How to temporarly lock an asset to another in USD Composer

Hi all, hope your are doing well.

I’m trying to make a basic animation where a forklift come and take a box using its fork in USD Composer using keyframe.
I saw that previously it was possible to use constraints in Omniverse Create but now it seems to be deprecated.

How can I temporary link my box to my forklift to make them move together nicely and then drop it and unlink them?

Thanks

Thanks for the inquiry. I understand what you are asking. Let me see if I can find a solution for you with the dev team. I do know that you may need to do a “swap out” trick for this. What I mean by that is that you have box A, for non-connected animation, and box B which is permanently connected to the forklift. Then you simply hide A and unhide box B for the forklift portion, and then switch back to box B after it drops it.
