The "Object" panel and the Control Panel in the Director allow you to access and edit actors, components and their properties inside the Pixotope Engine/Editor, in both LIVE and Edit mode.

To easily access the specific properties you want to control, you can explicitly expose properties to the Director.

Learn more about the Object panel and the Control panel.

Since Pixotope 1.4 custom variables on blueprint actors need to be explicitly exposed. They are not longer exposed by default.

Exposing properties in the Editor

  1. Select the object whose properties you want to be exposed to the Director
  2. Click the star icon to the left of almost any property
    • The star will turn yellow
    • Some properties have a grey star, which means that they are already exposed
  3. In the "Object" panel, the exposed properties will be available in the List of Properties
