About the levels menu I have a suggestion that might make the levels menu a bit easier to read. Using words like hide and show instead of make, and also grouping it, the menu could look something like this: Add level Add level at same elevation --- Hide selected level Show only selected level Show all levels --- Modify selected level Delete selected level Could this be an idea? What do you think? Xiste |

Re: About the levels menu I used Make viewable / unviewable rather than Hide / Display / Show to avoid confusion with the Display menu items in the 3D view menu. So a level can be viewable but hidden in the 3D view. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: About the levels menu I see the problem. Show and Hide are common terms, but they might, as you point out, create confusion. Another thing: Would it be possible that the modify level window could pop up automatically when adding a new level? That would be great for naming and for setting height and especially floor thickness, something I have noticed that I tend to forget. Xiste |

Re: About the levels menu @Xiste: I absolutely agree with you! To make something un-viewable is just a complicated way of saying hide. Hide and show are much better terms, as they are precisely to the point and immediately leads you in the right direction. I really don't see Puybaret's point here, and how this can create any confusion. We're dealing with the visibility of levels. What can that possibly be confused with? That said, I think custom shortcuts would be a great idea as the program continues to expand and get more and more options. Photoshop has several hundreds commands we can define our own personal shortcuts for. The automatic pop-up is also a great idea! Cec |
