"I am aware that making a "pretty UI" is - at least from a programmer's stand point, not a "cool" challenge, but having nice and meaningful colors, good drag and drop functionality, text instead of ugly icons and all the other nice little things as one finds in the ICE Tree or Modo's schematic view make a huge difference for the paying (!) customer, i.e. the gals and guys that spend hours and hours using the app.That's what makes Softimage so special: it just feels right and it actually is a real pleasure to do things, even complicated things. One truly has the feeling that somebody sat down and thought about how to implement something and - most importantly - how to make the user interaction as pleasant and intuitive as possible." Couldn't agree more with you Eric. I was introduced to the node editor some months ago,and for a second though maya actually got an actual nice node editor as the render tree in xsi.that didnt last long... sure is better then the crappy hypergraph & connection editor... butstill looks awful to me and makes shading (something I actually really enjoy doing in the render tree) something very unpleasant...the devil is in the details and they surely have not understand this, xsi did so though.. such a shame (oh wait the foundry also got it! :)
