Creating and Using Scenes

Scenes let you curate key locations in your 3D model, making it easy to tell a visual story, present design decisions, and gather feedback.

Whether you’re preparing for a client presentation or internal review, Scenes help you guide others through your work with clarity and control.

1. Adding New Scenes

To capture an important viewpoint:

  • Move the camera to a key location in the model.

  • Click “Add Scene” in the left-hand panel.

  • Fill in:

    • A clear title (e.g. Reception – Daylight View)

    • A short description outlining what’s important at that spot (e.g. Natural light testing for furniture layout)

    • Optionally, upload a slideshow of images, or add links to external design docs or client feedback portals.

  • Click Save.

Why it matters

  • Scenes help you lock in and share consistent views — no need to manually reposition the camera each time.

  • They’re also a great way to bring specific details to your audience’s attention by guiding them through key moments or focal points in the experience.

2. Refining Existing Scenes

Need to adjust a scene after client feedback or design updates?

  • Click the dropdown next to the Scene name in the panel.

  • You can:

    • Reframe the camera (e.g. new angle or updated model state)

    • Change the time of day for lighting comparisons

    • Update the title or description

    • Add or remove reference images or diagrams

  • Make sure to click Save after making those changes.

This keeps your presentations aligned with the latest design thinking.

3. Navigating with Scenes

The Scene list in the left-hand panel acts as your presentation playlist:

  • Click a Scene to instantly jump to that location in the model.

  • Use this to lead client walkthroughs or internal critiques without manually navigating the space.

For a more focused view:

  • Collapse the panel using the toggle button in the top-left corner.

Pro Tips

  • Storyboard your walkthrough: Order Scenes to match the flow of your narrative.

  • Create alternate versions: Use multiple Scenes to compare options (e.g. Kitchen – Layout A, Layout B).

  • U images for context: Add references like material samples or previous design iterations to help stakeholders understand decisions.

  • Keep it collaborative: Encourage team members to add Scenes when noting issues or highlighting changes.
