Time	Narration
00:05	Welcome to the series of Blender tutorials.
00:09	This tutorial is about the Properties window in Blender 2.59.
00:16	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 Object constraints panel, Modifiers Panel and Object Data Panel in the 'Properties window';
00:44	what are the various settings in the Object constraints panel, Modifiers Panel and Object Data Panel in the 'Properties window'.
00:57	I assume that you know the basic elements of the Blender interface.
01:01	If not then please refer to our earlier tutorial - Basic Description of the Blender Interface.
01:10	The Properties window is located on the right hand side of our screen.
01:16	We have already seen the first four panels of the Properties window and their settings in the previous tutorials.
01:23	Let's see the next panels in the Properties window. First, we must resize our Properties window for better viewing and understanding.
01:33	Left click the left edge of the Properties window, hold and drag to the left.
01:43	We can see the options in the Properties window more clearly now.
01:47	To learn how to resize the Blender windows see our tutorial - How to Change Window Types in Blender.
01:57	Go to the top row of the Properties window.
02:03	Left click the chain icon. This is the Object Constraints Panel.
02:12	Left click Add constraint. This menu lists various object constraints.
02:19	Here are three main types of constraints – Transform, Tracking and Relationship.
02:31	Copy Location constraint is used to copy one object’s location and set it to the other object.
02:38	Go to the 3D view. Right click the Lamp to select it.
02:45	Go back to the Object Constraints Panel.
02:49	Left Click Add Constraint.
02:52	Select Copy Location under Transform.
02:57	A new panel appears under the Add constraint menu bar.
03:05	This panel contains settings for the Copy Location constraint.
03:06	Do you see this white bar with the orange cube on the left in the copy location panel?
03:12	This is the Target bar. Here we add the name of our target object.
03:21	Left click the Target bar.
03:24	Select Cube from the list.
03:29	The copy location constraint copies the location coordinates of the cube and applies it to the lamp.
03:37	As a result, the lamp moves to the location of the cube.
03:42	Left click the cross icon at the top right corner of the Copy location panel .
03:50	The constraint is removed. The lamp moves back to its original location.
03:58	So, this is how an object constraint works.
04:02	We will be using object constraints many times in later tutorials.
04:07	For now, let's move on to the next panel in the 'Properties window'. Go to the 3D view.
04:16	Right click the cube to select it.
04:19	Left click the next icon at the top row of the 'Properties window'.
04:26	This is the Modifiers panel .
04:29	A Modifier deforms the object without changing its original properties. Let me demonstrate.
04:36	Go back to the Modifiers Panel.
04:40	Left click ADD modifier. Here are three main types of modifiers - Generate, Deform and Simulate.
04:54	Left click Subdivision Surface at the bottom left corner of the menu.
05:02	The cube deforms into a distorted ball. A new panel has appeared under the Add modifier menu bar.
05:10	This panel shows settings for the Subdivision Surface modifier.
05:16	Left click View 1. Type 3 on your keyboard and hit the Enter key.
05:25	Now the cube looks like a ball or sphere.
05:28	We will learn about subdivision surface Modifiers in detail in later tutorials.
05:35	Left click the cross icon at the top right corner of the Subdivision surface panel.
05:43	The modifier is removed. The cube changes back to its original form.
05:49	So, the modifier did not change the original properties of the cube.
05:54	We shall learn about other Modifiers in detail in later tutorials.
05:59	Left click the inverted triangle icon at the top row of the 'Properties window'.
06:07	This is the Object Datapanel.
06:10	Vertex groups are used to group a set of selected vertices.
06:15	We shall see how to use Vertex Groups in more advanced tutorials about animation in Blender.
06:22	Shape Keys are used to animate the object in edit mode.
06:28	Do you see the plus sign at the far right of the shape keys box?
06:34	This is used to add a new shape key to the object .
06:39	Left click the plus sign at the far right of the shape keys box. The first key is Basis.
06:50	This key saves the original form of the object that we are going to animate.
06:55	Hence, we cannot modify this key.
06:58	Left click the plus sign again to add another key. Key 1 is the first key that can be modified.
07:10	Go to the 3D view .
07:13	Press tab on your keyboard to enter the Edit mode.
07:18	Press S to scale the cube. Drag your mouse. Left click to confirm scale.
07:29	Press tab to go back to the Object mode.
07:33	The cube is back to its original size. So, what happened to the scaling we did in the edit mode?
07:40	Go back to the Shape Keys box in the Object Data panel.
07:45	Key 1 is the active key and highlighted in blue.
07:50	On the right side is the value of the shape key. This value can be modified below.
07:57	Left click Value 0.000.
08:03	Type 1 on your key board and hit the Enter key. The cube is now scaled.
08:12	We can keep adding more shape keys and modifying the cube as we go.
08:17	You will find me using the shape keys very often while animating in this series of Blender tutorials.
08:26	Next setting is UV Texture. This is used to modify the texture added to an object.
08:33	We will see this in detail in later tutorials.
08:38	Now you can go ahead and create a new file;
08:42	using Copy Location constraint, copy the location of the cube to the lamp;
08:49	using the Subdivision Surface modifier, change the cube into a sphere and animate the cube using shape keys.
09:00	This tutorial is created by Project Oscar and supported by the National Mission on Education through ICT.
09:09	More information on the same is available at the following links: oscar.iitb.ac.in and spoken-tutorial.org/NMEICT-Intro.
09:30	The Spoken Tutorial project:
09:32	Conducts workshops using spoken tutorials;
09:35	also gives certificates to those who pass an online test.
09:40	For more details, please contact us to contact@spoken-tutorial.org
09:47	Thank you for joining us
09:49	and this is Monisha from IIT Bombay, signing off.
