🌴 Using the Asset Library

Whether you are looking for an open mic for a comedy night, a desk or water cooler for your virtual office, or holiday decor, we've got you covered! To add assets to your world:

Click the Assets icon in the bottom half of the toolbar to open the Assets drawer
Browse the whole library, filter by category, or search through the library until you find the item you wish to place
Click on the asset thumbnail to select it
On the canvas, click where you would like to place the asset.

Using the asset library

Clicking the “Table View” button will open a table with additional columns of information on each asset. Similarly to the drawer, you can use the filters at the top of the page to switch between lists (My Assets, Topia Assets, and Placed Assets) and filter results.

🔤 Add a Custom Text Asset

You can easily create text assets directly by dropping the special custom text asset in your world.

Click the Assets icon in the bottom half of the toolbar to open the Assets drawer
From the dropdown filter, select All.
Search for Text Asset and click the 「T」 icon to select it.
On the canvas, click where you would like to place the text asset.
Once placed and while in builder mode, click on the text asset
The Select drawer will open on the right. Here, you can enter the text you want to display and style it to your preference.

Editing a text asset

Modify Text Asset to be in the Foreground

Once placed and while in builder mode, click on the text asset
The Select drawer will open on the right. Click on the Configuration tab, then select Layers.
Under Layers, go to Display Layer and set the text asset to Top Layer.
In the Modify Top Layer section, click Forwards multiple times until the text appears in front of the foreground asset.
This adds a region of transparent pixels at the base of the text asset, allowing it to appear in front of the foreground asset; you can also add an exact number of pixels in the text field
