Synopsis

containerAutopublishRoot

This script will check if the selected container contains dag nodes that are all within a single dag hierarchy. If it does, then the highest object within that hierarchy will be published as the root transform and parent/child anchor. If the container has no dag nodes, or consists of multiple hierarchies, this method will do nothing.

Return value

None
