SOP Importing indexed string attributes June 10, 2021, 12:59 a.m.

Is there a way to tell sop import to index any string attributes dynamically? They're indexed in Houdini, but they're deindexed when it comes into LOPs unless I specifically set those attributes to be indexed. In general, I just want any string attribute to be indexed. I could write a little python script to report all the string attributes here, but I'm looking for something built in, since this seems like it would be what should be a pretty standard behavior.

Thanks,
Ben

BakeTexure Rendering white Oct. 5, 2020, 1:08 a.m.

I've got the same issue, except I don't want to bake in the lighting. I want to render the point color to a texture file or a constant shaded texture to a file.

I have UVs and it renders white with point or vertex colors and with or without a constant shader.

Is there a way to bake a texture without lighting?

Remove a USD attribute from the layer it is defined? Aug. 4, 2020, 9:48 p.m.

Okay, thanks I'll look into the Sdf API :-)
I guess the same concern should apply to the stage manager too, right? Since deleting a prim from a layer won't actually delete it if the prim is defined elsewhere?
