The Selection Inspector provides detailed information about the currently selected Scene Object or menu item. It displays properties, components, and settings in a contextual, user-friendly interface, allowing users to modify attributes, add or remove components, and configure behavior from a single place, with context of the currently selected object.

Each object in a scene can have multiple components attached to it, such as BIM links, tasks, properties or settings and the Inspector is the primary interface through which these components are edited and managed. By selecting an object in the scene or the project hierarchy, the Inspector dynamically updates to show relevant information, making it an indispensable tool for all users. It streamlines the process of adjusting parameters, testing sequences, and iterating on the design and methodology, making it central to the workflow within the Tobe Builder.

The inspector also includes the action menu, with context sensitive actions, that make it clear what actions can be completed, based on the context of the current selection. For example if a work zone was selected, that is already linked to a task, the action menu would include a action to remove that link, or if the same work zone is not yet associated with any tasks, the action would available would be to assign it to the current task.

When selecting the BIM at the parent (file) level, the inspector will show high level BIM properties, as well as give tools to control appearance such as opacity, and terrain cutting. The Tasks subsection will also display a list of all tasks that BIM model is associated with.

Parent level selection will also expose actions, such as geolocate for models that support this action.

When sub selecting specific elements within a BIM, it will expose more BIM properties, as well as specific actions that can be taken with a active subselection such as creating selection sets, or prefabs.

When a resource is selected, the selection inspector allows the user to interact with, and update all of the resource information.

This includes:

Actions: Such as remove and add the resource to the task or project.

Transform: A tool to move objects to a specific lat/long or grid location, provide location and rotation information, or copy and paste exact locations from one object to another.

Resource Animation: Tools to set the position, rotation and pose of a resource

Resource Deployment: Settings to attach resources to work zone, paths or other layout options.

Resource Data: Where resource names, production or cost data can be updated.

Tasks: A list of all tasks that resource is associated with.

The Inspector is also used to input, edit or view information regarding all objects within the scene. It can be used to edit and view detailed information for work zones, paths, measurements, automations or annotations in a similar way.

The top most section of the object inspector is the action menu. The actions are selection specific, so the available actions for that specific selected object, or group of objects are shown in the action section as a series of buttons depending on what you have selected.

The Transform section of the Selection Inspector appears for any world space object that has a position on the map in the Scene Window. This includes BIMs, Resources, Shapes, Image Targets and more. It provides editable fields which show the object's position and rotation. This enables you to move any object within the scene to a specific point, and rotation in either global or grid coordinates. Users can also copy and paste a location from one object to another.
