Hide the parameter that are not relevant in the UI

That would be nice to take advantage of the disable when and hide when feature of houdini parameter UI.
By using the conditional synthax for ex :

if image type in rop output is png hide all ui parameter that are exr relevant. with the synthax :

Code: Select all

{ HO_img_fileFormat == f3 } { HO_img_fileFormat == f4 } 
if render layers in rop are not active then hide the parameter that are not relevant.
if stereo output is disable in render target then hide all parameter that are stereo cam relevant
etc ...

it's not a big deal to do our own custom ROP but that would be nice to include it by default.
to get an UI as concise as possible and expose only what is relevant.

Thanks. Yes, the hide/ghosting parameters feature is used in some places of the ROP node, but it is true that there are other places that can be improved. I'll try to work on it.

Thanks,
