Okay, I just got Bryce5 home and out of the box. Half of the pdf manual has printed and I'm reading on page 19... It says 'to create a new document: 1. Choose File menu > New. Okay, how do I get "File" to come up? -T.Mike

move the curser to the top of the window and a regular menu should drop down.

Quote: "Renderosity rocks!" Definately it does. I love it. :) And - I was wondering where the tool bar is, too. Took me long time to find it until I accidently moved the mouse to the top of the window. g

Since Bryce is one of those applications ported over from the mac, it doesn't follow a lot of windows regular commands... so where in Windows you would alt f o to open a file, in Bryce you would do, Control O.... Just one of those things... It's probably why the Windows version of Bryce 5 renders slower too.. :)

But at least the Windows convention of alt to open a menu could be respected. It's not as if alt F was reserved for anything else. Nor is it much programming effort to put it in.

I Know what you mean Phantast, know what you mean... :) More importantly, let's see when they fix the rendering problem...
