====Detail: Placement====

This page allows you to change the details of an assets **location**, **appearance**, **environment** and **behaviour**.

===Location===

Note that if you don't yet have a location or appearance set for your asset, these buttons will be highlighted in //yellow//.

Pressing on 'Change Placement' allows you to pick a location for your asset. See [[setting asset locations|setting asset locations]] for more detail on this process.

===Appearance===

Pressing **Change Appearance** allows you to change the way the asset looks in [[ardibasics:ardi-ve|ARDI-VE]].

See [[setting asset appearance|setting asset appearance]] for more information on this section.

===3D Environment===

This allows you to tell ARDI that the asset is itself a 3D environment in which other assets can be found.

3D environments can be //nested// - for example, you can have an environment for a site with multiple buildings. Each building has it's own 3D environment, and each enclosure //within// that building also has its own unique 3D environment.

By clicking this button, you can either...

  * Create an empty environment - a simple open space,
  * [[Upload Floorplans|Upload floorplan images]] for your environment, or
  * Upload an environment package that has been created using the [[ARDI Environment Creator]].

===Bindings and Behaviours===

The remainder of this page is used to [[ardiadminguide:assign_properties_to_models|assign properties and assets to parts of your 3D model]].
