Context Toolbars

Context toolbars are smart toolbars that contain only those commands that you can apply to the current selection. You can access a context toolbar for products, parts, materials, ambiences, or scene changes of those, by clicking once in the content panel. For products and parts, you can also open the context toolbar by selecting it in the viewport.

Product or Parts

Material Properties
Opens the Material tab in the Properties panel. This option is only available when selecting a part in the viewport.
Remove Material

Removes the material assignment from the selected part. Through the removal of the assigned material, the part gets its original state back: either no material, or the material it had assigned on import.

This option is only available in the viewport and for parts that got a material assigned in xStudio.

For more information, see Assigning Materials.

Hide Part
Changes the visibility of the selected product or part to invisible. For desktop devices, the Scene Change is then listed in the content panel.

For more information, see Scene Changes.
Show Part
Changes the visibility of the selected invisible part or product to visible.
Tip: Go to the invisible space to see hidden parts in the viewport. For more information, see Action Bar.
For desktop devices, the Scene Change is then listed in the content panel, see Scene Changes.
Snap to Ground

Moves the selected product or part to fit to the ambience ground.

By using this functionality, only the Z-axis of the product's position is adjusted. The X-axis and Y-axis remain unchanged.

For more information, see Editing Products.

Delete
Removes the selected product from the Experience. This option is only available for the whole model and not for parts.
Reset Part to Default

Removes all Scene Changes like, for example, transformations or scaling from the part or product.

This option is only available in the viewport and for parts and products on which at least one Change was made in the scene.

Reset Material to Default

Removes all Scene Changes like, for example, color tweaking from the material that is assigned to the part.

This option is only available in the viewport and for parts that have a material assigned on which at least one Change was made in the scene.

Show Product Tree

Opens the tree structure of the product to let you select any part at a specific level of the product.

The part that you first select is always on the lowest level of the displayed product structure.

From the lowest level part, you can move up in the hierarchy of the product structure to select the part you want.

For more information, see Select a Part of a Product in the Viewport.
Product or Part Changes:
Delete Override
Removes the selected Change from the product or part. The Change entry disappears from the Content panel. This option is only available in the content panel and therefore only on desktop devices.

Materials

For materials themselves, there is no context toolbar. For material Changes, the following option is available.

Material Changes:
Remove Material Change
Removes the modifications done for the tweaked material type. The selected material change is no longer listed in the content panel. This option is only available in the content panel and therefore only on desktop devices.

Ambiences

Note: The following options are only available in the content panel and therefore only on desktop devices.
Load Ambience
Applies the ambience to the selected Scene.
You can also drag the ambience from the content panel to the viewport to apply it to the current Scene.
Delete Ambience from Experience
Deletes the ambience from the Experience.
Note: Be careful not to confuse this option with Remove ambience.
To use deleted ambiences in the Experience again, you need to reload them from 3DSpace.
Remove ambience
Removes the ambience from the selected Scene.
This option is only available for the Scene ambience. Removed ambiences still exist in the Experience and you can apply them to other scenes from the content panel.
