Rotation during furniture import
Emmanuel,

With SH3D v3.4 you replaced the old 90 degree rotation with 1 degree rotation. Although I am happy with this finer control, I have the feeling that there is room for improvement. Currently, when you want to rotate an object 90 degrees, you have to click 90 times. That's a bit much, and the chance of error is far too big, resulting in 89 or 91 degree rotation, and objects that don't fit perfectly.

Maybe you could add 3 or 4 (radio) buttons beneath the arrow buttons. Inside or underneath each button it reads 1°, 15°, 90°, or something similar. To make it even more perfect you might add a counter that shows the rotation of the active direction.

Re: Rotation during furniture import
I chose to display the angle off the current rotation axis in a tooltip associated to the arrow button the user clicks on. See Version 3.4 Beta 11.
