"Asset Name" refers to the name of the asset as displayed in the Assets Palette and in Content Manager. This is not the same as the Object Name (see the next section) |
You must have an object (or objects) selected for an Asset Name to be shown and for this menu to be available.
![]() |
If more than one object has been selected then the name and position data shown will be for the last selected object. If different objects (with different kuid codes) have been selected then a count of the additional objects will be added. The (+2) shown in the object name in the image on the left indicates that 2 additional different objects are in the group of selected objects. |
Next to the Asset Name is a small white Down Arrowhead. Left Click on the arrowhead to open its menu.

"Object Name" refers to the name that you give to an object |
You can give any object in your Trainz World an identifying name. In some cases a name is vital for AI and session operations, in other cases it will be needed as a display feature - for example: to be shown on a station nameboard. You must have the object (or objects) selected for this option to be available. If more than one object has been selected then only the last object (the one with the Context Icon) will be affected |

It is recommended that you also make use of either Step |
The second filter is optional and identifies the type of asset that will be selected by the filter. This option can be selected by a Left Click on a icon that represents the different types of assets or selecting the type of asset from a drop down list. |
Options: Choose from:-
|
OR |
|
The third filter is also optional. You can enter a string of text characters that will be used to search the asset names and their descriptions for a match. Those assets that return a positive match, together with a positive asset type, will be shown in the filter name list. |
