Select an entity, move it using the mouse and click to place it. To place multiple copies of an entity, hold down [CTRL] while placing.

Use the [[Gizmos | Gizmos]] on the toolbar to move, rotate and scale the Object.

== Object Window ==

The Object window will open when an Object is added or selected. When an Object is placed, it will have two tabs:

[[Object General Tab | General ]] - sets general object properties such as position

[[Actions Tab | Actions ]] - sets up actions such as upgrades to be set up when selected events occur

All other properties (Model/Sprite, Collisions, Physics, Effects and Tags) will be as set in the [[Entity Editor|Entity Editor]] for the entity. Changing a property in the Entity Editor will change it for all instances of that entity, for example if the explosion effect when a ship is destroyed is changed in the Entity Editor, the new explosion will be used for all instances of that ship in a game. To jump to the model in the Entity Editor quickly, click the arrow by the Entity in the [[Object General Tab | General ]] Tab.

== Display List of Objects in Level ==

To get a list of all the Objects in the level, hold down CTRL when clicking the Object icon [[File:ToolsMenu12.png|link=]] on the [[Tools Menu | Tools]] menu.
