When are Insert icons displayed?

Under the following conditions insert icons are displayed.

Enough space

There must be enough space to arrange Insert smart object Insert icons around an object symbol. Therefore, the model display must be large enough to display Insert smart object Insert icons in the model in addition to the objects.

Thus, Insert smart object Insert icons are displayed when Smart Modeling is enabled and the model display is equal or greater than 60 %.

Permission to use a connection

The user must have a privilege to use the outgoing connection of the selected object. If a user does not have the privilege because the used filter does not allow the connection, the Insert smart object Insert icon for the corresponding direction is not displayed.

No connection access
