It is often not enough to place static items on the board, usually controls need to switch in context with a selection.
A Selector automatically sets all items within it to refer to the selected item.
In the above image, the layer geometry has been placed inside a Layer selector. Click on layer two would automatically show layer two’s geometry.
There are different types of selectors.
Adding a Selector to the Pinboard
- Unlock the pin board by clicking the lock
- Then expand Hippo net by clicking the Hippo Net Icon
The selectors are part of the the list of special Pin Items:
Layer Selector
Mix Selector
Viewport Selector
Host Selector
The default mix view has a good example of this.
The mixes page is actually a Mix selector with a layer selector nested inside.
Editing selectors.
From version 4.3, the concept of a selected UI item when editing has been introduced.
With the pinboard unlocked, clicking on a UI item will select it for editing.
Choosing to edit a selector requires specific areas to be clicked.
