Spreadsheet

The Spreadsheet editor is used to inspect the geometry attributes of the active object, typically in order to debug geometry nodes.

The Spreadsheet editor.

Header

Show Only Selected

This option is only available if the object is in Edit Mode. When checked, only data for the selected geometry elements is shown.

Use Filter

Whether to use the filters that are defined in the Sidebar (see below).

View Menu

Toolbar T

Show or hide the tab panel on the left for creating and manipulating markers and masks.

Sidebar N

Show or hide the Sidebar.

---

Internal Attributes

Display attributes with names starting with a period that are meant for internal use.

---

Area

Area controls. See the user interface documentation for more information.

Main Region

The main region displays the attribute data in a spreadsheet format. Each column corresponds to an attribute or data property, and each row represents an element such as a vertex, face, spline, or instance.

Column names and row indices remain visible while scrolling both vertically and horizontally.

• Columns can be resized by clicking and dragging the vertical line between columns.

• Double clicking the vertical line automatically sizes the column to fit the content.

• Columns can be reordered by clicking and dragging the column header.

Note

Tooltips give more detail about the value, depending on the type. For example, Byte Color attributes are displayed as scene linear floats, but the actual integer values are displayed when hovering over the float values, and Matrix attribute values are only displayed in tooltips.

Data Set Region

Located on the left, this region controls which data is displayed in the spreadsheet.

Context Path

Displays the active object name in the panel header.

Clicking one of the arrows between the names to hide the modifier.

Clicking the icon locks the Spreadsheet editor to the currently active object and data path, keeping it visible even if you select another object. Click again to unlock.

Object Evaluation State

Defines which state of the object’s data is displayed:

Evaluated:

Shows data with all modifiers applied.

Original:

Shows the original object data, without modifiers.

Viewer Node:

Displays data from the active Viewer Node in Geometry Nodes.

You can also toggle between Evaluated and Viewer Node by clicking the / icon in the Viewer node’s header.

Viewer Path

Visible when Object Evaluation State is set to Viewer Node.

Shows the path from the modifier to the active viewer node. If the viewer node is nested inside group nodes, each group will appear in the path.

Geometry

Lets you browse nested geometries (e.g., a mesh inside an instance or a geometry collection).

Domain

Lets you choose the attribute domain to display, such as mesh vertices or curve splines.

The number of elements in each domain is shown next to its entry.

Sidebar

In the Sidebar, you can define filters so that only the rows matching these filters are displayed. Click Add Row Filter and set up the properties described below.

Enabled

Uncheck to temporarily disable the filter.

Column

The name of the column to filter on. If there is no column with the specified name, the filter will be grayed out and ignored.

If you want to filter on an attribute from another domain, you can use the Store Named Attribute Node to create a copy that’s converted to the current domain, then filter on that.

Operation

For numerical columns, you can select one of the following comparison operators. Other columns only support Equal To.

Equal To:

Only display rows whose value for the column is equal to the filter value (within the specified threshold).

Greater Than:

Only display rows whose value for the column is greater than the filter value.

Less Than:

Only display rows whose value for the column is less than the filter value.

Value

The filter value to compare the row value to.

Threshold

How much the row’s value is allowed to deviate from the filter value before it is excluded.

Status Bar

The status bar shows how many rows and columns there are, and how many rows remain after filtering.
