Part VI: Advanced Modeling
Using List Views
One of the last uses of the Schematic View is to list all nodes that have things in common. Using the List
Views menu, you can select to see All Relationships, Selected Relationships, All Instances, Selected
Instances, Show Occurrences, and All Animated Controllers.
The List Views ➪ All Relationships menu command displays a separate dialog box, shown in Figure 25.13,
containing a list of nodes and their relationships. The Selected Relationships menu command limits the list
to only selected objects with relationships. The List Views dialog box also includes a Detach button to
remove the relationships if desired. Double-clicking on a relationship in the list opens its dialog box, where
you can edit the relationship.
Tip
You can click each column head to sort the entries. n

The List Views dialog box includes a list of nodes with relationships.

The List Views ➪ All Instances menu command displays all the instances found in the scene. This includes
all types of instances, including geometry, modifiers, controllers, and so on. For the Instances list view, the
Detach button is replaced with a Make Unique button.
Note
Another way to identify instances is to look for bold text in the node. All label text for all instanced nodes is
displayed in bold. n
If a node is selected and you want to see all other nodes that share the same type of relationship or that
share a property, the List Views ➪ Show Occurrences displays them. The final list view shows All Animated
Controllers.
