Hi @zclongpop123, can you tell us more about the problem please? I'm not too sure what you mean by "will lost $HIP and $F". Also, can you tell us which shell rez is configured to use (cmd, powershell, pwsh, etc)?

[zclongpop123]

OS Windows 10
Rez version 3.0.0
Rez python version 3.10.11

Powershell

"'$HIP/Render/Snow_interaction/TEST/snow_interaction_02/v002/snow_interaction_02.$F4.exr'"
->
"'/Render/Snow_interaction/TEST/snow_interaction_02/v002/snow_interaction_02..exr'"

$HIP shuld be trans to /path/to/hip_file_folder
$F4 shuld be trans to 0001, 0002, .... 0999,

My render image path shuld be:

W:/projects/sngx/misc/users/jiangmingyao/Snow_interaction/Render/Snow_interaction/TEST/snow_interaction_02/v002/snow_interaction_02.0001.exr'"

but powershell can't push $HIP and $F4 in to houdini ！
