Editing a 3D material

You can edit 3D materials using on-screen manipulators as well as the Tool Property palette.

Selecting a 3D material

Tap the 3D material you wish to edit with the Object sub tool.Hold Shift and tap to select multiple 3D materials.

When a 3D material is selected, the Movement Manipulator, Object Launcher, and Root Manipulator will appear.For panorama materials, only the Object Launcher appears.

Using the Object List

You can manage 3D materials with the Object List in the Tool Property palette when using the Object sub tool.Tapping an item in the list will select that item on the canvas.You can hold Shift and tap to select multiple 3D materials.

In addition to the Tool Property palette, the Object List can also be found in the Sub Tool Detail palette’s Layout category, the Sub Tool Detail palette’s Object List category, and the Object Launcher.

Selecting parts of a 3D object material

If a 3D object material has multiple parts, you can select the individual parts.Once a part is selected, you can move or rotate it with the movement and part manipulators.You can also change its scale.

After selecting the 3D object material with the Object sub tool, you can select the part on the canvas with the Object sub tool or tap the part in the Object List.

You can hold Shift to select multiple parts and move, rotate, and scale them at once.

If you cannot select a part from the canvas, the 3D object material may not have selecting enabled.You can check to see if an object has selecting enabled or disabled in the Object List. To the left of each material is a row of icons.If you see an icon with an arrow and a circle-backslash, This means that selecting is disabled.

To enable selecting, tap the icon.You should now be able to select the parts of that object.

Even if the object doesn't have selecting enabled, you can still edit it by selecting parts from the Object List. Disabling selection is useful when you want to adjust the position or angle of the entire 3D object material, or if you want to prevent accidental movement.

Movement Manipulator

The movement manipulator appears at the top of a 3D material when selected with the Object sub tool.(It does not appear when a Panorama material is selected.)

When placing a 3D material, you can use the movement manipulator to adjust the position of the camera, focal point, and the of 3D material itself.

Tap the icons to switch the manipulation mode, and drag on the canvas to manipulate the object according to the selected mode.

Tap the selected mode icon again to turn the mode off and return to normal operation.
