Scene Object

The Scene Object is an empty object that can be used as a container for other 3D objects. On its own, the Scene Object will not render in the effect.

The Scene Object is a useful organizational tool for grouping other 3D objects together. 3D objects parented under a Scene Object can be manipulated as one unit with position, rotation, and scale properties.

note

The 2D Scene Object is a similarly empty object used to house other 2D objects. Learn more about 2D Scene Objects.
