Re Sidebars - still to big for my taste as well. Would it be possible to allow the user to scale the sidebars as small as one likes, even if such creates a cropped sidebar once extents are reached? Essentially such would allow any amount of “space” customization. I used to do this with floating windows, etc.
When I try to define the palette to show at the top, whether it is a predefined or custom I created, all I get is the Standard, and it says “No Value” in the pref pane. Am I missing something again?
fwiw, rhino for mac is a full screen app now… ctrl-cmmd-F or the double arrows at the top-right of the window (and now via the view menu)
the left sidebar can scale as small (2 icons wide) if you use the heads-up command dialog as opposed to the sidebar command line…
there are also two new commands- ToggleRightSidebar and ToggleLeftSidebar which you may consider assigning to a screen edge. (Preferences-> Mouse-> Screen Edge)… or a mouse button or keystroke.
the layout i’ve been going with uses the screen edge macro for the right sidebar, full screen, skinny left sidebar, & ToggleOsnapPanelUnderCursor as a 3finger swipe… dunno… it’s pretty sweet on the 15" mbp… great use of space imo… (my desktop setup is a little different since i have larger displays for it but it’s a 1,1 macPro which is stuck on lion… it’s days are numbered with rhino moreso now than ever )
i guess it’s too early to really document some of this hide/unhide options but they’re worth playing around with and giving some feedback on… personally, i hope these mac specific toggle commands make it through to the final version as well as the option for the heads-up command dialogs.
