usd_attribsize

Since17.5

int  usd_attribsize(<stage>stage, string primpath, string name)

This function returns the tuple size of a given attribute. If the attribute is an array, it returns the tuple size of the array element. E.g., for vector types,this is the number of components.

<stage>

When running in the context of a node (such as a wrangle LOP), this argument can be an integer representing the input number (starting at 0) to read the stage from. The integer is equivalent to the string form referencing a particular input, e.g., “opinput:0”.

You can also use this argument to refer to a USD file (e.g., “/path/to/file.usd”), or to another LOP node’s cooked stage using the op: as the path prefix (e.g., “op:/stage/lop_node”).

primpath

The path to the primitive.

name

Attribute name.

Returns

The tuple size of the attribute.

  • For a vector type, this is the number of components.
  • For an integer, float, or string, this returns 1.
  • For an array attribute, this returns the tuple size of the elements.

If the attribute does not exist, returns 0.

Use usd_attriblen if you want to obtain the array attribute length.

// Get the tuple size of an attribute on the cube primitive.
int tuple_size = usd_attribsize(0, "/geo/cube", "attribute_name");
