Ability to create a child entity of another one

Open dmarcos opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Maybe by selecting an entity and clicking create child in a contextual menu

@dmarcos Any idea on how to make it? maybe using a modifier (let's say shift) while clicking the + icon will create inside the current selected entity? and if using the same modifier while pressing the shortcut to insert a new entity n will do the same.

How about a + icon along with the trash and clone button. And clicking on the button will add an a-entity as the child of the entity ?

I can work on this

Thanks for being proactive! I think this is more of an editor feature vs an inspector feature. If you are just poking around, you don't need much to create entities at all, let alone one of another entity.

We do have some experimental tools in the works more suited for those use cases, but maybe best to leave Inspector as a helper tool for now. I might consider closing this.
