Use Scene Explorer

The Scene Explorer is coupled with the Graphic Context Editor. When the Graphic Context Editor is not open, the Scene Explorer is empty and disabled. The Scene Explorer becomes populated when a graphic context is loaded.

The content is refreshed when:

• The Graphic Context Editor is reloaded.

• New graphic content is added or removed.

View Scene Explorer

• Select the Scene Explorer tab.

Selecting items in the Scene Explorer

When selecting a node in the Scene Explorer, if the node has a corresponding geometry in the scene, that geometry is highlighted.

See Highlight 3D settings for more information on customizing the look and feel of selected elements.

When selecting a geometry in the 3D View with no associated logic node, the corresponding item in the Scene Explorer will be selected.

Multi-selection

You can select multiple elements in Scene Explorer and 3D View. Selection can include elements from the same or different model sources.

• Keep Ctrl or Shift pressed to multi-select in the Scene Explorer.

• Keep Ctrl pressed to multi-select in the 3D View.

Picking state

Elements have a picking state that can be enabled or disabled. Elements in the disabled state cannot be selected from the 3D view.

For more information, see Picking exclusion.

Context menu

You can select a node and right-select to open the Context Menu, which offers different options depending on the selected node. When the selection is multiple, only options that are compatible with all selected elements will be available.
