How do I import 3D models and files in Hololight Space?

When importing files into Hololight Space, we recommend organizing them in dedicated folders. If you’re working locally, use the 3D Objects folder. In the cloud, use the left sidebar—each file type (3D models, stencils, skyboxes, etc.) has its own dedicated tab.

This video provides a detailed walkthrough of the file preparation and loading process for Hololight Space, applicable to both the on-premises and cloud versions. It also highlights the convenient drag-and-drop feature, which lets you easily transfer files directly into your Space.

Open the file browser (Load Object) from the Welcome screen, the Quick Menu, or through the Space Manager.
