Parent Options

Use these options to set what happens when you select Edit > Parent. See also Parent or Unparent objects and View and edit the hierarchy of nodes.

Parent Method

Select what you want done with the selected object:

Move Objects

Move the object from its current parent to the new parent (the last selected object).

Add Instance

Create an instance under the new group instead of moving the object.

Preserve Position

Turn Preserve Position on to preserve the overall world-space position by changing the parented objects’ transformation matrix.
