I know that you have the Carrara 3.0 beta but, as you launch the application, the screen image that launches will have a little, "b25" or similar number in the lower right hand corner. The number represents the build or version of the beta. My suspicion is that your issue has been corrected and will be gone with the next beta you recieve or with the final product. If the arrangement that came with your beta version doesn't allow for upgrading to the next beta version, you will have to wait. :( As long as we're working with a Beta,the program is a work-in-progress and will not be as "bug free" as the final version. But, it looks like it's been corrected :) I'm just glad I'm not the one to figure out all of the code that makes up a program like this work!
