XR Studio enables you to manage different type of files. Each file type is shown in the Project Explorer with a different icon.

These are the different types of files that appear in the Project Explorer.

File Type	Icon	Description
Graphic Context		Represents a component of the VR environment with all its items.
XML Script		An XML file that contains a piece of code.
XRS Script		An XRS file that contains a piece of code.
Config		A configuration file for setting up the parameters of an included logic module.
Language		Each project contains one and only one language localization file. It is used to create language localizations and text.
Scenario		A scenario is a set of hierarchical and connected tasks. It is used to provide storyboards and self-learning capabilities.
Shader library		A Shader library enables you to create, update, and maintain shaders.
External		You can add to project files that are not used by the application runtime, but that can be helpful for the project development. For example, log files or PDF documentation. These files do not open inside the XR Studio, but with their default application.

The context menu displays when you right-click an item in the Project Explorer.

This table lists context menu features.
