Adding primitives to the canvas
Xstudio’s primitives (figure
) are empty Xstudio objects that you can use to create or
control graphics elements within Xstudio scenes and control panels. Some primitives are
only available for the Scene, whereas others are exclusive to the Control side (see
for a description of each of the available primitives).

Hover the mouse pointer over the canvas and the pointer changes. While holding down the
left mouse button, drag the mouse to create the initial size of the primitive on the canvas.
