Configuring Kanzi Studio projects

To configure a Kanzi Studio project:

1. Open the project and in the main menu select Project > Properties.
   
2. In the Properties set the properties in these property categories to configure your project:
   • Description to document the project. See Documenting a project.
   • Application Settings to set:
     • The directories to which Kanzi Studio exports the kzb file and kzb Player version of the project. See Using kzb files.
     • How Kanzi Studio handles unused resources. See Setting how Kanzi Engine handles unused resources.
   • Binary Export to configure the contents of the kzb file.
     For example, use these properties to optimize the export of meshes and images.
   • Building to set the application configuration that Kanzi Studio uses to build the project. See Configuring Android builds.
   • Default Assets to set which assets you want to use when you create nodes and resources. See Setting the default assets.
   • Kanzi Connect to enable the Kanzi Connect tools in the project.
   • Preview to configure the Preview to work with Kanzi Engine plugins. See Creating Kanzi Engine plugins.
   • Profile to set the name of the kzb file and project descriptions file, and the graphics API. See Using kzb files, Documenting a project, and Using OpenGL ES 3.0 in Kanzi.
   • Required Renderer Features to set which features you want the renderer to support.
     For example, you can request support for half-float texture format and color attachment.
   • Timeline to set the start and end times of the global timeline of the project.
     To view the timeline, select Window > Toolbar > Timeline.
   

Setting the default assets

You can set which assets you want to use when you create new nodes and resources.

To set the default assets:

1. Open the project and in the main menu select Project > Properties.
   
2. In the Properties in the Default Assets category set which assets you want to use by default:
   • Default Material sets the material that Kanzi Studio sets to models you create and import that do not have a material.
   • Default Texture sets the single texture that Kanzi Studio sets to all new Image nodes and materials that use textures.
   • Default Cube Map Texture sets the cubemap texture that Kanzi Studio sets to all new materials that use cubemap textures.
   • Import Material Type sets the material type to which Kanzi Studio assigns the materials that you import with 3D asset files.
