Creating Scenes

Each time you start Softimage or create a new project, a new scene is automatically generated. However, you can also create a new scene at any time while you are working. You cannot have more than one scene open at a time, and you are prompted to save the current scene before you can create a new one.

To create a new scene in the current project

Choose File New Scene from the main menu or press Ctrl+N.

If you have modified the scene that is currently open, you are prompted to save the changes.

The new scene is created within the current project and its name appears as "Untitled" on the title bar.

To clear your workspace and create a new scene

Choose Edit Delete All from the main menu or from the Edit panel in the main command area (or just press Ctrl+Delete).

This clears your workspace by resetting all viewports to their default settings and creates a new untitled scene in the current project.

To create a new scene in a different project

Choose File Project Manager from the main menu.
Select a project in the Select a Project list box where you want to create the new scene.
In the Select a Scene list box, make sure New Scene is selected and click the New Scene button.

The new scene is created in the selected project and its name appears as "Untitled" on the title bar.
