Editing imported USD

Hello,
We have a master USD, that people should only be able to read from, but when importing this USD into their own USD we would want them to be able to remove primitives/shapes/groups… When we try this workflow we run into “Cannot remove ancestral prim”.
Would it not be possible to enable the removal of assets in the master/ancestor but keep the delta as it is done when moving/changing materials/resizing the assets?

Hi @jonatan.bergstrom! I have alerted the development team. Thanks for reaching out!

@jonatan.bergstrom This kind of workflow is not supported for now to remove prims that are referenced from external USD. We are discussing internally about this and see how we can improve this. We’ll get back to you once we have decision. Thanks for your patience.

@jonatan.bergstrom This request has been in our queue for a long time. And we recently support to remove (deactivate) prims of imported USD already, which will be released along with our future release (2022.2.0). Thanks for your patience.
