MAYA Export: The -ro flag leaves non renderable data in the scene. #269

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Load the file ro.mb
Export the file has alembic with -ro flag on.
Notice the camera and curve are still there.

I would expect only the cylinder and sphere to be present.

This may be a semantic issue -
The spirit of the '-ro' flag is to only export things you will need in a 
render, so a camera is definitely a part of that (since you need at least one 
camera to render from).

Also, curves are renderable in most renderers (such as Renderman or Arnold), 
just not in maya.

That makes sense I can live with that interpretation, you can close this.
