objects
Polygon objects
3D geometric object that made up of faces, vertices and edges
NURBS
3D geometric objects made up of patches of the curves that look like "V" or "U"
Text

NURBS curves
Curves that are made for constructing objects
Construction planes
A simple plane that will define the XYZ axis of the objects
Image planes
2D planes that project different images
Locators
A icon-like object that only represent unrendered position

copies vs instance
limitations on instanced
no light effect
can't use something like extrude or insert
can't have hierachy
can caused error if the ref. file is being replaced
can't apply a cluster on
