Parameters

HierarchyNode
The hierarchy node to detach.

Returns

Type

Description

bool
true
if the command was appended to the list, 
false
otherwise.

Remarks

A detached node keeps its own children but is no longer reachable from Hierarchy.Root. Nothing reclaims it: the caller must either re-attach it with HierarchyCommandList.SetParent or delete it with HierarchyCommandList.Remove.
