2. Select Enable New Viewport Interaction Model (EXPERIMENTAL).

3. Restart Lumberyard Editor.

4. Open a level and, in the Asset Browser, select and drag two assets into the viewport.

5. In the viewport, select an entity. A manipulator appears on the entity. The entity is locked for editing. If you click another entity in the viewport, the first entity remains selected.

   Use the following shortcuts on a selected entity.
