AOV data types

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I am setting up AOV's for Solaris and have run into an issue where I do not always know what data type the AOV should be.

I found this doc below showing a few AOV types and their data types.

https://docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5ARP/AOVs

Then there is this doc showing the full list of AOV's for Houdini, but WITHOUT their respective data type.

https://docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFHUG/AOVs

This is where I need some extra information from the help pages, to fill in the different data types/format for Solaris "render var" node.

So my question is, is there a full list of AOVs for Houdini/Solaris, including their data types somewhere?

Thanks,

K

You can look at the aovMenu function in scripts\python\htoa\properties.py in your HtoA install.
