VisibilityAssign

The VisibilityAssign node changes the visibility setting of objects in the scene. The attribute is inherited, thus large sections of the scene graph can be made visible/invisible by assigning to common parents

A child can be explicitly set to visible even if its parent is not visible. For example, to render just one of several siblings, set the parent's visibility to 0, and set the item to render's visibility to 1. All siblings that are not explicitly marked picks up the parent's visibility setting of 0, but the item to render uses its explicitly set value of 1.

The Scene Graph tab displays visibility of each scene graph item as icons.
