Users can click the current name, change it, and commit the change by pressing `Enter` or clicking away. ## New and Save As The `File` tab contains the scene creation and duplication actions. ### New `New` opens the `New Scene` modal. Confirming the form creates a new scene and opens it in a new browser tab.

*New Scene modal for creating a new scene in the active organization.* ### Save As `Save As` opens the `Save Scene As` modal. Confirming the form duplicates the current scene into a new scene and opens that copy in a new browser tab.

*Save Scene As modal for duplicating the current scene with a new name.* ### Shared Dialog Fields Both dialogs contain the same core fields: * `Scene Name`: required text field for the new or copied scene name * `Organization`: required read-only organization display Buttons: * `Continue` in `New Scene` * `Save` in `Save Scene As` ## Scene Properties The `Scene Properties` modal includes: * `Far Clip Plane`: maximum camera draw distance * `Near Clip Plane`: minimum camera draw distance Both fields accept numeric input and support keyboard arrows and mouse wheel changes while focused. ## Lighting Controls The lighting group in the `Scene Editor` ribbon includes: * A preset selector * Performance quality selection * A `Shadows` checkbox These are production-visible advanced scene controls and are part of the normal editor experience. ## Saving Scene Manager supports manual save and autosave. ### Manual Save Users can save by: * Clicking the save icon in the header * Pressing `Ctrl+S` or `Cmd+S` The app saves the current scene and shows toast feedback during the operation. ### Autosave Autosave is scheduled automatically after the last eligible change, using a short delay. Autosave can run when: * There are unsaved changes * A valid scene is open * The app is not already saving Autosave does not run when: * There are no unsaved changes * No valid scene is open * A save is already in progress * The user is actively dragging a transform gizmo ## Save Messages Users may encounter: * `Saving scene...` * `Scene saved successfully!` * `Save failed: ...` ## Save Workflow Tips * Save manually before closing the tab even when autosave is active. * Watch the footer until the scene returns to a saved state. * If a conflict warning appears, do not assume your local version is the only latest version.
