Positioning Widget

Adjust date, time, and location without leaving the viewport. The widget is split into two panels so you can keep Date & Time visible while collapsing the map.

Where to Find It

• Open the Scene Builder tool.
• Enable the Positioning Widget toggle in the viewport toolbar.

Date & Time Panel

• Calendar for year, month, and day (use the arrows to step).
• Time control: click to activate, then drag left/right to scrub time.
• Clock icon opens a compact time picker for hours/minutes.
• Sunrise / Sunset buttons set time quickly; you can drag after clicking to offset.
• Global / Local toggle switches between scene-wide positioning and per-body overrides.

Info

Not all locations have sunrises and sunsets for every date. When unavailable, the buttons will be grayed out and a tooltip will explain why.

Location & Positioning Panel

• Open Web Picker opens the interactive map picker.
• Map click sets latitude/longitude.
• Expand toggles a larger map view for more precise placement.
• Pan: hold Ctrl and drag when expanded.
• Zoom: Ctrl + Scroll while over the map (expanded view).

Note

For full positioning controls and data entry, see Global Position.
