| | | In my opinion, the whole rendering system should be made Direct3D although that I know will create problems with culling. What really bugs me though is the EXTREMLEY difficult-to-use 3D rotaton. What happened to any kind of coordination at all? Not (...) (21 years ago, 13-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

Do you mean that it's extremely difficult to rotate things in MLCad or do you mean figuring out what the rotation is for a given line is extremely difficult? I find the former very (...)
