Depending on the task, the right-side menu has one or two tabs: [Create tab](docId\:i0ZNcPAdQC20kUIw8ZXZp) and [Edit tab](docId\:zicM7AvHQ1eaF_HKrqLFp). You can toggle between the two tabs by using the shortcut`,`

The Edit tab includes all **objects, object groups,&#x20;**&#x61;n&#x64;**&#x20;properties** in a task.

## Object links

When you turn on the object links, you will see white lines between all connected shapes in the scene. It can help you determine whether links are missing or incorrect. On 3D line and lane tasks in lidar, turn on View > [Show object link area](docId\:uqZMVCnqfx8NYUZfkIzex) to also shade the area between two linked lines or lanes.

## Error alerts on objects

When a task runs validation, the object list flags any objects that are not finished. An alert icon appears on the affected row, and hovering over it tells you what is wrong:

- On an object: **The object contains unfinished properties** — the object is missing one or more required property values.
- On an object group: **The group contains unfinished objects** — one or more objects in the group are incomplete; the objects inside show **The object contains unfinished properties**.
- On a class (Create tab): **This class contains errors** — at least one object of that class is incomplete.

Use these icons to find what to fix before you validate or submit the task.

## Filter objects

Use the filter to define which objects you want to see in the list.&#x20;

### Class

Show all classes or select the ones you want to see.

### Inspect

Shows objects based on review state:

- **Only objects with feedback** — objects that have received feedback.
- **Only objects with errors or warnings** — objects flagged by task validation.

### Object Information

Shows objects based on their data:

- **Only objects with shape, group or property errors** — objects with missing or invalid annotations.
- **Only unlocked objects** — objects that are not locked.

### Cuboid Size

**Consistent sizes across frames:** Shows objects where *Unify size* made the final box size edit, or where no edits were made after creation.

**Inconsistent sizes across frames:** Shows objects where the size differs between frames.

### Object Visibility

Shows objects marked as visible in the current frame.

If you draw an object that your current filters would hide, a message appears: **Your filters have been altered due to the latest annotation.** Click **View filters** to jump to the Edit tab and open the filter menu so the new object stays visible.
