I have a suggestion for fututre releases…. There should be an "Are you sure (Y/N)?" prompt on the HOLD button! It's way too easy to write a newly messed up mesh over the one I meant to fetch. Also I would like to see a few device selection buttons on the screen you get when you choose "renderer, render" instead of haviing to go to "renderer, setup, etc…". I switch from VGA 320×200 to RDPADI frequently and it would be great to just punch a button to select a device from the "render" screen. BTW, thanks for being here!

The issue of an "are you sure" prompt for the Hold button has been raised many times, but each time it's been shot down by folks who want more immediate response, without having to deal with a prompt. We _did_ separate the Hold and Fetch buttons in 3DSr2… they were right next to each other in release 1, and putting the Undo button between them help a lot. You're other suggestion regarding more device control from inside the Rendering dialog has been on the wishlist for awhile. Who knows? – G

If the hackers insist on no confirmations: A setup option confirm Y/N, or Multi-level hold with an undelete type facility would be nice. Ali
