Overview#

AOV Menu is an extension that integrates an AOV-related menu into the Omniverse Kit UI. It provides a dedicated menu interface for controlling AOV actions, letting users easily interact with functionalities specific to AOV workflows. The extension loads upon startup and handles the registration of menu actions seamlessly, streamlining access to AOV features.

Functionality#

Menu Integration: The extension registers AOV menu actions that become accessible through the main menu. These actions are designed to trigger appropriate behaviors and provide users with immediate access to AOV functionalities.
Action Management: It internally calls functions to register and deregister actions, ensuring that the action state is managed appropriately during startup and shutdown events. This structured approach helps maintain consistency in the menu state across sessions.

Configuration#

SVG Icon Color: A notable configuration setting is provided for controlling the SVG icon colors on the menu. The setting exts."**omni.kit.menu.create**".original_svg_color is set to false, which means that the extension applies a default styling for SVG icons rather than using the original colors.

Relationships#

Dependencies: The AOV Menu extension builds on several other extensions including omni.usd, omni.kit.menu.utils, omni.kit.context_menu, omni.kit.commands, omni.kit.widget.layers, and omni.kit.actions.core. This interconnected architecture ensures that the menu seamlessly integrates with the overall Omniverse Kit ecosystem and other UI components.
Integration: The extension works in tandem with the established menu utility framework provided by Omniverse Kit, ensuring that menu items are consistent in appearance and functionality with other parts of the interface.

This concise overview should help users understand how AOV Menu enhances the UI by providing quick access to AOV-related functions while integrating smoothly with the broader Omniverse Kit system.
