A couple of suggestions for the next version:

[Ceciliabr]

1) A shortcut for modifying the virtual visitor.[/b]

2) Adding four additional handles to selected objects, for manipulating the size.
Suggestion:




3)[/b] An option to "make only this level viewable", that is, to make everything BUT the selected level un-viewable.

4) A command to "show all walls and floors".

5) Make objects that are duplicated by using the alt+drag-option, be duplicated on their original level.

6) An option to darken the interface or manipulate the interface colours ( select and modify a colour-theme). Darker colour-themes are less straining on the eyes when you work for several hours on a project.

I forgot :
On 5): also an option for "make ALL levels viewable".

And:
add walls and rooms to the object list and allow hiding them

[Miker777]

I like the idea of being able to hide walls mirakels, but could it be an option in "modify walls", otherwise the object list could get really long and each would need to be identified in some way.

@mirakels & Miker777

After having given it some thought, I find that by keeping walls on separate levels, this option is taken care of by my suggestion #3.

@Miker777: if using modify walls/rooms, how can you unhide them again?
(unless you hide/unhide ALL walls at the same time but that is not what I want...)

[mirakels]

About the wall in the object list, you can always group them.
And I guess the number of walls is less than the number of other objects in a room so it would not enlarge the list to much I think.

I wouldn't be so sure. You consider single room - what if I want to create some kind of maze/labyrinth? You don't know what will be Cecilia's next project [;)]


Guys, what do you think?

Unfortunately, it could make "Modify walls" window too big for my miserable screen. Comparison I have no idea how to prevent this enlargement - maybe "Wall in 3D view" button (just like "Modify baseboard") and another little window with transparency slider and top color?

And other possible improvements:
- Instead of single "Semi-transparent" box for "Pattern in plan" - two or three boxes, e.g.: "25% opacity", "50%" and "75%"(no slider),
- sliders should have some "steps"/"stops"(?) with captions e.g.: "25%", "50%", "75%" - It would be easier to remember last used value(no need to count "stops" - "it was 11th or 13th stop?").

[Miker777]

oops guess i didn't really think that through [;)]
