[Hexagon]Option for labeling viewports - Polyloop

Steve_S · 20th April 2006, 15:25

Is there an option (possibly within the preferences menu) for turning on/off the labeling of viewports: 'perspective', 'left', 'right', 'top', 'bottom'?

Patrick210 · 20th April 2006, 15:29

No, there isn't.

Thanks for your response. Much appreciated.
I find the omission of viewport labeling in Hexagon rather odd since Carrara and Amapi Pro both have that feature. I wonder why Eovia chose to not include it with this particular application?

Yes, I miss the titles myself and I like how in Carrara you can click the title and change the view from the dropdown menu.

I agree with you, Will. It's great to have the option of changing the view names but at least all 3D apps should have some sort of label in each viewport indicating what that view is.

It looks like Hex 2 is likely to have viewport labeling (not sure whether there is any kind of custom naming though). Check out the Hexagon forum over at Yahoo for Ringo's latest file upload. It's a full screen view of one of Hex 2's release candidates (RC2, I believe). Lots more to see as well, including some UV tools.

I'd paste the link in, but Firefox isn't cooperating in this just right now.

That's good news, RJ. Thanks.

Yes, I had noticed that a while ago from a screen shot as well - again Eovia listens!

Steve S,

There was a brief discussion about viewports just recently. See if your problems can relate to it in one way or the other:
