Time	Narration
00:04	Welcome to the series of Blender Tutorials.
00:08	This tutorial is about the properties window in Blender 2.59.
00:15	This script has been contributed by Sneha Deorukhkar and Bhanu Prakash and edited by Monisha Banerjee.
00:28	After watching this tutorial, we shall learn- what is the Properties window;
00:35	what are the scene panel, world panel and Object panel under the Properties window;
00:42	what are the various settings in the scene panel, world panel and Object panel under the Properties window.
00:52	I assume that you know the basic elements of the Blender interface.
00:57	If not then please refer to our earlier tutorial - Basic Description of the Blender Interface.
01:05	The Properties window is located on the right hand side of our screen.
01:11	We have already seen the first panel of the 'Properties window' and the settings in the previous tutorial.
01:17	Let's see the next panels in the Properties window.
01:21	First, we must resize our Properties window for better viewing and understanding.
01:27	Left-click the left edge of the Properties window, hold and drag to the left.
01:37	We can see the options in the Properties window more clearly now.
01:42	To learn how to resize the Blender windows, see our tutorial - How to Change Window Types in Blender.
01:51	Left click the second icon at the top row of the Properties window. This is the Scene panel.
02:02	Camera is the active camera used for rendering the scene.
02:08	Units determines the scale of the objects in the scene.
02:14	This is very useful and important for animating in Blender.
02:20	By default, Units is set to None and Degrees.
02:26	Left click Metric . Now all objects in our scene will be measured in metres.
02:35	Take a look at Gravity.
02:38	Notice that the X-Y-Z units of gravity have changed to metres per second square
02:46	Gravity comes in use when we animate objects using Physics in Blender.
02:52	We shall see that in later tutorials.
02:56	Left click the third icon at the top row of the Properties window.
03:03	This is the World panel. Here, we can change the world settings or background settings of Blender.
03:12	Left click Blend Sky. The Preview changes to gradient colour.
03:21	But the 3D view looks the same. So, how do we know that the background has actually changed?
03:30	Press F12 to render the active camera view.
03:36	Now, we can see the change in the background.
03:40	Close the Render Display.
03:46	Left click Zenith colour. Choose a colour from the menu. I am selecting white.
03:58	Now, the background will be rendered with a black and white gradient.
04:03	Other settings in the World panel are - Ambient Occlusion, Environment Lighting, Indirect Lighting, Gather, Mist, Stars.
04:21	These settings will be covered in more advanced tutorials about lighting in Blender.
04:29	Left-click the fourth icon at the top row of the 'Properties window'.
04:37	This is the Object Panel. Here are the settings for the active object.
04:45	By default, the Cube is the active object. So, all the settings here are for the cube.
04:54	Transform determines the location, rotation and scale of the active object.
05:04	Left click X 0 under Location. Type 1 on your keyboard and press Enter.
05:14	The cube moves forward by 1 unit on the X-axis.
05:20	So, this is how we can use the Object panel to move, rotate and scale the active object.
05:28	This is very useful while animating key-frames in Blender.
05:35	Right click Camera in the 3D-view.
05:40	Notice how the units for Location, Rotation and Scale under Transform in the 'Object Panel' have changed.
05:50	These are the settings for the selected camera.
05:55	Next setting is Relations. Here, we can specify the Layer and Parent for an active object.
06:07	Left click the second square under Layers. The camera is now hidden.
06:13	In fact, it has been moved to the second layer. Since the layer is hidden, the camera gets hidden too.
06:23	Go to View at the bottom left corner of the 3D-view. Left-click to open the menu.
06:32	Select Show All Layers. The camera can be seen again in the 3D-view.
06:42	Layers is very useful when working with multiple objects in one scene.
06:50	Left click Parent under Relations in the 'Object Panel'.
06:55	Parent is the most important animation tool used in all 3D- animation softwares.
07:03	We will use this a lot in the Blender Animation tutorials.
07:10	Select Cube.
07:13	The Camera has been parented to the cube.
07:16	The cube is the parent object and the camera is the child object. Let's see what this means.
07:24	Right-click to select the cube in the 3D-view.
07:28	Left click the blue handle, hold and move your mouse up and down.
07:36	The camera moves up and down along with the cube.
07:44	Left click on screen to confirm a new location for the cube.
07:51	Right click Camera in the 3D-view. Now, go back to Parent in the Object Panel.
08:02	Left click Parent. Press Backspace on your keyboard and hit the Enter key.
08:11	The camera is no longer parented to the cube.
08:15	It snaps back to its original position in the 3D-view while the cube remains in the new position.
08:22	This means that parenting does not change the original transform settings of the child object.
08:29	So, in this tutorial we have covered Scene panel, World panel and Object panel under the Properties window.
08:39	The rest of the panels shall be covered in the next tutorial.
08:45	Now, go ahead and create a new Blend file. Change Scene units to Metric.
08:52	Change World colour to Blend Sky, Red and black.
08:58	This Tutorial is created by Project Oscar and supported by the National Mission on Education through ICT.
09:08	More information on the same is available at the following links: oscar.iitb.ac.in and spoken-tutorial.org/NMEICT-Intro.
09:28	The Spoken Tutorial project:
09:30	Conducts workshops using spoken tutorials.
09:33	Also gives certificates to those who pass an online test.
