Selecting Elements
Elements in your scene can be selected in multiple ways to enable editing and transformation: click on any element directly on the 3D canvas, use the element list in the Scene Panel for precise selection, or hold Shift while clicking to select multiple elements at once for group operations.
Selected elements are highlighted on the canvas and in the Scene Panel. Multiple selection of elements behave differently between selections.

The toolbar provides essential editing commands and transformation tools for working with scene elements.

Transforming Elements in Space
Transform your selected elements using interactive gizmos directly on the canvas or precise numerical inputs in the Transform Panel. Manipulate elements with visual transformation gizmos: drag colored axes and planes to move elements, use rotation rings to rotate around specific axes, and adjust element size uniformly or along individual axes with scale controls.
Panels
You may utilize panels to access all settings of the element's context. For example, if the Player element is selected, you can access Transformation Panel for precise transormation, or Visitor panel to (apply a ReadyPlayerMe™ avatar and make your scene a third-person game!)
Panel content changes dynamically based on your current selection. Select different elements to access their specific settings and properties.
Saving & Publishing
Click
(save) icon or use Ctrl/Cmd + S shortcut for the next time you open the scene. Do not forget to save your scenes regularly!Published scenes can be viewed in AR/VR, embedded in websites, or shared across social platforms. Update your published scene anytime by republishing with new changes.
Important Notes
Scene elements maintain their individual properties and transformations independently, allowing multiple instances of the same asset with different configurations.
Changes to assets and versions in the Asset Editor are not reflected across existing scenes. New versions of assets do not affect scenes that already use them - only future imports will use the updated versions.
