Introduction

The Generation Scope options control whether the entire selected object is shown in the generated code window or if only the current state is selected.

If Selected Object is selected, then the entire object's generated code is displayed.

The Selected State option is useful if you would like to see only the changes made by the selected state.

Selected Object option results in the entire element's code being generated
Selected State option displays only the current state
