Autodesk Maya: Blue Pencil Support in ExtractPlayblast

AYON's ExtractPlayblast does not capture Blue Pencil annotations in review publishes, even when correctly configured in viewport settings.

Current Behavior

• Blue Pencil annotations are visible in Maya viewport

• Manual playblasts (via Maya UI) include Blue Pencil

• AYON review publishes omit Blue Pencil annotations

• Setting “Grease Pencils”: true in showhas no effect

• Setting "bluePencil": true in pluginObjects has no effect

Root Cause

Maya uses separate optionVars for playblast display settings that are independent from modelEditor flags. The critical missing optionVars are:

• playblastShowBluePencil

• playblastOverrideViewport
