Focus and Designer preview

Focus keeps the Parameter Graph and Designer synchronised so you can locate the graph card for a visible object and inspect the live geometry produced by graph changes.

Where to find it
Project Browser object context menu > Focus in Parameter Graph; graph preview controls
When to use it

Step by step

  1. Right-click the object, result or source in Project Browser and choose Focus in Parameter Graph.
  2. If the imported graph has not loaded yet, allow preparation to finish before the view centres the card.
  3. The target card is revealed and its layer expanded as needed.
  4. Use Auto Preview or manual preview to inspect geometry while editing values. Changing tab or selection can cancel a pending focus request.

Auto Preview

Auto Preview is useful during normal parameter edits. For complex graphs or expensive geometry, disable it temporarily and preview deliberately to reduce repeated rebuild work.

Keep in mind

  • If a graph edit produces unexpected geometry, Focus the target object and then inspect its incoming connection rather than scanning the whole graph.
