THIS IS MY LIST OF ENHANCEMENTS THAT I STRONGLY FEEL WOULD GREATLY SPEED PRODUCTIVITY AND REDUCE REPETITIVE CLICKS IN iCLONE(if any of these suggestions would conflict with other productivity issues in iClone at least make these suggestions a user selectable Preference.

In the Scene Manager right clicking on an asset should bring up a context window.

Right clicking on preview/camera box should bring up a context window.

All Transform Tools should be able to select any another object while in use, not just exclusive to the Selection Tool.

Independent preview and output resolutions.

Please bring back the pan hand in the menu scroll window.

The window pane divider in Scene Manager, Content Menu, ect. should divide the panes evenly and when the user adjusts it, the divider should remember the user defined location universally, or by project, but never reset to default location when simply switching menus or projects, unless predefined by the project. All window pane dividers for that matter should do this.

Sky Tool props i.e. Moon, Sun, ect. should be selectable with Selection Tool, not just exclusive to selection from the Scene Manager. For that matter, all asset should be selectable with the Selection Tool, with right click context menus .i.e cameras.

When opening the Track Editor the Preview Window should not re-size the screen real estate to a smaller pane size along the boarders, but maintain it's maximum screen real estate size.

When adjusting Avatar Proportion the avatar should default to a T-pose/A-pose but retain all animation data and reload it after proportion adjustments.

Floating menus such Body, Facial, Collision Shape menus ect. should retain user input parameters when the menu is closed and reopened, especially for the same character. And you shouldn't have to close these menus to select any other tools.

Basically the preview windows should maintain full screen real estate at all times, including when pnp is docked & when rotating the tablet to portrait mode.

The ability to select objects from within PnP, also allow highest render quality in PnP, as it is generally used to view the scene from the camera view which essentially is the final render view setup.  In it's current state I don't really see a beneficial useful enhancement for it's existence.

I hope the next update to 3DXhange will allow us to:

1) save large 3DX projects at stages while we are working on them, because it's too much work and time wasted during system crashes, power losses and other various unforeseeable disasters when we have to start over from scratch again. 

2) rename nodes and sub-nodes (Edit: Found this feature in 3DX5 already YAY!!!) ... so I'd like to replace this request, with a suggestion for editing of sound tracks loaded into the scene for BG music and SFX... nothing complex... just trimming, accelerating and slower-motion sound track would be very helpful. 

3) select items that all have the same material and load the material in one-click, instead of needing to load the same material 700 times for a 700 piece asset. 

4) rearrange the modify menu's so they are in a more logical order of which ones need to be done first during character conversion. 

5) offer a bone, skeleton and face rigging kit (with or without weight mapping), so we can turn un-rigged obj meshes of people, buildings and other props into cool toon avatars that need only 2 to 20 bones...

6) a morph-stretch-shrink-bend tool for bones would be terrificly handy, versatile and fun too

I've made this point elsewhere.  CHARACTERS NEED TO GROW AND EVOLVE WITH THE PROGRAM.  Otherwise, yes, our character investments become useless.

MERGE these tools into a fully integrated Suite, ala Adobe Creative Cloud:

ICLONE, DAZ STUDIO, SUBSTANCE PAINTER, MARVELOUS DESIGNER, BLENDER CYCLES.

Think you can get that to me in a week?  

No doubt mentioned before but the ability to "Mirror" (Flip Horizontal and/or Vertical) a prop would be a useful option, and the same would apply for animations.

Crucial.

"SPRING" working on the iClone 6 characters !!!

Thank you for all your excellent feedback since the release of iClone 6.

So we can better track your feedback, please can you now post all wishful feature requests in the main iClone Wishful Features forum below.

Thanks.
