Description

Toggles between the synchronized and desynchronized states of parent and child objects in the Objects and Grids panels.

The default is t, which is the synchronized mode. In this mode, when the visibility or selectability of a parent object is changed, the visibility and selectability of child objects is reset to coincide with that of the parent object.
