Control (UI) Default Value Function
addBounds Specifies where the overall bounds should be placed:
the root location, its direct children, both or none of
these. Adding the bounds to the root has the
disadvantage of producing the wrong bounds when
the same root location is used by several Alembic_IN
nodes (the last one being loaded will overwrite the
bounds added by the other ones).
Adding the bounds to the direct children of the root
location has the disadvantage of repeating the same
overall bounds on each child, which means that these
bounds can be potentially bigger than the real bounds
of that child.
fps 24 Sets how many frames constitute a second inside the
Alembic file.
addToCameraList For archives expected to contain cameras, this enables
a light-weight traversal of the archive at /root/world so
that the camera paths may be included in
globals.cameraList.
It's disabled by default as it does work at a shallower
point in the scene independent of any downstream
actions.
In typical cases, the initial traversal is trivial and is then
cached. Even so it's good practice, enable this only
when necessary.
