Thanks for the hint with the popupmenu on rightclick in the minifig-genenerator
window. If it do not turn, I do not have the driver resetting problem and can
configure my minifig very well.
Also that this setting is stored for next time starting the application helps a
lot.
Because this is a might program it would be very, very useful to have a short
manual for a simple scene. The manual seems to be good, but there is so much
information, that if I had read one page after the other, I do not know what was
on the page before.
Maybe you can make such a Quickguide?
