How to import group with usd create component sop node? 2026年8月28日21:08
The closest equivalent in LOPs/USD of SOP geometry groups, is GeomSubsets [www.sidefx.com]. You can turn primitive groups into geomsubsets, this is an option on the SOP Import/SOP CReate; points/edges aren't yet possible on the USD side (it's getting closer, I believe). Hope this helps!
Unable to adjust the camera focus plane in Karma / Solaris C 2026年8月12日13:56
What are you Shift+LMB clicking in the scene? I can imagine if a parameter were locked on the node, that might interfere with the state adjusting the focus distance correctly? It sounds like a bug, but I'm unable to reproduce it in a simple scene.
[H22] SOP > USD workflow question 2026年8月12日13:49
Yeah you use a SOP import to get the geometry into LOPs. The new nodes are just working to improve the UX for structuring scenes in SOPs before they end up in USD.
