The Info tab
The Info tab describes the open file rather than any selection inside it.
Summary
The first section reports the file's identity and size.
Format, source file name, node count, mesh count, primitive count, vertex and index counts, point count where present, and a Compression row naming the schemes the file declares.
Orientation
STL and PLY files get an Orientation section with a single Auto Orient button, which examines the surface and rotates it upright. The rotation is applied to the geometry when the file is saved.
Model
A Model section appears when the file offers something to choose between. Depending on the format it holds:
- Variant, for a glTF file that declares
KHR_materials_variants. - The stage's top-level variant sets, for USD. Variant sets authored deeper in the stage are reached from the prim's own Node tab, and the section states how many it is not showing.
- Scene, when the file declares more than one scene.
Camera
When the file declares cameras, an Active picker chooses which one the viewport looks through. Default Camera uses the viewer's own orbit camera.
Display Purposes and Refinement
USD stages get two more sections. Display Purposes toggles the proxy, render, and guide purposes independently, and Refinement sets the subdivision complexity for this stage. See Viewing a stage and Subdivision.
Health
glTF and GLB files get a Health section containing the Khronos glTF validator's report, which runs automatically when the model loads. See Validating glTF. This section is present in the direct download only.
Extensions
Files that declare extensions list them here, separated into Required and Optional. An extension Solidly does not support is marked with a warning symbol, and extensions with a compatibility caveat carry an information symbol explaining it.
About
The last section holds the file's authoring metadata in two disclosures.
Metadata shows what the format records about the asset itself: the glTF asset block and extras, the FBX document properties, the authored comments in an OBJ, a PLY's encoding and comments, and a USD stage's own metadata.
XMP Metadata appears for glTF and GLB, and shows the KHR_xmp_json_ld packet attached to the asset.
Where the format supports editing, each disclosure header carries an edit button. See Editing metadata.
