  • The Preview Inspection is a new feature that helps you create dynamic Lenses - press the new "Inspect Scene" button next to the Pause button in the Preview panel to see the actual state of the Lens running in Preview. With Preview Inspection, you can:

    • View objects and components created via scripting.

    • Inspect the actual state of the Lens. For example, SceneObjects, Transforms, values of the parameters in Components.

    • View a snapshot of the Lens in the 3D Scene Editor.
