NAME
       usdtree - manual page for usdtree 26.08

SYNOPSIS
       usdtree [OPTIONS] inputPath

DESCRIPTION
       usdtree : Writes the tree structure of a USD file. The default is to
       inspect a single USD file. Use the --flatten argument to see the
       flattened (or composed) Stage tree. Special metadata 'kind' and
       'active' are always shown if authored unless --simple is provided.

   Positionals:
       inputPath TEXT REQUIRED
              The input file to process

OPTIONS
       -h,--help
              Print this help message and exit

       --unloaded
              Do not load payloads.

       -a,--attributes
              Display authored attributes.

       -m,--metadata
              Display authored metadata (active and kind are part of the label
              and not shown as individual items

       -s,--simple
              Only display prim names: no specifier, kind or active state.

       -f,--flatten
              Compose the stage with the input file as the root layer and
              write the flattened content.

       --flattenLayerStack
              Flatten the layer stack with the given root layer. Unlike
              --flatten, this does not flatten composition arcs (such as
              references).

       --mask PRIMPATH[,PRIMPATH...]
              Limit stage population to these prims, their descendants and
              ancestors. To specify multiple paths, either use commas with no
              spaces, or quote the argument and separate paths by commas
              and/or spaces. Requires --flatten.
