Switch proxy or render

[saikumarbonigala]

I have a scene with two referenced assets. When I use the shape proxy node to switch to the proxy version, it affects both assets simultaneously. I need to be able to control them independently, so that I can switch one asset to its proxy version while the other remains in its high-resolution (render) state. Is there a way to do this using a specific attribute in the Attribute Editor?

hi @saikumarbonigala, if you change the purpose at the proxyShape node, everything under that would be affected.

if you need to change purposes on a specific prim, you should be able to do so on the attribute editor, usually under the "Display" tab, under the prim selection, instead of the proxyShape

Hi @santosg87 For example, let’s assume my scene has 10 references, all set to proxy. If I want to switch a particular asset to render, I can select its render prim and set the Purpose to proxy Under Display, because the entire scene’s purpose is set to proxy. But if I save this scene, this change will also be saved. Is there any other solution?

We do not have per-prim display overrides for purpose at this time. It's something we can explore for the future.
