Every time the Graph Editors ➪ New Schematic View menu command is used, a new view name is created
and another view is added to the Saved Schematic Views submenu. The Schematic View ➪ Delete Schematic
View command opens a dialog box in which you can select the view you want to delete.
Tip
You can open any saved Schematic View window (or a new Schematic View window) within a viewport by right-
clicking the viewport title, choosing Views ➪ Schematic, and clicking the view name in the pop-up menu. n
FIGURE 25.1
The Schematic View window displays all objects as nodes.
The Schematic View interface
The Schematic View window includes several common interface elements including menus, toolbar but-
tons, and a right-click quadmenu. Just like the main interface, you can access the commands in many ways.
Using the Schematic View menus
The Schematic View window includes menus at the top of its interface, including Edit, Select, List Views,
Layout, Options, Display, and View.
The Edit menu includes commands to Connect (C) and Unlink Selected object nodes. It also includes a
Delete command, which deletes an object from the viewports as well as from the object node. The Edit
menu includes commands to Assign Controllers, Wire Parameters, and a command to open the Object
Properties dialog box.
Note
Many of the keyboard shortcuts for the Schematic View window are the same as those in the main interface. If
you enable the Keyboard Shortcut Override Toggle, then you can use the Schematic View keyboard shortcuts. n
The Select menu includes commands for accessing the Select tool (S or Q); selecting All (Ctrl+A), None
(Ctrl+D), and Invert (Ctrl+I); selecting (Ctrl+C) and deselecting children; and commands to sync the
selected nodes in the Schematic View with the scene (Select From Scene) and vice versa (Select to Scene).
