Uhh, I can't get Knobman to fit into an eeepc window.
The rendering part on the right of the screen isn't there...

Not a big one, I started using it on my desktop, but was kinda think it was a bummer not to be able to run it on the road with the eeepc. (701 edition)

I always thought that netbooks should have one of those "virtual desktop" utilities installed by default. the ones where your screen is a view onto a bigger desktop and you scroll around by moving the mouse to the side of the screen.

maybe you could try a utility like that ?

Running XP on my eee 701, I can do that just by increasing the screen resolution in the Display Properties control panel. I prefer to use Astray Plus though, which resamples a higher-resolution screen onto the actual display. Although, having tried one of the 8.9" eee's Im definitely considering upgrading to one of them at some point.

No I haven't.
But my eyes are wide open now since you've pointed it out to me Whyterabbit.

G200kg - thanks for the KnobMan update.

Many thanks for this update and this tool. So small in bytes and so great in results.

hi,

I have noticed that specular light (on sphere or other) was rotating with the object.

Tell me if i am wrong but specular is a lightning effect and should not move with the object ?

Maybe in some case it could be interesting.
So it would be great to have choice.

brok landers · Post by **brok landers** » Fri Nov 21, 2008 11:31 pm

everything within the shape section belongs to the shape itself, thus, if the shape is rotated, all these parameters within the shape section are rotated ...
if you want to put independent, non-rotating lighning fx on a shape, use the ones on the right side ...

Yes, but

the specular light in lighting effects section is not functionning in the same way :

- no specular width

- lightdir behavior is different : light cannot be placed in center of sphere or cross the sphere in the center.
