Overview
Hides or deactivates prims by path — trim the scene without deleting nodes.
How to
How-to
- List prim paths; they are hidden or deactivated without deleting nodes.
Inputs
| Input | What it takes |
|---|---|
| in | the image this node works on |
Outputs
| Output | Type |
|---|---|
| out | Scene |
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| targets | Text | Which prim paths this affects — space or comma separated, * matches one segment, ** any run. Empty = everything upstream. | |
| mode | Choice | deactivate | What pruning does to the matched prims: deactivate removes them from the scene (they cook as if absent), hide keeps them but invisible, show makes only the matched prims visible. deactivatehideshow |
| disabled | Bool | false | Bypass: the node passes its first input through untouched (D in the graph). The knobs keep their values for when it comes back. |
| label | Text | A note shown under the node in the graph — what this node is FOR. Never affects the render or the cache. | |
| hide_input | Bool | false | Draw the node without its input wire — a tidy graph for a node whose source is obvious (a Dot, a viewer tap). |
