- Allow Invisible Parent - invisible parenting is when one object is parented to another object,
but not within the same encapsulation.
When active the link between the parent and the child nodes will not be visible in the link editor.
When inactive the child nodes will be relocated to the same encapsulation as the parent and their relationship will be visible in the link editor. - Copy - a copy of the selection will be used for parenting or grouping. The group or parent nodes are not copied.
- Set Source Node(s) - preselect the source/child nodes and press the button to save the selection
- Set Destination Node - preselect the destination/parent node and press the button to save.
- Move 2D - move the source nodes into the destination node.
- Move to Scene - move the preselected source nodes to the scene level.
- Move 3D - move the preselected source nodes into a 3D destination node..
- Parent - parent the source nodes to the destination node.
Parent:
Select scene objects to be the children and add a final object to the selection to be the parent and press the button.
UnParent:
Select the child objects to be un-parented and press the button.
Add to Group:
Select scene objects then add a group object to the selection and press the button. The objects will be added to the group with 2D encapsulation.
Add to 3D Group:
Select scene objects then add a 3D group object to the selection and press the button. The objects will be added to the group with 3D encapsulation.
