Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues and added correct labels.
Please describe the feature you have in mind and explain what the current shortcomings are?
These are two variants for houdini.
One of them is houdinifx.exe commonly used.
Another one is usdview shipped with houdini.
Auto-opening last workfile (hip scene) is very handy when launching houdini.
But it dosn't make sense to loading hip file when startuping hython with usdview.
In fact, it just crash usdview to passthrough hip file as last argument.
For now, the filtering options inside ayon core addon dosn't help with the above scenario.
Of course, it can be turn off with action options like this.
But sadlly, it's not a global configuration, which means it must be setup on each artist side.
It's error-prone and leading to extra workload.
Suggested implementation?
So, I think it might be a good idea to adding an explicit toggle option for skipping open last workfile alongside application variant definition.
Just like this
And here is my tricky way to work around.
First, add a special argument when defining variant.
Then override data arguments inside
applications_1.1.3\ayon_applications\manager.py
