Edit USD files

Orbit around it on a floor grid; pick a part, move, turn and size it with handles or exact sizes, lay a face on the floor, mirror, recolour and change its finish, edit its texture in Images, add shapes, duplicate, hide and delete; repair and simplify meshes; check it will print (closed, its volume and weight). Save as GLB, glTF, OBJ, STL, 3MF, PLY, COLLADA, USDZ for AR on iPhone, or a picture. Opens USD in text or binary (crate) form; one that refers to other files opens what’s inside it. Saved as USD text, which every USD app reads.
