usd_variants

Since17.5

string [] usd_variants(<stage>stage, string primpath, string variantset)

This function returns the variants available in the given variant set.

<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.

variantset

The variant set name.

Returns

The names of the variants available in a given variant set on a given primitive.

Examples

// Get the variants in the variant set "shapes" on a "shape_shifter" primitive.
string variants[] = usd_variants(0, "/geo/shape_shifter", "shapes");
