- If polygons are excluded from display, USD meshes will be filtered out.
- If NURBS curves are excluded from display, USD curves will be filtered out.
- If plugin shapes are excluded from display, all USD objects will be filtered out.

@kxl-adsk I talked with Will again whether we need the "fine-grain" override control and we feel that it is safer not to do it the way you suggested. The reason is that we don't have any doc about the viewport object-type filters as its behavior is quite intuitive, I assume users would expect all plug-in render items to be excluded from viewport when user chooses to exclude plug-in shapes. If we changed it to a "fine-grain" override control then we would introduce a slightly more complex logic that we had to document and made it clear. Note the behavior is an internal implementation detail so we can change it if required by users without modifying the API, therfore we can wait for a strong requirement before changing the logic. |

I need to run PF after Maya version including new API is blessed. |

Hey all, is it possible that we might need to use a higher API version number here? We're continuing to build against PR 121 at the moment while we get our licenses sorted out for the newly released PR 122, but compilation against PR 121 seems to be failing with setObjectTypeExclusionFlag() not being found.

For beta releases, we only support the last release, i.e. PR122.
…ExclusionFlag() Maya PR 121 reports its API version as 20210000 while PR 122 reports its API version as 20220000. The newly added MRenderItem::setObjectTypeExclusionFlag() function whose use was added in pull request Autodesk#1008 is only available in PR 122, not in PR 121. This means that compilation against PR 121 fails because the API version check guarding the function's usage is incorrect.
