| 00:01 | Welcome to the series of Blender tutorials. |
| 00:05 | This tutorial is about the File Browser and the Info Panel in Blender 2.59. |
| 00:15 | This script has been contributed by Bhanu Prakash and edited by Monisha Banerjee |
| 00:24 | After watching this tutorial, we shall learn what is File Browser and Info Panel and the different options available in both |
| 00:40 | I assume that you know the basic elements of the Blender interface.
|
| 00:45 | If not then please refer to our earlier tutorial - Basic Description of the Blender Interface.
|
| 00:55 | Go to the Editor Type menu at the bottom left corner of the 3D view. |
| 01:02 | Left click to open the menu. This contains a list of different types of windows available in Blender. |
| 01:14 | Left click File Browser. |
| 01:18 | This is File browser. |
| 01:21 | Here we can locate all our blend files saved on our system. |
| 01:29 | These four arrow buttons help us move around inside our directory. |
| 01:37 | Back arrow will take us to the previous folder. |
| 01:41 | For Keyboard shortcut, press back space |
| 01:48 | Forward arrow will take us to the next folder. |
| 01:52 | For Keyboard shortcut press shift & backspace. |
| 01:59 | ‘Up arrow’ button will take you to the parent directory. |
| 02:05 | For Keyboard shortcut, press P . |
| 02:10 | Refresh button will refresh the file list on your current directory. |
| 02:19 | Create new directory will create a new directory or folder inside your current directory. |
| 02:29 | These buttons will help you to arrange your files or folders sequentially. |
| 02:39 | Filter button will enable filtering of files inside your directory. |
| 02:46 | Only the active icons present next to the filter tab will be visible inside the directory. |
| 02:57 | So that was about the File browser window in Blender. |
| 03:03 | Go to editor type menu at the top left corner of the file browser. |
| 03:10 | Left click to open the menu. |
| 03:15 | Left click 3D view. |
| 03:19 | We are back to the default Blender workspace. |
| 03:24 | Now let’s have a look at the info panel. |
| 03:30 | The top-most panel in the Blender interface is the Info panel – the main menu panel. |
| 03:40 | Left click file . |
| 03:42 | Here we have – open a new or an existing file, save the file, user preferences window, and import and export options. |
| 03:58 | Left click open. |
| 04:02 | This will open a browser similar to the file browser. |
| 04:07 | You can open a blend file from here which you have already saved on your system. |
| 04:14 | Activating load UI before opening a file will help you to open the Blend file with the User Interface or UI that you have saved for the same. |
| 04:26 | Left click Back to Previous to exit the open file window |
| 04:35 | Add contains a repository of different objects that you can add to your scene. |
| 04:42 | Left click Add. |
| 04:46 | Here is the object repository. |
| 04:50 | We can add new objects to the 3D view using this menu. |
| 04:56 | For keyboard shortcut, Press Shift & A. |
| 05:04 | Now, let’s add a plane to the 3D view. |
| 05:09 | Left click anywhere on screen to move the 3D cursor. |
| 05:15 | I am choosing this location. |
| 05:20 | Press Shift & A to bring up the ADD menu. |
| 05:25 | Mesh. Left click plane. |
| 05:30 | A new plane is added to the 3D view at the 3D cursor position. |
| 05:37 | To understand about 3D cursor, please see the tutorial Navigation – 3D cursor. |
| 05:46 | Similarly, you can try adding some more objects to the 3D view. |
| 05:53 | Now let's go back to the Info panel |
| 05:56 | Left click Render to open the Render menu |
| 06:00 | Render contains Image or video render options like render image, render animation, show or hide render view, etc. |
| 06:14 | Render settings will be covered in detail in later tutorials. |
| 06:19 | Go to the square icon next to help in the Info Panel. |
| 06:26 | This is Choose Screen layout |
| 06:31 | This shows us the default Blender interface we are working on. |
| 06:37 | Left click Choose Screen Layout. |
| 06:41 | This list gives you different layout options . |
| 06:48 | Animation, Compositing, Game logic, Video editing. |
| 06:55 | You can choose any one depending on your requirements. |
| 07:04 | Left click anywhere on the Blender screen or Press Esc on your keyboard to exit Choose Screen Layout |
| 07:15 | Scene shows the current scene we are working on. |
| 07:22 | So this was about the info panel. |
| 07:25 | Now try to create a new directory on your system using the File browser in Blender. |
| 07:32 | Then, Change the screen layout from default to Animation. |
| 07:39 | And that completes this tutorial on File Browser and Info panel. |
| 07:47 | This Tutorial is created by Project Oscar and supported by the National Mission on Education through ICT. |
| 07:55 | More information on the same is available at the following links |
