You can add keyboard shortcuts if you wish :) Now my priorities are focused on Solmech conference next week. I need to finish my calculations. (and I have just started them, this is why I added those buttons - to make it bearable to work with lattice ;) > (Orienting by gravity engine is non-obvious and will probably make > people wonder what determines the default orientation - until they read > the code ;-) ) agreed. I dunno - in 10 years maybe we will have a nice "Preferences" dialog box and there people could specify the default orientation :) > > did you svn up?

I was thinking about labelling those axes too, with small 'x' for the red one, etc... If I get to it, I'll also look at that problem with perspective. -- Janek Kozicki | _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
