That is really interesting, Fantastic cmc!

I will definately look through & try to find a reference to that. I was wondering why objects appeared right in front of me in an empty scene. Then be so far away in any direction. Guess it depends on the shape & size of your terrain & other things ouside the objects you bring in.

Things can land far away way, down in between the two sides of a hill or mountainous type of terrain as a result of the offset . It would probably be easier to change in that position box to 0,0,0, the move it where you want. Terragen 2 is set up where you can mouse around your screen & you automatically get the coordinates for x, y & Z. Then you just copy them over to the object box. IT would be nice if coordinates were pointed out anywhere you set your mouse on the screen. It would make it easier to place & find objects. Coordinates other then 0,0,0, are only good, if you know where the 3 points intersect.

You can only put numbers in that numerics section if you have those numbers. Why would they point out numbers to you in that box if you can't locate them? There has to be a way your mouse can give you coodinates anywhere on your main camera view port. Then I can point my mouse anywhere, have the location & pass it on to the object. Instead of having to drag it all over the place, to get it where you want.

I gues they have 4 screen views for a reason.

ITs great, learning Vue together! :)  Yes, there certainly is lots to learn! :)

I learned how to add new layers tonight & move objects from the first layer to the second. :)

Take care cmc!
