# Bringing a Look File into the Scene Graph

You can bring in a look file into the scene graph for later overriding or assigning to /root (to set a shot’s global settings). This is done by adding the look file to the Look Files list of the LookFileManager node.

You can add a look file to the Look Files list in a number of ways:

• Adding the look file currently assigned to a scene graph location.

• Adding a look file from all the look files in the current scene graph.

• Adding a look file from a list of all look files at or below a scene graph location.

• Adding a look file that is not assigned anywhere within the scene graph.

To add the look file currently assigned to a scene graph location, right-click inside the Look Files list (or click ) and select Add Look File Asset From Scene graph Selection.

To add a look file from all the look files in the current scene graph:

| 1. | Right-click inside the Look Files list (or click ) and select Find All Look File Assets In Incoming Scene... .

The Find Look File Assets On Incoming Scene dialog displays. The dialog is populated with all the look files in the current scene graph.

| 2. | Right-click on a look file you want to add and select Add Look File Asset.

You can repeat this step for as many look files as you want to add.

| 3. | Click Close when you have finished.

To add a look file from a list of all look files at or below a scene graph location:

| 1. | With one or more scene graph locations selected, right-click inside the Look Files list (or click ) and select Find All Look File Assets Beneath Selection In Incoming Scene... .

The Find Look File Assets On Incoming Scene dialog displays. The dialog is populated with all the look files assigned at or below the scene graph location selected.

| 2. | Right-click on a look file you want to add and select Add Look File Asset.

Repeat this step for as many look files as you want to add.

| 3. | Click Close when you have finished.

To add a look file that is not assigned anywhere within the scene graph:

| 1. | Right-click in the Look Files list (or click ) and select Advanced > Add Look File Asset From Browser... .

| 2. | Select the look file within the browser and click Accept.

The look file is added to the LookFileManager Look Files list and assigned as the look file to /root. To unassign it, uncheck the Add As Look File Root Asset checkbox.
