Users with LightWave v9 now have a subset of Modeler's tools that they can use inside Layout. However, if you just want a simple, standard ball, cube or cyclorama for your scenes, it can be a bit of a problem to have to go through and find them all...

To start with you are going to need to make your standard objects. I find it's best to create primitives based on the default measurements of 1m, and for the floor/cyclorama make 'em big.

Once made, write-protect them so that they cannot be modified and save them to a safe place in your content structure. I tend to make a directory called "std_objects".

Now we need to do the Layout bit.
