if you want to chamfer your polylines and if you change your mind…

they are a bit fidgety at times. you might want to throw a fuse and a polypath after the linechamfer. but it depends on the use case.

sure thing. This is not the optimal way of doing this. but i really wanted the resulting surface. If you instead of a volume use a grid and then delete all the “used” areas it gets faster and faster for each iteration. then you can easily generate many thousands of circles. but i leave that for you to experiment with 🙂

ok here is the fast one too… 🙂

“`C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini version\houdini\fonts“` This is the folder you need to look for. in my case , i put the jetbrains font in there and then edited the font.map file to use that font.

Houdini UI Bros, dont come at me. This was just a test. ahahaha.

Hi, I published a new hip that implements “Exact Evaluation Of Catmull-Clark Subdivision Surfaces At Arbitrary Parameter Values”😀 It computes the position and tangent plane after applying Catmull-Clark Subdivision from any position on a polygon.
I might implement application to boundary polygons someday😅

maybe it will be useful to someone else: “`bash # Apply different scale if laptop lid is closed(clamshell mode) so Global GUI # can be bigger for smaller monitor and there is no need to set that manually # and restart Houdini is_clam_shell=$(ioreg -r -k AppleClamshellState -d 1 | grep AppleClamshellState | grep “Yes\|No” -o) num_of_monitor=$( system_profiler SPDisplaysDataType | grep Resolution: | wc -l) if [[ $is_clam_shell = “No” && num_of_monitor -eq 1 ]] then export HOUDINI_UISCALE=200 else export HOUDINI_UISCALE=115 fi “`
