# 3D Hierarchy Filters

On a scene graph, it is important to be able to retrieve the object quickly and easily. For that purpose, filters are available in the 3D Hierarchy window:

## Location

Several filters are available, from the simplest to the more advanced ones.

### Classical

The simplest one is directly accessible when hovering over the "Name" through the filter icon:

This filter already provides several basic filters type:

### Others

Right-clicking the "Name" label provides access to other filters of the 3D Hierarchy:

E.g. the "Auto Filter Row":

## Advanced filter

More advanced filters are available within the "Filter Editor", allowing you to create a block of a filter with advanced conditions:

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.depence.com/depence-construction/depence-scene-graph-and-grouping/3d-hierarchy-filters.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
