Import

To import a 3D model:

  1. Drag and drop a model into your project or go to main menu → File → Import → 3D Model.

  2. If you imported via the main menu you will see a file browser appear. Select the model you wish to import and click the Open button on the menu.

  3. Click anywhere in your project to place the model.

  4. You may need to adjust the values in the Translate section of the right sidebar to fine tune the positioning of the imported model.

Scaling a model after import

To scale a model after you’ve imported it:

  1. Select the model you wish to scale.

  2. Enter the desired scale in the Scale input in the right sidebar. Alternatively you can hover on the right side of the Scale input and scrub the value by clicking and dragging left or right.
