Overview

The following pages will show you the available APIs in CreativeEditor SDK's CreativeEngine that allow scene modification through the block API.

Blocks are the base building blocks for scenes and represent elements on the canvas. You're able to create complex hierarchies of blocks by appending them as children to other blocks either directly or through groups.
