LIST (Part 2 of 2):

(These first few fall, at least partially, under the well documented OpenGL (or lack thereof) issue and I believe is addressed in Pro, but would like to confirm):

-> Seems to have REALLY bad support for OpenGL ... does not like NVidia (the industry standard) video cards. Performance is actually hindered by using OpenGL. Shouldn't have to pay for PRO to get this fixed, but would gladly accept it as a side-benefit if I do get Pro for other reasons.

-> Interface is great, but screen updates are glacially SLOW. BRYCE is instantaneous in almost all situations, and if not, allows for tweaking of display (number of vertices displayed) depending on whether things are moving or static.

-> Animation is WAY over-simplified. There is no graph editor for animation, allowing you to adjust how keyframes are interpolated for example. Also, key frame management is horrible, has this improved at all?

-> Animation automatically "Eases-in/out" regardless of what setting you have it on. There is apparently no way to just have a straight linear animation, where steps are all equivalent.

-> Boolean objects anyone???? Not with Vue apparently ... or did I just totally miss this in the manual?

-> Any way to turn auto-keying off?? This is really annoying. Should be a toggle as to whether you want it to automatically add a keyframe when you change something or not!!

-> THE BIGGIE: There are severe problems smoothly dragging the timeline after importing an animated Poser scene Even a simple one. For me, I click and drag the timeline, the cursor ... one-onethousand, two-onethousand, three-onethou ...UPDATES, finally. Anyone else?

Also, for me opening the timeline not only slows ITSELF down, but the rest of interface as well. Would love to hear from people that do AND do not have the problem. If you haven't tried it yet and don't know what I mean, just try importing an ANIMATED poser scene and then to smoothly drag the timeline.

I REALLY hope most/all of this is corrected in PRO, especially this last one. I purchased Vue mainly to host Poser scenes and so far it has been unbearable to do any real work.

Looking forward to any/all comments.

Thanks,
Tim
