Hi Antoni, hello all,

Is it possible to hide the menu's (attractor and view) ?

In one word, no. In 0.3, you'll be able to resize the view window, and zoom the attractor out so overlapping interface components won't be an issue anymore. I will, at some point, add a keyboard shortcut to show/hide every palette on screen, i.e. like the TAB key in Adobe software.


When i'm playing with the program I start out in 800x600 for a good fractal. Then I save the attractor and set up a bigger screen (1600x1200 or 2400x1800). (re-scaling in the view window is not working, it let me set new size but when I click on the height to set this, it changes back to old size)

It does indeed, the Width and Height combo boxes were left in the view palette because they indicate the current view size, and also because they look nice.


After this action I load my attractor and the position from where I saved it, is not saved with the attractor, so I must do some reposition and rotating work before the final render.

At this point the menu's are a real pain in the ......... So is there a way to deal with this ??

I rarely render very large pictures (why do people do so? Is it for printing purpose?), when I do, I scale down the attractor and shift it to the top-left corner of the view, I try to match the original angle as close as I can, then I press F6. Obviously, this method only works when you render full attractors, not close-ups.
