Hi everyone,

I want to select more than one nodes at the same time.  
In the image you can see that plane node is selected. If I click on another node, highlighted line changes. However, I want to be able to select two different nodes at the same time, and I want to change their visibilities via a button or a keypress. Is it possible to add this kind of property inside the scene explorer?

Can we implement some methods for the scene explorer and the inspector in our projects? Does it depend on the library files or it is it extensible? If not, I have to implement my own inspector with a gltf parser

It is open source so you can totally fork it and even better do a PR to add the feature if you feel it 😃
