Apart from standard ui parameters, are there any part of the octane plugin exposed to python ?

Right now my goal is to control the ipr window size.
I am trying to make shader ball previewer by dynamically creating the few necessary nodes to replicate octane standalone shader ball scene.

Nope, sorry. Currently there are no commands to set the IPR window size from a script. You can set the default IPR window size in the preferences.

There is a command to open the IPR window (Octane_openIPR). I could add a new command to set the IPR size before open the window. Let me think about it.

Hi Juanjgon,

any updates on some python access to cancel rendering ?

To cancel the render or to close the IPR window?

to cancel the render preferably.
I am trying to avoid overwriting existing image files.
but having access to closing IPR window could be handy in some situations.

Ahh, yes, I've just remembered this feature request. It is in my TODO list. I could also add an option to skip the rendered frames.

-Juanjo

yes that would be nice too

Hi again,
I didn't think of that before, but if it is easier for you, I don't mind if these commands are Hscript, as long as it's possible to to use the python hou.hscript() method.
