HEGIAS.configurator – The Combo-Editor



With the Combo Editor, you combine multiple objects into a reusable combination (Combo) – for example a workspace made up of a desk, chair, and screen. Individual components can be given alternatives, between which you can freely choose later.


The Combo Editor is available to all members of an organization (Junior, Senior, Admin). Only admins can make a Combo public and thereby available platform-wide – including to other organizations and end customers.


To the Library


Opening and creating a Combo

You'll find Combos in the Library under the (Combos) tab.




  • Use the (+) to create a new Combo.
  • Switch between (Public) and (Private) to show platform-wide Combos or your own.
  • Use the search and the category selection to find existing Combos.



Placing objects

In the (Objects) tab, add the desired objects to the Combo and place them in the 3D view.


Placing objects


  • At the top, you can see how many parts have already been placed.
  • A selected object can be moved, rotated, scaled, and deleted using the tools.
  • Use (Cancel) to discard the Combo, or (Save) to save it.


Components and alternatives

Each placed object is a component of the Combo (e.g. "office chair"). You can assign multiple interchangeable objects to a component as alternatives. The object chosen first is the default.


Creating variants


To add alternatives:


  • Select the component and give it a component label (e.g. "office chair"). You can enter this in DE / EN / FR / IT.
  • Use (+ Add) to add an alternative:
    • (Other object) – choose another object from the library.
    • (Duplicate current) – copy the current object as a basis.
    • (None) – an empty option in which no object is shown.


This creates a selection per component that can be switched between later (e.g. "Computer: 3 options", "Office chair: 5 options").


Naming and classification

In the (Details) tab, you describe and categorize the Combo.


  • Enter the name and description per language (Deutsch, English, Français).
  • Under Classification, select the category and subcategory.


Using a Combo in the configurator

You place a saved Combo in your scene just like a single object. Once it is selected, the Product Combination panel opens on the right.


Combo in the configurator


  • (Adjust combination) opens the tab on the left where you switch between the stored alternatives for each component (e.g. computer, office chair).
  • (Edit components) opens the individual components for adjustment.
  • (Dissolve combination) separates the Combo back into individual objects.
  • Using the object tools, you can move, rotate, and scale the Combo as a whole.
Edits to the components only apply within the scene. For general changes, use the library view as described above.
