Dragging and dropping assets and files

 
 
 

You can drag .fbx files and assets into the Viewer window to open them.

To drag and drop assets or files:

  1. Drag an .fbx file into the Viewer window from the Asset browser.

    The FBX Open context menu appears where you dropped the file.

  2. Expand this menu to see the open options.

    FBX Open options

    If there is anything already in the scene, there is a second option: FBX Merge.

  3. Select from the following options:
    Option Description
    All Takes

    Replaces the current scene with the assets, settings, and takes from the .fbx file. All assets and models are loaded with their animation. If something is already in your scene, a save dialog box appears for you to save it before the new scene is opened.

    No Animation

    Replaces the current scene with the assets and settings from the .fbx file. All keyframe animation on assets and models are not loaded. Takes are also not loaded.

    Take 001

    This part of the context menu lists the takes in the .fbx file. Selecting the take name replaces the current scene with the keyframe animation on assets and models associated with the selected take.

    Options

    Opens the Open Options dialog box, letting you select the assets, settings, and takes to load. For more information on the Open Options dialog box, see Loading assets from .fbx files.

    If you select Options, the Open Options dialog box appears to let you select assets, settings, and takes to load from the new scene.
