Overview

What uShape does

uShape is a fast way to create geometry directly inside the USD graph. It combines primitive generation, optional PBR-style material controls and scene transform in a single stage-producing node.

When to use it

Procedural USD primitives
Blocking and layout geometry
Simple PBR scene objects
Matte or double-sided USD shapes
