Hi andras,

> What is the exact plan for V3? Sorry I found
> the wishlist topic too crowded.

There is no exact plan - I just have a general goal of implementing various features that a lot of people have requested.

A lot of stuff will come from the "top 5 feature request for v3" discussion thread here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=3628.1

If you have some particular features that you'd like to see in v3, add your top 5 highest priority ones to that thread there so they'll be in the running.

The actual development is pretty fluid - which particular things get developed depend on a lot of factors like if a good idea for the UI pops up, or if it's an area that can solve a lot of problems and questions that people are frequently asking.

Those things, like having a good idea for the UI and analyzing repeated questions are things that are not necessarily predictable and can be constantly in flux so it's not easy to base a long lasting plan on them. So because of that the development of v3 will also be more fluid and I'm not 100% sure in advance how it will go yet.

Right now during the early stages I am primarily focused on some new deformation tools like the new Flow and Twist tools, and I'll probably be working on this area for a little bit longer before switching to something else.

Hi Mike,

> I hope some of these things are in consideration: :-)

Those things will get lost in this thread - please prioritize your top 5 and put them on the Top 5 features for v3 request thread here:

> 3) A view control for angular Orthographic Projection. (Shown below)

There are already controls for this under Options > View - set the view to be orthographic by setting Options > View > "3D View projection" = Parallel.

Then some specific angles for the view direction can be set with the dialog that pops up with the "3D view angles" button again on Options > View.

Some particular orthographic views use some specific view angles set by a formula - you can set up a script to set those angles with a shortcut key, see the Set isometric and Set dimetric scripts on Petr's page here:

Thank you, I posted something in the topic.

AAACK! If it was a snake it would've bit me. I mystified by how I missed or forgotten about this feature...
You can even export to .ai with the result in Isometric!
I've got to make a chart or something... Many of these cool non-UI features can get lost out of sight, out of mind.

Thanks Michael!

I tend to agree about having UI controls for isometric or dimetric views.
Maybe in options/view/ "3d view angles" in some checkboxes, although it's quite deep.

And Michael could also tell those oddballs asking about oblique views them that it's so last century!
