From this it may not be clear what is the left square used for. It is used to assign a colour to that layer. Simple click on the box brings up a colour selector and result is like below.
Another new feature of Scene tab is ability to create layer groups . In Scene tab right mouse click and from context menu select New, Group Layer
New group is empty and one can just simply drag & drop layers into the group, just like in ArcMap. Of course, new group layer can have a colour assigned. If it is assigned it overrides colours of layers within it.
From CGA standpoint getTreeKey is important. From help documentaion:
The unique TreeKey of the shape being derived, formatted as a string list. The TreeKey is a list of integer numbers denoting the path from the root shape to the shape being derived in the shape tree. Each number denotes the 0-based child index
Sample code for using getTreeKey
CGA CodeInit-->
print(getTreeKey() + " - Init")
center(xz)
extrude(10)
comp(f) { front: Facade}
Facade-->
print(getTreeKey() + " - Facade")
split(y) {'0.5 : Floor }*
Floor-->
print(getTreeKey() + " - Floor")
split(x) { '0.1 : Wall | '0.3 : Window | '0.1 : Wall }*
Wall-->
print(getTreeKey() + " - Wall")
Window-->
print(getTreeKey() + " - Window")
