Elegant, no. But powerful yes!

But what else to include for other users with other specific tasks; image manipulations tools similar to photoshop; page layout tools similar to Quark; 3D rendering tools, the list goes on... I'd prefer Rev to be able to *talk* to these specialist tools rather than be a poor relation in an attempt to replicate and keep up with current specialist trends. >I'd just like to see Rev be one of the tools that allows that so I can keep using it >for my applications! I don't doubt that everyone on the list agrees with you !
