Thanks Daniel,
That would be very useful

Is there a way of either preserving the last location of the Custom Light or seeing what its current co-ordinates are? As it has such a good effect on the images I save it would be good to be able to restore its position so the lighting is the same.

Currently I roughly align a primative sphere (by ...

My DB Tree and Properties windows disappeared when I unplugged my second screen and I cant get them back.

The Reset GUI elements will probably work but as I cant select the top level DB Tree item I cant save my work before closing.

A RMB on the toolbars shows them greyed out and unticked.

Is ...

Something that I would find very useful would be to use the keyboard arrow keys to pan the current view but only in those directions, or maybe holding Ctrl down when mouse dragging a view to move only in X, Shift only in Y and Alt only in Z.

For example it would be very useful when looking for ...

I'm trying to work out if its possible to create a SF showing gradient along a single axis (say Y)

I've been experimenting with dip angles and direction but I cant seem to get the results I'm expecting by creating dip-dip directions as a SF

My cloud is I beam rail running along the Y axis, but its ...

Sorry for the delay in replying....... other things got in the way.

Yup, I reckon you've fixed it. Thank you - it makes things much easier for me to get screenshots of the labels in the correct places.

I think you have it Daniel and WargodHernandez.
Today I have a BIN file with several small clouds (~1000 points) with labels attached - selecting these is fine but on a larger cloud in the same BIN file with around 5,600,000 points the 2 labels created are unselectable with the mouse.

The object ...

That's interesting because strangely today I started a new file and the labels are selecting and moving without issue so it's not my PC after all.

My 'problematic' file has primatives and imported meshes in it, this new file just clouds and the labels are behaving so maybe it is related to file ...

Daniel,
I'm beginning to think its spacemouse related - If I start up my PC and CC without having a spacemouse connected, normal label selection and moving is back to how it should be.

No, I use a normal mouse as well Daniel. Its just I wondered that as the camera was being controlled by the spacemouse then perhaps it was affecting the 'normal' mouse clicking but I tried unplugging it and it makes no difference. I think it maybe a graphics card issue - my diagnostics show me its ...
