Abstract
A mechanism is provided for integrating into a scene at a client an object that is defined by a set of data. The scene is displayed in a first display region of a display device. A selectable item is displayed in a second display region of the display device. The selectable item corresponds to the object but is generated based on less data than the set of data defining the object. User input is received that selects the selectable item displayed within the second display region for incorporation into the scene. In response to receiving the user input, the set of data is retrieved and the object is generated on the client based on the set of data and displayed within the scene in the first display region of the display device.
