This does not remove the hierarchy;
it only affects the display.
Down Arrow Used to gain more information about a group of objects. Clicking the
down arrow expands the next child down from that node to show you its immediate
child node(s).
In the Mobile scene, you can see how the Main Parent node runs the show. It is the top
bar of the mobile; the second row of bars hangs from it as its children with the shapes on
the Mobile hung below them.
The toolbar across the top of the Schematic View is used for editing hierarchies in your
scene. We will experiment with reordering the Mobile hierarchy in the Schematic View in
just a moment. First, let??™s look at the tools as called out in Figure 3.46.
Display Floater Enables the Display Floater window, which gives you access to display toggles
for certain object types in the Schematic View.
Select Allows you to select objects in the Schematic View. When you select an object in a
viewport, its node in the Schematic View will be outlined in white. However, it will not
necessarily be selected in the Schematic View. If you want to be able to select an object in
either window once and have it selected in both the Schematic View and the viewports,
choose Select ??” Sync Selection in the Schematic View window.
