# Composition Manager The Compositions Manager allows you to manage the compositions in the current model, both [Render Only](https://skatter.help.lindale.io/generating#render-only-generation) and [In Model](https://skatter.help.lindale.io/generating#in-model-generation). ![](https://777932824-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MJXK0YXrcDUpbe_Du_o%2Fuploads%2F7Pcr5D4CtyFEa5I6wo7X%2Fcompomanager.png?alt=media\&token=6a9beb77-3932-4146-ab96-fb72b043f8e1) ### Visibility You can toggle the visibility of existing compositions by clicking on the (Render Only) or (In Model) icons. The visibility can also be controlled by [SketchUp Tags](https://help.sketchup.com/en/sketchup/controlling-visibility-tags) (formerly known as *Layers*). After assigning a composition to a tag using the drop-down menu, toggling the tag will also toggle the composition visibility. ### Re-generate You can re-generate a composition at any time using the icon, without opening the Composition Editor. This can be useful when changing the geometry of a host or a mask. ## Exporting compositions Click on the icon to export a composition. It will create a *.skatter* file that you can then import into another project using the Compositions Manager or [3D Bazaar](https://skatter.help.lindale.io/manual/3d-bazaar). The *Export Scattered Objects* and *Export Materials* options let you embed the *Scattered Objects* (as *.skp* files) and *Materials* (as *.skm* files) in the .skatter file. In this way, these entities will also be imported when you import the compositions in another model. {% hint style="info" %} *Export Scattered Objects* also exports rendering dependencies like proxies and maps {% endhint %} You can optionally select a cover image that will be used as a thumbnail in 3D Bazaar. ## Importing compositions Click on the icon to import a composition that has been previously exported as a .skatter file. {% hint style="info" %} The Composition Manager is also capable of importing compositions from Skatter 1 stored as .sklib files. {% endhint %} You can also browse and import compositions from [3D Bazaar](https://skatter.help.lindale.io/manual/3d-bazaar).
