ctrl + RMB to fully view or see the template geometries in the viewport?

No, I mean Selectable Template to see into the viewport proper color which you're doesn't getting brightness of the color.

Or If you're asking for template node viewport geometry wireframe colors that you can change in your houdini directory / houdini / config.

There you will be able to find few different files.

You can modify in that according to your color requirements.

I add a color node with the color I want then control click the display for selectable template flag.

Hi "Vishal";

As "ejr32123" said too, by turning on " Selectable Template Flag " and adding a color SOP, I changed Templated node's color, but the problem is I don't want it be selectable, and changing config file is not a good idea I think.

 

Any other ideas?

There is actually an easy way to adjust this. You can just adjust the viewport settings for the template only. (not selectable template) You can take it off ghosted, etc.
