class UsdLuxBoundableLightBase : public usdrt::UsdGeomBoundable

Base class for intrinsic lights that are boundable.

The primary purpose of this class is to provide a direct API to the functions provided by LightAPI for concrete derived light types.

Public Functions

inline explicit UsdLuxBoundableLightBase(const UsdPrim &prim = UsdPrim())

Construct a UsdLuxBoundableLightBase on UsdPrim prim. Equivalent to UsdLuxBoundableLightBase::Get(prim.GetStage(), prim.GetPath()) for a valid prim , but will not immediately throw an error for an invalid prim.

inline explicit UsdLuxBoundableLightBase(const UsdSchemaBase &schemaObj)

Construct a UsdLuxBoundableLightBase on the prim held by schemaObj . Should be preferred over UsdLuxBoundableLightBase(schemaObj.GetPrim()), as it preserves SchemaBase state.

inline virtual ~UsdLuxBoundableLightBase()

Destructor.

inline operator bool() const

Boolean operator.

Returns

Return true if the contained prim is an instance of this schema using IsA, and false otherwise.

inline UsdAttribute GetExtentAttr() const

Extent is a three dimensional range measuring the geometric extent of the authored gprim in its own local space (i.e. its own transform not applied), without accounting for any shader-induced displacement. If any extent value has been authored for a given Boundable, then it should be authored at every timeSample at which geometry-affecting properties are authored, to ensure correct evaluation via ComputeExtent(). If no extent value has been authored, then ComputeExtent() will call the Boundable’s registered ComputeExtentFunction(), which may be expensive, which is why we strongly encourage proper authoring of extent.

An authored extent on a prim which has children is expected to include the extent of all children, as they will be pruned from BBox computation during traversal.

Declaration

float3[] extent

C++ Type

VtArray<GfVec3f>

Usd Type

SdfValueTypeNames->Float3Array

inline UsdAttribute CreateExtentAttr() const

See GetExtentAttr(), and also Create vs Get Property Methods for when to use Get vs Create. If specified, author defaultValue as the attribute’s default, sparsely (when it makes sense to do so) if writeSparsely is true - the default for writeSparsely is false.

inline UsdAttribute GetXformOpOrderAttr() const

Encodes the sequence of transformation operations in the order in which they should be pushed onto a transform stack while visiting a UsdStage’s prims in a graph traversal that will effect the desired positioning for this prim and its descendant prims.

You should rarely, if ever, need to manipulate this attribute directly. It is managed by the AddXformOp(), SetResetXformStack(), and SetXformOpOrder(), and consulted by GetOrderedXformOps() and GetLocalTransformation().

Declaration

uniform token[] xformOpOrder

C++ Type

VtArray<TfToken>

Usd Type

SdfValueTypeNames->TokenArray

Variability

SdfVariabilityUniform

inline UsdAttribute CreateXformOpOrderAttr() const

See GetXformOpOrderAttr(), and also Create vs Get Property Methods for when to use Get vs Create. If specified, author defaultValue as the attribute’s default, sparsely (when it makes sense to do so) if writeSparsely is true - the default for writeSparsely is false.

inline UsdAttribute GetVisibilityAttr() const

Visibility is meant to be the simplest form of “pruning” visibility that is supported by most DCC apps. Visibility is animatable, allowing a sub-tree of geometry to be present for some segment of a shot, and absent from others; unlike the action of deactivating geometry prims, invisible geometry is still available for inspection, for positioning, for defining volumes, etc.

Declaration

token visibility = "inherited"

C++ Type

TfToken

Usd Type

SdfValueTypeNames->Token

Allowed Values

inherited, invisible

inline UsdAttribute CreateVisibilityAttr() const

See GetVisibilityAttr(), and also Create vs Get Property Methods for when to use Get vs Create. If specified, author defaultValue as the attribute’s default, sparsely (when it makes sense to do so) if writeSparsely is true - the default for writeSparsely is false.

inline UsdAttribute GetPurposeAttr() const

Purpose is a classification of geometry into categories that can each be independently included or excluded from traversals of prims on a stage, such as rendering or bounding-box computation traversals.

See UsdGeom_ImageablePurpose for more detail about how purpose is computed and used.

Declaration

uniform token purpose = "default"

C++ Type

TfToken

Usd Type

SdfValueTypeNames->Token

Variability

SdfVariabilityUniform

Allowed Values

default, render, proxy, guide

inline UsdAttribute CreatePurposeAttr() const

See GetPurposeAttr(), and also Create vs Get Property Methods for when to use Get vs Create. If specified, author defaultValue as the attribute’s default, sparsely (when it makes sense to do so) if writeSparsely is true - the default for writeSparsely is false.

inline UsdRelationship GetProxyPrimRel() const

The proxyPrim relationship allows us to link a prim whose purpose is “render” to its (single target) purpose=”proxy” prim. This is entirely optional, but can be useful in several scenarios:

  • In a pipeline that does pruning (for complexity management) by deactivating prims composed from asset references, when we deactivate a purpose=”render” prim, we will be able to discover and additionally deactivate its associated purpose=”proxy” prim, so that preview renders reflect the pruning accurately.

  • DCC importers may be able to make more aggressive optimizations for interactive processing and display if they can discover the proxy for a given render prim.

  • With a little more work, a Hydra-based application will be able to map a picked proxy prim back to its render geometry for selection.

Note

It is only valid to author the proxyPrim relationship on prims whose purpose is “render”.

inline UsdRelationship CreateProxyPrimRel() const

See GetProxyPrimRel(), and also Create vs Get Property Methods for when to use Get vs Create.

UsdPrim GetPrim() const

Return this schema object’s held prim.

SdfPath GetPath() const

Return the SdfPath to this schema object’s held prim.
