Outliner
The Outliner is a panel that shows an outline (or scene graph representation) of the valence file you are working on. This panel is where you can reorder, rename, delete, detach instances, duplicate, and more.
The selected items in the scene are shown as highlighted orange items in the Outliner. You can also select items in the Outliner. Furthermore, each mesh node has a submesh (or potentially multiple submeshes), which when tapped will select all the faces in that submesh.

Reorder Node
To reorder nodes in the outliner, touch down and hold for a second, then drag the node on another node (the future parent node) and release. This will parent the node you dragged to the node you dropped it on (see below).

Context Menu
To see other things you can do with a node in the Outliner, simply touch down on its label and hold. This will expose a context menu with actions you can take. If the node is a mesh that has been instanced, you can detach the instance by using the detach instance option in the context menu (see below).
