### USD Outliner

The USD Outliner plugin displays the hierarchy of USD stages sourced from specific nodes (UsdStageOpen & UsdStageNew) in the active board workflow. It provides a tree view of the USD scene, allowing users to explore, select, and interact with USD prims. Selecting a prim in the outliner works in conjunction with the USD Viewer plugin for hierarchical navigation. Double-clicking a prim creates a UsdPrimGet operator linked to the selected prim for further manipulation. For more information on working with USD stages, refer to the section on [USD Catalogs](#catalogs).

What about UsdStage? We do have that node, right?

Hmm I see, do you think is worth to allow the plugin to also inspect UsdStage nodes?
For example, if we use a MayaUsdStageGet node to get a USD stage and we want to inspect it, we could just connect it to a UsdStage to allow this functionality.
Is there a way to do this with the current compatible nodes without having to look for the stage path?

Well, adding the UsdStage node might cause duplication issues with the same stage being displayed in multiple tabs of the viewer. I don't know whether this might cause problems. Also displaying a stage already loaded in maya in the Usd Viewer as well does not make a lot of sense I think.

What I mean is in general my opinion is that adding the UsdStage node will cause more issues than benefits at this point.

What do you think?

Ok, I see what you mean.
I think that if no one makes a request about this, I think we can keep the current implementation.
