Drag a link off a pin onto empty canvas to open a create-node menu at
the drop point (the editor's QueryNewNode path), filtered to nodes with a
type-connectable pin; the chosen node is created and auto-wired to the
source pin. Direction is handled both ways — drag from an output makes a
downstream consumer, from an input an upstream producer. Type matching is
lenient (exact, or same scalar/2-/3-/4-vector class), mirroring what USD/
MaterialX networks already tolerate; the target pin is the first exact
match else the first connectable. RenderNodeSearchMenu gained an optional
linkSource arg so the TAB popup and this share one implementation, and
CreateShaderNode now returns the created path. Create and connect are two
undo steps.
Materials list: double-click a row starts an inline rename (mirrors
SceneHierarchyPanel — Enter commits, focus-loss/Esc cancels) through
RenamePrimCommand, which fixes up bindings/arcs via UsdNamespaceEditor.
Selection and the open graph follow the rename. This repurposes the row's
double-click, which previously opened the graph; opening stays on the
Show Graph button.

Toolbar: every action is now an icon button (tooltip carries the label,
text fallback with no icon set) via a local iconBtn helper matching the
StageEditor/Timeline convention — Create Material, Presets, Create + Bind,
Bind Current. Icons fill the standard button height (GetFrameHeight, zero
frame padding) so the row stays uniform.
Browser: the materials list and the create-node list are now split by a
draggable HorizontalSplitter (sibling to the column VerticalSplitter)
instead of a fixed 45% / separator; m_browserListRatio holds the list's
share (clamped 0.15-0.85). Create-node entries get a per-category glyph
(Material/Texture/Geometry/Light/Utility) sized to the text line height.
Silence the temporary node-editor drag-regression tracing: the
[NodeGraph] event-trace block is #if 0'd, its PersistNodePosition logs
commented, and the [ed] g_AxNodeEditorDebugLog hook install is commented
out (the vendored editor's dumps are guarded on that hook).

Move the imgui-node-editor subset the build actually compiles from
third_party/imgui-node-editor to src/ui/NodeEditor (version-controlled,
MIT LICENSE included). FindImguiNodeEditor.cmake points at the new
location; CMakeLists excludes src/ui/NodeEditor from UI_SOURCES so it
isn't compiled twice.
Material editor presets: a Presets menu (disabled with no open material)
builds a UsdPreviewSurface + UsdUVTexture graph fed by an st primvar
reader, or a MaterialX standard_surface + image graph fed by a texcoord
node. Each is one idempotent, undoable command that re-normalizes layout.
Create Material becomes an icon button. New nodes route through
FindFreeCanvasSpot so a creation never lands on top of an existing node
(overlapping nodes fight over the editor hit test and become undraggable).
Shader-ball preview: pick a previewable output (terminal or 3/4-component
color-like) instead of always the first output, so scalar-only nodes keep
the whole-material preview rather than failing Storm codegen. Per-shape
camera frame-fit margins and auto-clip framing.
Fixes: DeletePrimCommand::Undo recreates missing destination ancestors
before SdfCopySpec (parent material may have been deleted after the
command ran). ConfigWindowsMoveFromTitleBarOnly stops a content-area drag
in the node canvas from moving the whole Material Editor window.
Temporary (marked for removal once the node-editor drag regression is
diagnosed): main.cpp mirrors LOG_INFO to %APPDATA%\UsdLayerManager\
debug.log; a g_AxNodeEditorDebugLog hook in the vendored editor plus a
[NodeGraph] event-trace block in RenderNodeGraphCanvas dump click/drag/
selection/position-save state.

Preview geometry dropdown: Sphere / Cube / Cylinder (native prims),
Teapot and Hair (bundled resources/preview/*.usdc - teapot tessellated
from the Newell patch data with the Blinn 1.3x height correction, hair
as 220 procedural B-spline strands), and Cloud Volume (UsdVolVolume
over the OpenVDB bunny_cloud sample, downloaded at CMake configure and
gitignored like the HDRIs). Shapes live under one scope with the
material bound on it; switching activates one shape and reframes the
camera. Missing assets drop out of the dropdown. usdVol added to the
USD link set. The camera starts in a Maya-style 3/4 view.
Node property values switch from Input* fields back to draggable
controls (Ctrl+click to type): live-apply while dragging, one undo

Prims with authored references or payloads get a section below the
prim header listing every list-op entry (explicit/add/prepend/append/

The create-node list is now a two-level tree: a header per node source
(USD, MaterialX, Arnold, Cycles - from the Sdr sourceType, with glslfx
and OSL merged into USD so core nodes don't appear twice) containing
Hypershade-style category sub-trees (Material / Texture / Geometry /
Utility / Light) derived from Sdr context, terminal output types, role,
and name keywords. Duplicate collapsing is per (source, label) so
same-named nodes from different providers both stay; searching forces
all sections open. The TAB popup shows [Source/Category] per entry.
The browser and preview columns get drag splitters (viewport-divider
styling, clamped widths); the canvas absorbs the remainder.

Fixes 'No spec at </Materials/...> when trying to set field
primChildren' during pin edits: the per-revision wipe used raw spec
surgery (RemoveNameChild/RemoveProperty) plus a ClearReferences/
AddReference cycle that briefly leaves the material's over spec empty
and inert, which Sdf cleanup can delete out from under later authoring.
The reference to the source material is now authored only when the
material changes (shared in-memory layers recompose live), and all
node-preview overrides live in the preview stage's session layer,
wiped wholesale with SdfLayer::Clear — no spec-level removal remains,
and switching materials no longer leaves stale overrides behind. The
edit target is pinned to the root layer so the rig never lands in the
cleared session layer.

Same table anatomy as the attribute inspector: authored-state (a)
mini-button with path/type tooltip and copy-path popup, fixed name
column, stretch value column with row striping. Widgets switch to the
same vocabulary (InputFloat/InputScalarN %.4f, InputInt, default
ColorEdit swatches) committing on deactivation, and connected inputs
render as '-> node.output'. Preview column widens to 320 to fit; the
shader ball centers in it. Per-edit undo commands are kept.

Browser column lists all scene materials plus a searchable create-node
list; Show Graph (or double-click) loads a material into the node-graph
work area. The graph shows the entire network including MaterialX
(.mtlx) node graphs, resolving connections through NodeGraph boundaries
via UsdShadeUtils::GetValueProducingAttributes, with layered auto-layout
for nodes lacking authored uiPosition. Canvas navigates viewport-style
(Alt+MMB pan / Alt+RMB zoom) and TAB opens a Nuke-style search popup.
Selecting a node shows a typed property editor (live-apply, one undo
command per edit) and previews that node's output on the shader ball.
The preview renders through its own Hydra engine into a scratch stage
that composes the material via a reference to the source root layer (so
referenced .mtlx materials work), re-renders until progressive delegates
(Arnold/Cycles/Embree) converge, and lights with HDR dome presets
(External/Room/Interior/Sunset; CC0 Poly Haven EXRs fetched at CMake
configure). texture:format is authored latlong explicitly - left
automatic, hdArnold falls back to Arnold's angular fisheye default -
and hdCycles gets a -90 X pole rotation to match Storm's +Y-pole
sampling.
Mutations go through new ICommand subclasses (create shader node,
connect/disconnect attrs). imgui-node-editor is vendored (gitignored)
with a local one-line patch: c_ScrollButtonIndex 1->2 for MMB pan.

The divider hit-zones are raw screen rects; gate them on

Attributes with SdfVariabilityVarying now show a (k) button when the
timeline is at a non-default frame. Orange = exact time sample at the
current frame; gray = no sample here. Clicking keys the current value

Right-click on any attribute or relationship name opens a context menu
with "Clear Override" (greyed when nothing is authored at the edit

Prims with UsdShadeMaterialBindingAPI now show a "Material Binding"
collapsing section above the transform block, listing Direct / Preview /
Full purpose bindings and the resolved computed material path.
RenderPropertiesTable now groups attributes and relationships under
CollapsingHeader sections named after their USD API schema. Base-type
attributes (e.g. Mesh, Xform) appear first; applied API schema groups

Uncategorised attributes are bucketed by namespace prefix (primvars,
inputs, outputs, …). xformOp attrs are still filtered out (shown in the

Document the decision to replace HdxColorCorrectionTask with a custom GL
post-process (linear render + sRGB/OCIO correction via the OCIO GPU API),
including rationale, pipeline, consequences, and alternatives considered.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Hydra's HdxColorCorrectionTask rendered prims black in OCIO mode and could
corrupt the GlfDrawTarget bind stack on failure (skipping Unbind), blacking
out every later frame including sRGB. Replace it with our own GL post-process:
the scene renders linear (RGBA16F) and is corrected by a fullscreen shader --
linear->sRGB encode, or OCIO via the OCIO 2.1 GPU API (GpuShaderDesc plus
uploaded 1D/3D LUT textures). OCIO build failures fall back to sRGB (never
black) and USD diagnostics are routed to the app log.
- core: ViewportColorCorrector + ApplyViewportColorCorrection in UsdSceneRenderer
- utils: OcioConfigParser enumerates displays/views/colorspaces/looks from $OCIO
- ui: gear-menu OCIO controls (ViewportTile) + per-viewport persistence (ViewportPanel)
- Application: point $OCIO at the bundled ACES 1.2 config
- CMake: link/copy OpenColorIO, download ACES 1.2 config; plus hdCycles build
config (disable OpenVDB/Embree, fix TBB/OpenSubdiv/Imath dirs, exclude CRT DLLs)
- main: pre-flight plugin DLL load check to skip plugins with missing deps

Adds a ⚙ icon button to the right of the AA toggle in each viewport
tile's compact toolbar. Clicking it opens a dropdown with:
- Shading submenu: Smooth Shaded / Flat Shaded / Wireframe on Surface /
Wireframe / Unlit (new ShadingMode enum driving UsdImagingGLDrawMode)
- Lighting submenu: Camera Headlight / Scene Lights + Dome Light toggle
- Show Grid and Anti-Aliasing toggles (mirrored from icon buttons)
- Bounding Box submenu: None / Per Object / All Selection
- Background submenu: Dark Gray / Black / Light Gray / Midnight Blue
ShadingMode is persisted in viewport_settings.ini alongside the existing

ViewportTileSettings struct captures: render delegate, show grid, AA, background
color, bbox mode, ambient-light-only, dome-light flags.
ViewportPanel::SaveSettings() writes a simple INI file (layout + one [TileN]
section per tile) to %APPDATA%\UsdLayerManager\viewport_settings.ini on
Application::Shutdown().
ViewportPanel::LoadSettings() is called at the end of Application::Initialize()
— after the viewport panel is constructed but before the first frame — so the
saved render delegate is picked up by UsdSceneRenderer::InitRenderer() on the
first Render() call. Layout (Single/HSplit/VSplit/Quad) and split ratios are
also restored, creating the correct number of tiles before settings are applied.

Two independent fixes for the install layout:
1. Cycles bundles old MSVC CRT DLLs (MSVCP140 v14.34, VCRUNTIME140 v14.34)
that are placed in install/bin/ via the CYCLES_INSTALL_DIR copy. These take
precedence over System32 on the DLL search path. sycl8.dll (built with newer
VS2022 CRT v14.42) calls functions that don't exist in the old version, causing
ERROR_DLL_INIT_FAILED (1114) when hdCycles.dll loads embree4 -> sycl8. Fix:
exclude MSVCP140*.dll, VCRUNTIME140*.dll, ucrtbase*.dll, api-ms-win-*.dll from
the install(DIRECTORY cycles_install/) rule. The system VC++ Redistributable
satisfies these at runtime.
2. usd_python.dll (the OpenUSD Python bindings DLL) was compiled against Python
3.11 while our build targets Python 3.12. Add auto-detection of python311.dll
from common install paths and deploy it to both the build output and install/bin/
so the dependency chain hdCycles->usd_python->python311 is satisfied.

plugin/usd without a trailing slash made CMake install the directory
itself under bin/usd/, landing plugins at bin/usd/usd/hdStorm/ etc.
(one level too deep). Adding the trailing slash installs the contents
directly into bin/usd/, matching the build-directory layout that
POST_BUILD produces via copy_directory.
Also removed the now-redundant install(FILES hdStorm.dll DESTINATION bin)
which was placing the DLL in the exe root instead of bin/usd/ where
plugInfo.json's LibraryPath expects it.
hdEmbree, hdArnold, and hdCycles install rules were already correct
(they explicitly target bin/usd/); this change makes the base USD
plugin/usd contents consistent with them.

Sets io.IniFilename to %APPDATA%\UsdLayerManager\imgui.ini right after
CreateContext so ImGui never touches the working directory for layout

m_iniFilePath on ImGuiContext holds the string so the pointer stays valid
for the lifetime of the context.

Three bugs prevented Apply from working correctly after the first bake:
1. m_needsRefresh spuriously set during bake
ClearAllTimeSamples/WriteChannelValue fire OnObjectsChanged synchronously.
Since the channel is dirty at that moment, it was skipped, setting
anyMatchedChannel=false and triggering m_needsRefresh=true. This caused
RefreshFromStage() on the next frame, clearing m_selection and rebuilding
m_channels — dropping the user's edit context. Fixed with m_suppressNotice:
set true during USD writes so OnObjectsChanged is a no-op during bake.
2. Prim-level metadata notice triggered rebuild
SaveBezierToMetadata calls SetCustomDataByKey, which fires a notice with
changed==primPath. No attribute channel matched, so m_needsRefresh=true
again. Fixed in OnObjectsChanged: skip changed==primPath (metadata-only
changes), and mark a path as "known" even if the channel is dirty (so
the refresh gate only fires for genuinely new/unknown attributes).
3. Dangling chPtr in undo/redo closures
After RefreshFromStage() cleared and rebuilt m_channels, the raw pointer
captured in closures pointed to freed memory. Replaced with a findCh
lambda that searches m_channels by attr path + component at call time.
Falls back to m_needsRefresh=true if the channel no longer exists.

Context menu fix:
- Move RMB popup and hit-test lambdas before the early-return guard in
HandleCanvasInput so BeginPopup is called every frame while the popup is
open, regardless of whether the mouse has left the canvas area.
Previously the early-return fired (hovered=false) the moment the mouse
moved onto the menu, silently closing it before any item could register.
Bezier metadata persistence:
- On Apply/bake, write each channel's BezierKey array into
prim.customData["curveEditor"]["channels"][attrName@component] as flat
double[]/int[] arrays (times, values, inDt, inDv, outDt, outDv, broken).
- FitCurveFromSamples tries LoadBezierFromMetadata first; falls back to
Catmull-Rom only when no saved entry exists, so tangent shapes survive
file save/reload.
- Bake undo command snapshots the entire curveEditor customData value and
restores it on Ctrl+Z, keeping metadata in sync with sample history.
Always-visible tangent handles:
- Remove keySel guard so in/out handle lines and circles render for every
keyframe, not just selected ones.
- hitTestHandle now iterates all visible channels/keys so any handle can
be clicked directly without first selecting its parent keyframe.
- Clicking a handle auto-selects the parent key as well, keeping context
menu operations (Flatten, Break, Delete) consistent.

Maya-style Graph Editor panel (View > Curve Editor) that fits Catmull-Rom
Bezier curves through USD time samples, allows interactive editing with
tangent handles, and bakes the result back to dense linear samples on Apply.
Key behaviours:
- Left panel lists all animated attributes of the selected prim, decomposed
into per-component channels (translate [X/Y/Z], etc.) with colour swatches
and visibility toggles
- ImDrawList canvas: smooth Bezier polylines, always-visible tangent handle
lines/circles, diamond keyframe markers
- Pan (MMB/Alt+drag), zoom (scroll / Shift+scroll), Frame All (F)
- LMB drag moves keyframes; tangent handle drag reshapes curve with mirrored
or broken handles; box-select for multi-selection
- Double-click canvas adds a keyframe; Delete removes selected keyframes
- RMB context menu: Delete, Flatten, Break/Unify Tangents, Auto Tangents
- Simplify toggle (Ramer-Douglas-Peucker) reduces baked sample count
- Time cursor draggable to scrub the timeline
- UsdNotice::ObjectsChanged listener re-fits clean channels whenever the
stage changes externally (Property Panel edits, Auto-Key, undo/redo),
while preserving channels with unsaved Bezier edits
- Bake is a single undoable AttributeSetCommand (Ctrl+Z restores original
sparse samples); Revert discards in-editor edits without touching USD

Mirrors usdview behaviour -- when the stage has at least one UsdLux
light the default camera fill-light is disabled so the scene is lit
purely by its authored lights. StageHasAuthoredLights() early-exits

Draw a type-appropriate wireframe gizmo for every UsdLux light in the stage,
mirroring the existing camera-wireframe overlay (dedicated VAO/VBO reusing the
bbox shader, drawn on top with depth-test off).
Shapes, built in the light's local space and pushed through its local-to-world
transform:
- SphereLight 3 orthogonal circles (radius); axis-cross when treatAsPoint
- RectLight width x height rectangle + emission direction line
- DiskLight circle + direction line
- CylinderLight two end-cap circles + connectors (radius/length)
- DistantLight sun disc + parallel rays
- DomeLight 3 large display-scaled circles
Selected lights draw accent orange, others warm yellow.
Verified by creating a SphereLight (3-circle sphere) and a RectLight
(rectangle) in-app: distinct shapes, correct selected/deselected colours,
gizmos visible over geometry.

The matrix->Euler decode at the end of a rotate drag used the rows of the
prim's initial rotation matrix (its already-rotated frame) as the
DecomposeRotation axes. But UsdGeomXformCommonAPI::SetRotate interprets the
written angles about the CANONICAL x/y/z axes, so the two only agreed when
the prim was at zero rotation -- the authored orientation desynced from the
manipulator the moment the prim already carried a rotation.
Decompose the result matrix about the canonical axes instead, matching how
SetRotate reconstructs it. The result-matrix computation (which correctly
tracks the visual ring axis) is unchanged.
Verified numerically via the real XformCommonAPI authoring path: from
rotateXYZ=(30,45,60), a +20deg object-X drag now authors exactly
(50,45,60) (err 0.0) vs the old decode's (41.07,27.07,66.61) (err 0.287).
Assumes RotationOrderXYZ (the XformCommonAPI default); non-XYZ orders are
mapped as before -- noted in a code comment.

Adds HDARNOLD_ROOT and ARNOLD_LOCATION cache variables to detect and deploy
the arnold-usd Hydra render delegate (hdArnold.dll, ndrArnold.dll) built from
arnold-usd Arnold-7.4.0.0 against MtoA 5.5.0. DLLs land in usd/ alongside
their plugInfo metadata dirs so LibraryPath ../hdArnold.dll resolves correctly.
ai.dll is copied to the exe root for Windows DLL search resolution.

plugInfo.json declares LibraryPath '../hdEmbree.dll', relative to usd/hdEmbree/,
so the DLL must live at usd/hdEmbree.dll. The previous POST_BUILD copied it to
the exe root, causing the module-not-found error at load time.
Fix: copy hdEmbree.dll into usd/ for POST_BUILD and install(). embree3.dll
stays in the exe root where Windows DLL search finds it as a dependency.
