== Using “'''EMPTY'''” Empty Objects ==While arguably the simplest geometric object in Blender, the “'''EMPTYempty'''” can be one of the most useful. Blender Tools makes use of the “'''EMPTYempty'''” type for [[Documentation/Tools/SCS Blender Tools/Root objects|root objects]] and [[Documentation/Tools/SCS Blender Tools/Locators|locators]]. When not configured as either or these special types, Blender Tools will not treat an '''empty''' specially upon export. To clarify, SCS objects which are children of an '''empty''' will still be treated as SCS objects; and, any objects which are children of an '''empty''' that is, in turn, a child of an SCS object will still be treated as belonging to the SCS object. The '''empty''' type can therefore be used to organize SCS objects within a scene, and any other objects within an SCS object, much like folders are used to organize documents. === Setting a Parent ===Selected objects can be parented to the active object using the {{key press|Ctrl|P}} shortcut. A context menu gives the option of keeping the current transformation or not. The ''keep current transformation'' option maintains the selected objects' absolute position, scale, and orientation in the scene, and is generally the preferred option in this case. === Clearing a Parent ===
