Dynamic Views

Some of the views in Grid will dynamically update what it is showing depend on the selected object.

This applies to the following views in Grid:

  • Inspector

  • Artboard

  • Workflow

  • Modifier

  • Timeline

These views would have a slightly different UI to them.

click here to move the view around

toggle the lock/unlock of the view so it stays on the current object or dynamically update based on the selected object

provide secondary menu options


How to move these view around

To select and move these view around, you would have to click and drag on the icon of the view


Secondary Options

Clicking on the arrow next to the name, you are shown the secondary options of the view where you can quickly switch to another board / timeline / workflow / modifier or have the option to add another object of the same type.

Workflow / Modifier

What is unique about the workflow view is that different objects can also have workflow / modifier associated with it, and by selecting a different object, the view can display that linked workflow / modifier.

Inspector

The secondary option for the inspector when clicking on the name of the view provides a slightly different options.

You can from here pop out a new inspector view that is locked to the current selected object

You also have a history view of the past selected objects giving you a faster way to jump between selected objects.
