>>Please tell me this is better than it looks.
It actually does work out fairly well, in spite of all the myriad buttons;
better than you'd first expect. Once the association is made in each set of
buttons (what each set's function is), it's fairly easy to drift the pointer
across the buttons and stop when you see the text description of the button
your pointer is over.
One thing of note as Bill said, the interface of Real3D is highly configurably.
When I was working on the spaceship, I found myself working primarily in one
view, and just using the freeform creations and modifications buttons; I saved
a screen setup of just one window, those buttons, and the select window (which
shows your objects and levels). Took less than a minute to set up, and I used
it to finish the ship.
from Bill's message…
>>He might hate it too <g> John ?
No; the complaints I have on it are more windows related, and occur in my
custom interfaces as well (though mine aren't nearly so custom :^). I've been
surprised at the amount of switching 'twixt various setups I've ended up doing.
