Add a Box

Your First 3D Object

Let's create your first 3D object!

Task

  1. Look at the toolbar at the top of the screen
  2. Find the Add section with shape icons
  3. Click the Box (cube) icon to add a cube to your scene

What You'll See

  • A cube will appear in the center of the viewport
  • It will be selected (shown with a blue highlight)
  • The cube appears in the Scene panel on the left

Success Criteria

✓ Add at least one object to the scene

Tip: The cube is created at position (0, 0.5, 0) so it sits on top of the grid!
