Hi,

I have a digital asset (HDA) that has three OBJ nodes A,B and C. The HDA itself has no meaningful transformation -it should be set to identity. Only Object C has a meaningful transformation.

I want to do the following: When a user selects the HDA node, he gets the transformation handlers of the inner Object node C, such that if he translates in X direction he actually translates Object C.

In the attached Image, Pyro_Import is Object C, and I want Pyro_Import transformation handles appear when the use select the digital asset. Currently when the user select the Digital Asset, no handles appear …

I am not sure how to do that, if anyone has some pointers I would really appreciate it

- open Type Properties for your asset
- dive into asset
- select objectC
- press enter in the viewport to show handle
- right click to the handle
- choose Export Handle To Digital Asset
- edit promoted parameters/handle assignments in type properties if needed
- accept

WOW I am impressed… Did I miss this info in the Documentation? Anyways, Thaaaanks a lot….
