By default - when you create a new project - this will be populated with numerous folder groups labelled with the different kinds of assets that can be added, but these can be renamed or even removed and you don't have to store assets of the same kind in each group. This section of the asset browser lists all the different assets that you are using in your game.

You can find more information on each of the options listed from the section on the Game Options. These control various different aspects of the project related to setting up and compiling for the different target platforms (what Game Options are available will depend on what licence type you have).

Game Options: Here you can quickly access the various different Game Options for your project.

For more information on tags, see further down in this page. Any applied tags are shown at the bottom of the asset browser in the Information section. These will then be listed here and you can use them to filter the assets shown in the asset list and you can double-click any tag (or use the right mouse button option Filter By Tag) to apply that tag to the asset list filter.

Tags: All assets in the Asset Browser can be assigned user-defined Tags.

You can also Delete and Rename saved filters from the RMB menu. To use the filter, simply double click on it or use the right mouse button menu option Apply Filter. The filter will be saved to this list and you can rename it if required.

To do that, set up the filter as explained further up this page, and then click the right mouse button on this option and select Save Filter. Saved Filters: When using the filtering options, you may want to save the selection you've made for future reference.For more information on room order and child rooms please see the page on the Room Manager. If you click the "home" icon, then you will open the Room Manager and if you use the right mouse button on a room you can create a child room. To quickly change room order, simply click and drag the room up or down the list and then release the mouse button to place it at the new position.

All projects require at least one room to run and the room at the top of the list is the "home" room and will be the first room entered when the game initially starts (it is flagged with a "home" icon ).

Room Order: From here you can change the order that your rooms will run in.

Note that you can use the right mouse button again to unfavourite any asset, and if you use the button on the main Favourites folder, you can select Clear All to remove everything. To flag an asset as a favourite use the right mouse button on it and select Favourite from the pop-up menu.

Favourites: Once you have added some assets to the asset list, you may have some that you access frequently at any given time and so to make things easier you can flag these assets as "favourites", which will add them to this list and let you quickly find them.

By default a maximum of 10 assets will be listed here, but you can change this from the Asset Browser Preferences.

Recent: Here you can find a list of the most recently used assets.

This section of the asset browser is used to give you various methods to quickly access important or frequently used assets, and is split into the following sections: Note that if you have selected any filter other than "Any Type" then the filter button will change colour to give a visual indication that filtering is active. You can also filter using any tags that you have assigned (tags are discussed further down in this section of the manual). Selecting "Any Type" will reset the filter.

You can also select one or more asset type to filter and only the assets that are in the project of those types will be shown in the asset list. If you select the Custom Order filter, then you can select one or more assets and drag them up or down the asset browser tree and position them as you require (note that the "Groups First" option will be disabled). You can order them from A - Z or from Z - A as well as choose to order the groups first and then the assets within the groups, or order everything altogether.
