Make Difference in Alt Drag, Copy and Paste or Rename Node in Event Callbacks

Hi,

Can it be possible to make difference in event callbacks with copy, alt drag and rename a node.

The problem is when Houdini make a node copy ( duplicate, or copy paste ) makes a renaming too.

So in scripting I could not figure out how to determine which event occurs.

So I want to know when rename or copy paste or alt drag happened.

 

THANKS IN ADVANCE !

Thanks for your answer !

Have a nice day !

I extended the code like this:

def is_copy_paste_event(kwargs):
    if not kwargs['node'].name().startswith('original') and not kwargs['old_name'].startswith('original'):
        original_node = kwargs['node'].parent().node('original0_of_%s' % kwargs['old_name'])
        return True if original_node else False
        
def checkAltDown():
    from hutil.Qt import QtWidgets
    from hutil.Qt import QtCore
    m = QtWidgets.QApplication.keyboardModifiers()
    return m == QtCore.Qt.AltModifier
        
if is_copy_paste_event( kwargs) and checkAltDown():
    print 'alt_dup', kwargs['node']
    hou.session._node_copy_mode_ = 'alt_duplication'
elif is_copy_paste_event( kwargs):
    print 'copied', kwargs['node']
    hou.session._node_copy_mode_ = 'copy_of_node'
elif not 'original' in kwargs['node'].name():
    if hasattr( hou.session, '_node_copy_mode_'):
        if hou.session._node_copy_mode_ == 'alt_duplication':
            print 'alt_renamed', kwargs['node']
        elif hou.session._node_copy_mode_ == 'copy_of_node':
            print 'copy_renamed', kwargs['node']
        del( hou.session._node_copy_mode_)
    else:
        print 'simple_renamed', kwargs['node']
