A complete UI overhaul of Rhino would be a much welcomed move

hi Steve,

I hope you can put some effort in some of the friction I outlined here:

@JohnM provided some answers eventually, but they were not encouraging that your team is looking into solving these problems, he rather explained to me why all these limitations exist.

Not surprised here, that’s John’s style: he always explains why things can’t change. Just like he did 2 years earlier when Rhino’s RUI files wherenot working well with Dropbox: Help: Saving toolbar on dropbox causes error message - #8 by gustojunk

(I do keep tabs of you all, John included!)

…Another major problem of workspaces IMO is the poor support or multiple monitors, and more importantly, changing monitor situations (sometimes you are in a laptop standalone, sometimes you have an external monitor, sometimes you have 2 external monitors…)

Yet another major problem is shared toolbars/workspaces among users in a team. I want to be able to assign certain toolbars to be owned/managed by a single user and others should be able to see it updating in their worspaces. This is basically our in-company version of the same problem we have when you update toolbars in a new WIP build. We need to see those changes live, not having to run the super destructive Toolbar reset.

And tabs visibility and order should also be saved in someone’s workspace file/properties. So often I go to look for my NamedViews tab, or my BoxEdit tab and it’s not there anymore.

Thanks for listening!

Gustavo
