was curious to see if the loop idea was just something I pulled out of my ass — and its not! lol
here’s the same applied in a loop and driven with a multiparm – @flight404
you can probably also add a switch and promote it as a toggle
and use the to enable/disable conditions

You can actually drive all parms automatically on a node with the dictionary generated from attribfromparms
No python needed
1 Create a detail dict using attribfromparms called `parms` with parameter values. (Name is important) 2 Create a spare input on the node which you want to drive the parms for. Set it’s value to be the node you have your parms dict attribute on. 3 Create an integer parm called `spare_parminputindex` and set it to -1 (to point at the spare input connection)
Profit!
Click on the parm title
`$TEMP/houdini_temp/$CONTEXT_copy.cpio`
you can change all that in the display settings under markers

Found out yesterday that you can apparently edit data directly in the spreadsheet for any geometry primitive, and the add-sop! Might even work for more nodes

someone said , group + blast is much faster than an if statement + “removepoint()“ so I ran some tests (20 million points) and it is indeed true, although the absolute fastest is grouping using an integer attribute instead then doing “ @my_attrib>0“ in the blast (0.174 seconds compared to 1.594 for “if + removepoint()“, maybe this is helpful to someone 😄

it’s alright windows is weird for that
`C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Temp`
“`nodes = hou.selectedNodes()
#get pane editor = hou.ui.paneTabOfType(hou.paneTabType.NetworkEditor)
#reset images
editor.setBackgroundImages([])
#get images
b_img = [img for img in editor.backgroundImages()]
for node in nodes: for parm in node.parms(): if(len(parm.keyframes())>0): #create image img = hou.NetworkImage() size = node.size() img.setRect(hou.BoundingRect(-2,-0.5,size[0],size[1])) img.setRelativeToPath(node.path()) img.setPath(‘$SIDEFXLABS/misc/stickers/emoji/SIDEFX_CUSTOM_EMBLEMS 08.png’) b_img.append(img) break editor.setBackgroundImages(b_img)“`
use this one instead
takes the size of node in consideration
