Douglas re the slow access to the menu. I've heard others say this too. I think it's from two things (1) if the thumbnail is previewing it's going to be slower for the menus to come down and (2) the hit area is smaller than in Bryce 4. You have to hit the top of the screen then the menu pops down. Hard to describe, but what I do is swipe my mouse up as far as the cursor will go and it works. If the thumbnail is rendering, I swipe the mouse up there and click. HTH Spit
