Panels in Spatial Editor

Spatial Editor allows you to place and orient multiple panels in a composition, as well as assign unique IDs needed for your Spatial SDK project.

In the Spatial SDK, panels serve as containers for your 2D content. You can direct these panels to existing Android Activity code, which allows the panels to execute complete Android applications. The SDK is compatible with various 2D Android frameworks, giving you the flexibility to choose the framework that best suits your needs, or to continue using classic XML. For more detailed information on working with panels, you can explore additional resources.

In Spatial Editor, panels are treated as nodes that can be placed into the composition and are manipulated using the same translation, rotation, and scale gizmos.

To add a panel to your composition, select the Add a 2D Panel icon from the Toolbar:

Each panel in Spatial SDK is identified by a unique ID. To assign or update an ID:

The ID you enter in Spatial Editor corresponds to the ID used in your SDK panel registration. The Spatial SDK supports multiple ID formats including layout resources, custom resource IDs, and integer resources. For detailed examples and implementation guidance, see Panel ID Format Options in the registration documentation.
