(Toolbar)

Displays one or more icons representing the project elements that can be added as parents or children of the selected node in the Project Explorer.

By default, the toolbar displays all project elements that can be added as a child of the selected node. To display the possible parent project elements, press the Shift key.

To add a child to the selected node, simply click one of the active icons in the icon bar. To add a parent to the selected node, simply Shift+click one of the active icons in the icon bar.

Different icons will become active depending on the type of object you currently have selected in your project hierarchy.

Master-Mixer Hierarchy

A hierarchical structure of busses at the top of your object hierarchy that allows you to define the routing of the various sound, music, and motion structures within your project.

After the different structures have been grouped into busses, you can modify the properties, such as volume and pitch, define behaviors, such as ducking, and apply effects to the entire group.

Double-click a bus to open the Bus Property Editor.

Actor-Mixer Hierarchy

A hierarchical structure of the assets within your project. The Actor-Mixer Hierarchy can be comprised of a series of Sound and Motion FX objects, containers, Actor-Mixers, and folders that organize the many assets in your project. Double-click an object to open it in the Property Editor.

Interactive Music Hierarchy

A hierarchical structure of the music assets within your project. The Interactive Music Hierarchy can be comprised of a series of tracks, segments, containers, and folders that both organize the many music assets in your project. Double-click an object to open it in the Property Editor.

For Actor-Mixer Hierarchy and Interactive Music Hierarchy objects:

Inclusion

Determines whether the element is included or excluded. When selected, the element is included. When unselected, the element is not included. By default, this applies across all platforms. Use the Link indicator (to the left of the check box) to determine or to set platform-specific customizations.

When this option is unselected, the property and behavior options in the Property Editor become unavailable.
