The Node properties panel allows you to view and modify the properties of objects selected in your scene.

Note:

Currently, the Node properties panel only allows you to modify settings when a camera is selected. Additional controls are planned for future updates.

Camera properties

When a camera is selected, the Node properties panel helps you change the camera's settings.

With a camera selected, use the Node properties panel to:

  • Toggle between perspective and orthographic view.
  • Adjust the camera's field of view.
  • Toggle depth of field, and set the blur amount for out of focus parts of your scene.
  • Set a focus target for depth of field.
  • Modify the aspect ratio, or switch between portrait and landscape.

Making changes to a selected camera won't affect the viewport camera.

Currently, it's only possible to modify camera properties when a single camera is selected. It is not possible to modify multiple cameras at the same time.
