Summary


Some tasks in the viewport, such as linking objects into a hierarchy, can be difficult. The Schematic View represents all data as simple rectangular nodes. These nodes make easy work of accomplishing a variety of tasks.

In this chapter, you've done the following:

  • Viewed all objects as nodes using the Schematic View window

  • Learned the Schematic View interface

  • Used the Schematic View window to select, delete, and copy objects, materials, and modifiers

  • Used the Schematic View to assign controllers and wire parameters

  • Set preferences for the Schematic View window

  • Listed views of nodes with common properties.

In the next chapter, we investigate the features in the Modify panel that enable you to modify objects with modifiers.
