Blender is on the right way by adding some icons to its UI, but I am not ready for blender and blender is not yet ready for me. Where is the render button? How to navigate the camera? E.g. I switched to the render camera and a weird black two arrowed gizmo appeared, that does not give me any help how to move my camera view. Imported an obj-file and tried to load textures for it - impossible by just guessing the UI. These are the first things I've tried and failed. Sorry, Blender is still a Nerd-Only app. Why can't they just do it as other apps do it? I was hoping 2.80 could be usable for me, but no it isn't.

Hi Timberwolf

Navigation currently is still partially the same the new UI is more like other software than it has ever been before. But have to under it is still in Alpha stage no where near ready for a production environment. There are several tutorials and feature video on YouTube I would search for CGMasters, CG Geek, Jayanam to name a few who have done some tutorials for the new version. I know even me who is a long time Blender user will have to relearn a few things. I think if you watch and give it a real chance you will find the improvements will benefit new users like yourself

Thx for answer. :-) So, what is it? Am I just not enough of a Blender user, to just simply rotate a camera, or is this an issue, that comes with the beta?
