Everything you need to know about using a scene and saving your own scenes

When you create a new world in Topia it will come with one of our scenes or templates pre-populated. The scene can be changed at any time - you can choose from a collection of our scenes or start from a blank slate. Each scene can be further customized to fit your needs.

 


 

Change the Scene

The World Owner as well as Designer, Producer and Manager admins can change the scene in a world. If you are not able to change the scene, please contact the world owner or a manager of the world to grant you access. 

  1. Go to your world
  2. Click the Scenes scenes icon in the left sidebar
  3. From the dropdown filter, select Topia Scenes
    • If you have a dedicated deployment (your world does not reside on topia.io), look for 'Company or Ecosystem name' Scenes.
  4. Select a scene and click the Drop drop icon to place it in your world or the Replace replace icon to replace everything in the world with the scene selected
    • 💡 Tip: Save a version of your world before replacing the scene. Once the scene is replaced, you won't be able to go back to a previous version unless you have it saved in your scene library. 

 


 

Create a New Scene

Easily save your world as a scene so that you can use it again in the future. Only the World Owner or Manager admins can create a scene. Follow these simple steps to save your own scene:

  1. Inside your world, click the Scenes scenes icon in the left sidebar
  2. Click the Create Scene plus button
  3. On the Create Scene page, add a name and description
    • To share the entire scene with anyone on Topia.io, click the toggle next to Submit to Marketplace? (learn more here). I
    • If you have a dedicated deployment this feature is not available. 
  4. Click Save Scene

Your scene will now appear in the My Scenes menu and can be used any world in which you are the owner or a manager.

When can I use a scene?

A scene can be dragged and placed anywhere in a world that you own or where you are a manager. 

Drop Scene vs. Replace Scene
