hou ui Button Colour

[pxptpw]

Hello fellow practitioners,

without going into qt , is there a way to colour buttons , slider , backround of an hda , using the hou module ?

and is there a way to output more than one output in an hda , even if you define 2 outputs in an hda it only ouputs 1 ?

thanks in adavance

I am also interested in it... I think this may not be possible without changing the Theme design itself... and will be globa.

i wish there was some extra refinements on the interface (native wise) and also allow us to further customize things like bigger buttonstrips, alignment, etc...

Yes, take a look at Split SOP for example.

Yes, Use output node and set the output index

forgot to answer my post  , without qt its very fiddly,

the answer is qt designer and pyqt , great comination and works like a charm, 

even made a radial dial selector with colours , 

get a copy of qt designer , design your ui here , import that into houdini with pyqt 

basically ,

from pySide2 import QtCore, QtWidgets, QtUiTools

ui_file is where the designed .ui frile is which is created fro qt designer 

QtUiTools.QUiLoader().load(ui_file, parentWidget=self) and this guy pulls in the ui_file from designer 

hope this helps anyone who needs this
