Follow the updated written steps

Open the contents controls

You can customise the contents shown inside an airlock model. Select a three-stage airlock and open Airlock setup. The Show in 2D and 3D controls determine which items appear.

Choose the visible equipment

Use the checkboxes for the inner-stage bucket and sponge, middle-stage bucket and sponge, and wall bags. Watch each item appear or disappear as you match the drawing to your intended arrangement.

Choose the viewing panel

Enable a viewing panel and choose Flat vision panel or Bubble vision panel. Use the wall selector to choose from the positions available for this layout. The panel moves on the model as you change the setting.

Inspect the details

A three-stage model also offers a middle-stage viewing panel. Switch to 3D and move closer to inspect the panels and contents, then return to the plan to continue working.
