Hi Danny - re: spaceball rotation and different methods for view rotations - for the next beta I've added a new option that controls how the 3D view does its rotations:



If you choose the new "Free rotation" option there, I think it will do the style that you are more accustomed to, where it will be more like rotating the object.

This will be under Options / View / Rotate/Pan/Zoom options.

Please let me know if it does not seem to do the right thing when you get a chance to try it.

That's Great Michael !

Can't wait to test it. So what's the time frame on the next beta release, if you don't mind me asking.

Cheers

Well, I wanted to get it done this week but I'm not quite sure about that now - it takes more time to add in these options than you might think, several hours of work for each one really between testing and setting up the UI for translation, etc... etc...

But these are also things that other people have asked for in the past as well too.

I'd say it is actually looking likely to take until next week sometime to get all the stuff I want into it.

That's fine Michael, waiting longer for a stable product is better than receiving a quick buggy one ;)

Cheers

Sounds good, I'll love this free rotation mode too :o)

Hi PaQ, yes I believe it is the same style that you were asking for before as well.
