The Operation Selector organizes all the operations available in to a hierarchy. On the left hand side of the Operation Selector dialog, the operations tree view presents this hierarchy in the form of a tree. Here you can expand folders and browse for an appropriate operation to apply to your model.
Below the operations tree view, there is an Information area, which will often provide you with a brief explanation of the currently selected operation, as well as providing some appropriate clickable links through which you may find out more information about the operation at hand.
In the lower right-hand corner of the operation selector window there is an Operation
parameters area. In here, any parameters pertinent to the currently selected operation are shown and may be modified by using the slider or the text-entry box.
The upper portion of the right hand side of the operation selector window displays contextdependent information and controls that are related to the currently selected entry in the operations tree view. There are three possible things that might appear in this area:
• The Color Picker;
• The operations folder view;
• An operation preview.
The Color Picker
Color wheel
The color picker appears in the right-hand side of the operation selector window when an operation is selected in the operations tree view that requires a color in order to fully define it.
The most striking feature of the color picker is the color wheel. To select a color, you may click anywhere in the color wheel's ring to choose your desired hue. The triangle will change accordingly to show the full range of saturation and value levels for that hue.
