  Render Window: Selection Lasso (Message 1 to 3 of 3)

Greetings.

My suggestion to all POV-Ray developers: the render window should be 
featuring a selection lasso rather than the conventional selection 
rectangle. That would make it possible to limit a new selection rendering to 
only the areas really needed, while the conventional selection rectangle 
might very often contain areas not desired to render again (as rendering 
unimportant areas slows down unneccessarily).

Sincerely,

Sven

This is the wrong group for this suggestion.  This group is for discussion 
of the POV-Ray source code, not the features of POV-Ray and not for making 
feature suggestions.  Questions and feature requests about using POV-Ray 
should be asked/made in either povray.general or povray.newusers.

     Thorsten, POV-Team

Thanks, Thorsten,

I am starting this topic there. Is it possible for you to delete this thread 
here (in this sub group)?

Sincerely,

Sven
