You can use the Schematic View Display floater to control what entities and
relationships you want to see and work with. Use Schematic View to navigate
complex hierarchies or scenes with large numbers of objects. Use Schematic
View to understand and explore the structure of files you didn't create yourself.
One powerful feature is the list view. You can see the nodes in a text list which
you can sort by criteria. The list views can be used to navigate extremely
complex scenes quickly. You can use the relationship or instance viewer within
Schematic View to see light inclusions or parameter wirings within the scene.
You can control the display of instances or see a list of object occurrences.
Schematic View also allows for background image or grid, and automatic
arrangement of nodes based on physical scene placement. This makes arranging
nodes for character rigs easier.
Choose between a variety of arrangement selections so you can auto-arrange,
or work in a free mode. The layout of the nodes is saved with the named
Schematic View window. You can load a background image as a template for
laying out the nodes in the window.
