Back when 4.23 first came out I installed it, saw the scene info tab (which I use a LOT) was gone, so reinstalled 4.22 and continued on my way. Yesterday I decided to install 4.23 again, forgetting why I uninstalled it. No scene info tab, uninstalled again. I then wondered if the 4.22 scene info dll would work with 4.23. I copy and paste it out of the Studio folder, reinstall 4.23, go to paste the 4.22 dll into the plugin folder, there is already one in there. Have a look, yes, there it is with a new date on it but it doesn't show up when Studio is opened. Delete it, put in the 4.22 version, VOILA!, we have lift off, scene info shows up. Today I installed 4.24.0.3, same, same. Copied the older dll into the plugin folder and it shows up. Now I know this I will also file a bug report. This fix only works if you have manually downloaded and saved previous Studio version 4.22.

    If you're not aware of it, the Scene info tab has been integrated into the Scene tab, under the new Info tab.

    It works the same, plus gives a drop down to select any item in the scene.

    I was not aware of that, so thank you for the info. I went and had a quizz but I'll stick with the scene info tab as it gives the overall scene geometry stats and not just the selected item.

    Edit: forgot to put the 2.24 dll back in the plugin folder, doh! And I can now see everything...thank you very much for the info.

    You can split the info page into its own pane if you want to - right-click on its tab and select Detach. The detached pane can then be docked like any other. To get rid of it, right-click on the tab>Reattach to Scene

    Cool.

    Would be nice if we had the option of mini tabs for everything else.

    Off to make a feature request.

    Quite a few panes have gained thea bility to split into new, detachable sub-pages - for example the Content Library can now open a container in a new page which can then be detached to a full pane.

    I'm probably just missing it, but how do you do that?

    It's in the 2025 Alpha, in the Content Library pane, right-click on a Container (folder, category, product) and select Duplicate Page.
