Just thought of another few things...
It would be great if a locked object couldn't be selected in the document display window, but only through the hierarchy menu or that drop down list, and if it didn't highlight when moused over. I have dozens of locked background objects that all want to compete for my mouse's attention when all I want to do is select an arm of my foreground figure...
It would be great if when you select an object that's parented to a figure if the figure's name showed in the document window instead of whatever figure was selected before.
Example- hair objects: Say I have a hair prop on V4 called V4 Hair, but I have M4 selected. It will show M4 as the figure name with "V4 Hair" next to it. It should change the figure name to V4, if that's what the hair is parented to.
It would be cool if lights that are set to invisible STAYED invisible even if you selected them to make a change, like all other objects do. Lights always turn back to visible once selected.
And by visible, I mean the icons, not whether it's on or not. I make them invisible because they get distracting and in the way of what I want to see at times, especially when I have alot of them in a scene.
Sure I could change the size to so small you can't see them, but when you reload a scene, the lights are back to normal size again... which reminds me...
