Andrew,
First of all, I'll add my thanks for your continuing to develop MBC.
I'm also using MacOS 10.3.2 on a 400 MHz Titanium PowerBook.
Here are a few early problems/comments/suggestions:
- If I close and re-open the part browser window in the same MBC session, the
part preview window is solid black the second time.
- The W/w wireframe toggle key doesn't seem to be working.
- A few (currently unofficial) parts have a problem whereby underside tubes show
through the top surface of the part. This affects parts 42060/42061 (Wedge 12 x
3 x 1 Rounded Left/Right) and 41881.dat (Windscreen 12 x 6 x 12 Curved). I can
provide screenshots of the problem if you'd haven't already seen it.
- The full text editor is a vast improvement, but it would be nice if it could
be brought up in a separate window. Even on the Ti's wide-format LCD, the
drawer effect takes up a lot of screen real estate.
- I'd personally prefer that the normal horizontal move step be 10 LDU (1/2
stud), as in LDGLite, rather than 20 LDU. Since tastes may differ, I'd suggest
that the move steps be user-adjustable. In such a modification, it would be
nice if the fine setting allowed for fractional-LDU moves for very fine
positioning, especially of rotated parts.
- It would be nice to be able to select multiple parts in one of the
more-or-less usual ways (shift- or command-clicking) so multiple pieces could
easily be moved as a group.
Regards, Tom
