Scene objects and targets

A ModelTarget gives a visual action a stable authored address, including an optional node path or material slot. The current Editor can consume targets already present on bindings, but it does not create targets.

Current UI boundary

The Editor's Scene/Objects panel is not yet a verified data-driven glTF hierarchy authoring tool. Its root label comes from the loaded product/model, while the displayed chair subtree and local visibility toggles are presentation scaffolding. The Import model and Browse library controls also do not complete an upload or selection workflow.

Do not use that panel as proof that a node path or target has been persisted.

Create a target today

Use Backoffice 3D Studio on a draft:

1. Select a mesh path in the model viewer.
2. Enter a stable semantic target key.
3. Choose VISIBILITY or MATERIAL.
4. Create or queue the target, then save queued changes.

The API exposes createModelTarget for the same persisted operation. The current Backoffice UI sends productModelId, key, targetType, nodePath, and an optional materialSlot.

Verify

1. Save the target in Backoffice and reload the draft.
2. Confirm the target appears with the expected key, type, and node path.
3. Create or inspect a visual binding that references the target.
4. Open Editor and confirm the hydrated binding reports the intended target key.
5. Preview the bound value and confirm the real scene object changes.
