Collection {#collection}

A collection is a list, with a depth of 1, containing points, polylines and/or polygons. It cannot contain positions. An entity can belong to multiple collections.

Description Example
Workflow of making a collection
Representation of a collection in the 3D Viewer
Representation of a collection in the Attribute Table

When clicking on the collection row, e.g co0, in the [Attribute Table](chapter_1_mobius_interface/3D_view.md), the selected collection will be highlighted in blue in the [3D Viewer](..\chapter_1_mobius_interface/3D_view.md).

See Common Bugs and Misconceptions: Not an Entity


#### Modify Collection
##### Method 1

make.Collection function also allows users to add new entities to an existing collection (parent collection), by creating a new collection under the existing collection.

Description Example
Workflow of adding entities to a collection ![](/assets/chapter_2_assets/Modify Collection M1-1.png)

##### Method 2

Using modify.Collection users can add or remove entities from an existing collection, or add one collection to another collection (parent collection).

Description Example
Workflow of adding entities to a collection ![](/assets/chapter_2_assets/Modify Collection M2-1.png)
Representation of the updated collection in the 3D Viewer ![](/assets/chapter_2_assets/Modify Collection M2-2.png)
The new collection now includes the polygon (pgon) and its new extrusion (ex). Polylines are highlighted in red when selected.
