Title: VoidWorld Update Jan 25 2012
Post by: IStonia on January 24, 2012, 11:44:17 pm

new update.

Summary of changes:

  * A bug in mmb cut tool is fixed. It causes app crashes.
  * Viewport layout arrangements are saved on app exit.
  * Viewport under cursor will become the active viewport automatically.
  * For visual tools, Enter key will serve as acceptance. But if there are few input fields and one of them is focused, Enter key will behave like Tab key to confirm the modified value and shift focuse onto the next input control.
  * obj, dae and vws files can be merged into scene by drag-drop.
  * Two new basic streamline tools, Measure_Orthagraphic and Measure_SnapPoints under Generic Tools group.

Thanks!

maybe a pop up dialog when dragging files to screen that asks if you want to open the new scene or merge it with the existing on,. Would be a nice option.

Not sure about this. People may get annoyed if they have to respond to a dialog every time they drag a file or files into scene.

By the way, you have a minor spelling error in 'VoidWorld Latest Verison'.

Hi, I know I'm a little late on this, but as a suggestion, maybe you could use a modifier key, to decide between new scene, or merge with present scene, when an object is dragged in, like ctrl+drag.  Alternatively, something like right click and drag opens new scene when the object is dropped, with left click + drag = merging?
