About Live Sessions#

File and USD Stage Structure#

Live files will always exist in a directory next to the usd file in a .live directory. The root.live file will always be loaded into the Session Layer in the top most position or directly above the sublayer if Live on a sublayer. Any additional .live files that may exist for the session are children under root.live.
