I will link to a previous recommendation to delete the data and cache folders from the core Omniverse installation location

The problem I am seeing is happening when starting from the CLI with the —relocatable flag and —relocation-root set to a new folder so the data and cache are created from scratch so this solution is not viable

Is it possible that the visiblilty is toggled to invisible on file save or on file open.

What I can do to investigate is save the file as ASCII and inspect the file before and after saving

But I have wasted 5 hours on this bug, because you can fix it temporarily in a GUI session and see a mesh turned on but when working with the CLI you only ever get the invisibility invisible result

Clearly for my use case I need the file to match the saved state and to work reliably each time every time

I am working with Omniverse Machinima 2023.2, which is abandoned, but I need the mesh to mesh binding from the toolkit contained within Machinima, is this available to be used as an extension in Omniverse Kit elsewhere?

Hi Samuel,  
Thanks for posting this. Unfortunately, it is very hard to support a very old and discontinued product like Machinima. This was built on kit many versions ago. I tried to open your file, and it is just the environment without textures.

I am not clearly understanding your actual issue. I tried to watch your video explaining it, but the audio seems messed up. I think what you are asking is, how to open a usd file with it remembering whether something is set to invisible or not ? I know that USD Composer does this. I cannot be sure about the old Machinima.

Let me see if I can ask someone here. Have you tried this file in the brand new USD Composer ? I think you need to switch over.

You have misunderstood.

The file is saved with the default setting of visibility set to “inherited” but when the file is opened in the application `Omniverse Machinima 104.2+release.3.518fd52a.tc` we see the mesh is set to “invisible” regardless of the fact the setting in the USDA file is clearly set to “inherited”

I can try this with the latest version of Composer.

But there is an extension that I need to use that is part of the extension Audio2Face Utility

see screen shot

Which makes this graph

Via the Animation \> Audio2Face Toolbox \> Mesh \> ConnectPoints

or in code

`from omni.anim.toolbox.mesh import connectPointsTool`

```auto
def connect_them(shape1: str, shape2: str):
    ctx = omni.usd.get_context()
    ctx.get_selection().set_selected_prim_paths([shape1, shape2], True)
    connectPointsTool()

```

maybe some of these tools do the same thing

Opening the file created in `Omniverse Machinima 104.2+release.3.518fd52a.tc` in `USD Composer 105.1.2+release.138975.ece658d9.tc` results in a SEGSIGV crash.

I will get the crash report now.

So here is the result with the `connectPoints` turned off in Machinima 104.x.y, result from Composer 105.x.y coming up soon.

Ok but why are you manually setting the property to inherited? That is what I am not getting. You don’t have to do that. Just set it visible or invisible in the stage tree with the eyeball. Inherited would only be used in a very special occasion.

Start at the top. What are you trying to do? Load a usd file with stage hidden? Why are you needing to do this in the command line?

Wow!

[There are two settings for visibility in USD, “inherited” and “invisible”](https://openusd.org/dev/api/class_usd_geom_visibility_a_p_i.html#a9fd31d514233ed8b0c06332eb8de4801)

Have a look at the NVIDIA docs

> **[Show or Hide a Prim — Omniverse Developer Guide](https://docs.omniverse.nvidia.com/dev-guide/latest/programmer_ref/usd/visibility/show-hide-prim.html)**
>
> Universal Scene Description (OpenUSD) code samples that demonstrates how to a show or hide a prim.

I am doing this from the command line because I am a software engineer and I cannot press buttons 24/7 but the tools that I can write can operate 24/7 in the hands of a user.

This visibility issue is a small grain of sand in an entire desert of functionality.
