Vue four-window workspace is nice, but overall, the program lacks Bryce's playful controls and tiny Nano-preview window. If you're a Bryce user, here's how to regain some of that Bryce feel... TIP 1: To simulate Bryce's nano-preview window in Vue, right click on the Render button, select "render to screen" and set the preview window setting to 120 x 75 or whatever small size you need. To preview graphics, you still have to hit that render button, but it's as faster than Bryce's nano-preview which constantly uses system resources. TIP 2: Try prettying up Vue's bland interface with a WindowBlinds skin -- something you can't do with Bryce. This is a shell that slips over your Windows interface without using up system resources. Check it out: www.windowblinds.com , or for a bunch of skins visit http://skinz.org . I recommend the WinAqua skin which mimics Mac OS X (if it's still there). Another other ideas to smooth the transition? Vue isn't difficult to learn, but there ways to make it feel remotely like Bryce.
