These are some of the things that have run through my mind on occasion ... Add an "Apply to Selected" option in the material room. Perhaps when you go to add a material to an object, have a dialog pop up so that you can check the material zones that will use the currently selected material. The Group Editor has an "Auto Group" button that creates groups based on polygons that cover the bones in the setup room. It would also be nice to have it the other way around ... have an "Auto Bone" feature in the Setup Room that creates bones based on the groups in a figure or object, without having to create a PHI file. The top level of the Library window now shows buttons named Figures, Faces, Hands, etc. It would be nice, instead, to show a thumbnail of the currently selected Figure, Face, Hands, etc so that you don't have to backtrack into another library to select a camera or a light set. To select another library item, click the Figure icon to open a separate window or flyout menu to select a new item and have it replace the previous item in the "current items" list. Cameras and lights that are more along the line of those that you use in 3D Studio Max. To create a camera or light, you first draw the origin point, and then click in the direction you want it to point. You can then move the origin point or the target point to edit the placement. Zoom Extents, Zoom to Selected, Zoom In, and Zoom Out features. It would make it SO much easier to find lights or cameras in orthographic views! In addition to a "Drop to Floor" feature, have a "Drop to Surface" feature that allows you to drop the currently selected object or body part to the next lowest surface (such as a floor, or a bed, or a chair). (been said before) ... Multiple undo's. Hey, someone will say it eventually! ;-) A method of creating morphs that is easier than magnets. Something like ZBrush would be awesome. Add the ability to make symmetrical selections in the group editor. Oh, that would be SO nice!!!
