Change How Entities Look

You can edit an entity's size, color, position and rotation using your mouse or trackpad. To edit an entity, open the Create app and either select the entity or find it in the Entity List.

참고

You can select and edit multiple entities at once. The behavior will be different based on the type of property you'd like to set:

  • Numbers: When using the slider, an offset will be applied to each of the original values. When typed in, the new value will replace the original values for the selected entities.

  • All other field types (checkboxes, input fields, etc): The new value will replace the original values for the selected entities.
