==Additional interface elements==
Besides the main interface elements described above, there are also a number of additional elements in the interface. These will appear and disappear depending on your interaction with the project.

The Viewer is the main interface that allows users to interact with the project session and 3D Visualization from the perspective of a stakeholder. It is rendered on top of the 3D Visualization and displays panels to inspect the Current Situation and Future Designed state of a project. It also contains panels that allow stakeholders to plan actions that will change the Planned situation.

To change the current situation of a project, users will have to user the Editor. The editor panels are added around the viewer interface, as shown in the image below.
