Interface Overview

UnigineEditor provides the core functionality for creation and editing of virtual worlds for UNIGINE-based applications. It allows you to easily view and modify virtual worlds by adding, transforming and editing the nodes.

The main window of the UnigineEditor is made up of tabbed windows which can be easily rearranged, grouped, detatched and docked.

You can customize UI layout to fit your preferences or a specific type of work.

The default layout (shown below) gives you access to the most commonly used windows.

Main window of the Editor

Menu Bar

A Menu bar provides access to general panels and commands that are used when creating virtual worlds. It has a batch of options that allows you to:

Toolbar

The Toolbar provides access to the most frequently used working features. On the left side there are basic tools for selection and positioning of objects on the scene. Next you'll find frequently used helpers such as FPS counter, ViewCube, etc. And the last element is the Play/Pause button that allows to control animation and physics simulation.

Viewports

Scene viewport allows you to visually navigate and edit your virtual world. The number of Scene viewports that can be opened simultaneously is not limited. Parameters of each scene viewport can be adjusted separately. The window includes the following panels:

  • Camera Panel that allows you to switch between cameras, add new cameras to the current world, open the Camera Settings window or lock the current camera
  • Rendering Debug Panel that enables fast visual debugging by displaying the contents of rendering buffers
  • Navigation Panel that lets you quickly change camera speed and position.

Engine viewport is designed for application debugging and profiling it renders an image from the Engine Camera

Main Windows

Asset Browser

Asset Browser is a tool that is used to organize content in your project. The Assets System keeps all links and dependencies between the resources when you edit, rename or move them within the project. It allows you to:

  • Create and import assets
  • Organize yor assets: rename, move them between the folders and manage their hierarchy
  • View assets and add them directly to the scene

World Hierarchy

World Hierarchy window is a convenient tool for working with the hierarchy of nodes present in the scene. It allows you to:

  • Organize nodes into a hierarchy
  • Find a node by its name an quickly navigate to its location
  • Perform basic operations with the selected nodes (clone, remove, export, etc.)

Materials Hierarchy

Materials Hierarchy window serves for organizing and modifying UNIGINE materials. It allows you to:

  • Get instant access to built-in UNIGINE materials
  • Inherit materials and modify them
  • Organize materials into a hierarchy
  • Perform basic operations with the selected materials (clone, remove, etc.)

Learn more about materials hierarchy management.

Properties Hierarchy

Properties Hierarchy window is used to modify and organize nodes properties (sets of custom options). It allows you to:

  • Organize properties into a hierarchy
  • Perform basic operations with the selected properties (clone, remove, etc.)
  • Enable property-specific options

Parameters

A multi-purpose Parameters window allows you to modify parameters of any element selected in the World, Materials, or Properties window, as well as in the Asset Browser. It offers the following features:

  • Quick access to all parameters of the selected object
  • Simultaneous editing of multiple selected objects of the same type
