Object Lister Improvements (2024.1)
We've made several improvements to the Object Lister to help speed up your modeling workflow. You can now quickly switch between Show by Layers and Show by Object using buttons in the lister, and scrubbing allows rapid selection of layer and object visibility.
Show by Layer / Show by Object
Switching between object and layer display is now accessible in single-click buttons at the top of the Object Lister.
When switching between views, the expand and collapse state as well as the scroll position are now preserved. This lets you toggle between the modes without needing to relocate objects or layers you were working on.
Set visibility state by scrubbing
You can now scrub the layer or object list to quickly turn visibility on or off for many items.
Click and hold on one visibility icon, and then by moving the cursor vertically up or down the list, all items are changed.
Scrub-select is constrained to the hierarchy level of the first selected item and only affects items in that column. The same applies to hierarchy positions in grouped objects.
Drag and drop additions
You can now drag items from the Object Lister to the Layer Bar.
Use the MMB to:
- Drag Object Lister objects to Layer Bar layers.
- Drag Object Lister layers to Layer Bar layer folders.
- Drag Object Lister layer folders to Layer Bar layer folders.
Icon Bar improvements
The Expand All/Collapse All function has been restored and added to the icon bar tools.
When resizing the Object Lister to be narrow, the icon bar tools now rearrange into two rows to keep them accessible.
