Use the Contextual Command
You can run the Center tree command in contextual mode.
- In the 3D area, select an object.
- Right-click then select Center tree.The tree is expanded down to the selected object's node and is located at the center of the screen. The object is also highlighted in the 3D area and in the tree.Notes:
- The command uses the HSO (Highlighting of Selected Objects) and not the CSO (Currently Selected Objects). In general, these two sets are identical but in some cases, the HSO might be a superset of the CSO (for example, cross highlight). Therefore, an object might be selected but not highlighted.
- When multiple objects are selected, the command applies to the last selected object.
Important: Some nodes are virtual (there is no matching object in the 3D area). To reach their children and be able to center on one of them, these nodes must be expanded. In that case, there may a price to pay in performance. The number of expanded tree nodes is defined through the Expand tree depth option in Me > Preferences> Common Preferences > General > Cache and Performance > PCS. If the node on which the Center tree command is run is deeper than the defined depth, then the node is not centered.
