Objects and the Workspace
Many objects in one project: naming, hiding, moving parts, grouping and ungrouping.
A project can hold any number of objects: a house, its garden wall, a bus shelter. Each object exports as its own model. The Workspace on the right lists them, with their parts underneath (the walls, a chimney, a porch).
| To | Do this |
|---|---|
| Edit an object | Click it in the Workspace, or click it in the view. |
| Select a whole part | Click the part in the Workspace. |
| Rename | Double-click the name. |
| Hide or show | The eye button. |
| Move a part to another object | Drag the part onto the other object. |
| Join objects | Ctrl-click to tick objects, then Group, or drag one object onto another. |
| Split an object | Ungroup: each part becomes its own object. |
| New, duplicate, delete | The buttons at the top of the Workspace. |
New buildings and new shapes are placed beside the others, so they never start inside each other.
