Synopsis

performanceOptions [-clusterResolution float] [-disableStitch string] [-disableTrimBoundaryDisplay string] [-disableTrimDisplay string] [-latticeResolution float] [-passThroughBindSkinAndFlexors string] [-passThroughBlendShape string] [-passThroughCluster string] [-passThroughDeltaMush string] [-passThroughFlexors string] [-passThroughLattice string] [-passThroughMeshBoolean string] [-passThroughPaintEffects string] [-passThroughSculpt string] [-passThroughWire string] [-regionOfEffect string] [-skipHierarchyTraversal boolean] [-useClusterResolution string] [-useLatticeResolution string]

performanceOptions is undoable, queryable, and NOT editable.

Performance options that are in effect may be on all the time, or they can be turned on only for interaction. In the latter case, the options will only take effect during UI interaction or playback.

Note that none of these performance options will affect rendering.

Return value

In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Flags

Long name (short name)	Argument types	Properties
-clusterResolution(-cr)	float
Sets the global cluster resolution. This value may range between 0.0 (exact calculation) and 10.0 (rough approximation)
-disableStitch(-ds)	string
Sets the state of stitch surface disablement. Setting this to "on" suppresses the generation of stitch surfaces. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-disableTrimBoundaryDisplay(-dtb)	string
Sets the state of trim boundary drawing disablement. Setting this to "on" suppresses the drawing of surface trim boundaries. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-disableTrimDisplay(-dt)	string
Sets the state of trim drawing disablement. Setting this to "on" suppresses the drawing of surface trims. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-latticeResolution(-lr)	float
Sets the global lattice resolution. This value may range between 0.0 (exact calculation) and 1.0 (rough approximation)
-passThroughBindSkinAndFlexors(-pbf)	string
Sets the state of bind skin and all flexors pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughBlendShape(-pbs)	string
Sets the state of blend shape deformer pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughCluster(-pc)	string
Sets the state of cluster deformer pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughDeltaMush(-pdm)	string
Sets the state of delta mush deformer pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughFlexors(-pf)	string
Sets the state of flexor pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughLattice(-pl)	string
Sets the state of lattice deformer pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughMeshBoolean(-pmb)	string
Sets the state of mesh booleans pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughPaintEffects(-pp)	string
Sets the state of paint effects pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughSculpt(-ps)	string
Sets the state of sculpt deformer pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-passThroughWire(-pw)	string
Sets the state of wire deformer pass through. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-regionOfEffect(-roe)	string
When enabled, an interactive update of translation commands will attempt to determine which components are being changed and only update effected components as a performance optimization while dragging a manip.
-skipHierarchyTraversal(-sht)	boolean
When enabled, hierarchy traversal of invisible objects in the scene will be disabled in order to increase performance however this has a side effect of performing redundant viewport refreshes on certain actions such as manipulations, start/end of playback, idle refresh calls, etc.
-useClusterResolution(-ucr)	string
Sets the state of cluster deformer global resolution. This allows clusters to be calculated at a lower resolution. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".
-useLatticeResolution(-ulr)	string
Sets the state of lattice deformer global resolution. This allows lattices to be calculated at a lower resolution. Valid values are "on", "off", "interactive".

Flag can appear in Create mode of command	Flag can appear in Edit mode of command
Flag can appear in Query mode of command	Flag can be used more than once in a command.
