I have been using Turbo Silver since it first came out, and I STILL have a real hard time with the modeller. The renderer is second to none, but creating and editing complex objects seems maddening to me. I find myself wishing that there was a more reliable way of selecting points, for example. If you have a cube that is perpendicular to the Front, Top, and Right Views, I don't know any reliable way for selecting, say, all the top point (let's assume I want to scale them). A selector device would be most welcome. (Or, if the system provided a facility to specify a "depth" into the display that you want selection limited to) [D. If you know of something that I've missed, please let me know. I'd like to start creating more sophisticated models.
