Hah,now I got it,although I have read it before. So actually it's more about LMB usage. Yet, for now a little bit confusing on when to use it, since used to shortcuts.
Maybe, then, about some other things have noticed:
1) remember that draw+selecting, by holding Ctrl down and selecting and deselecting with LMB RMB and MMB ? Keep in mind I refer always about 0.97d in which it worked perfectly and I loved it By holding down the Ctrl it was possible to click with LMB or RMB or the MMB and continuously select items, leave mouse buttons and while still holding Ctrl key select or deselect by left middle or right clicking again. Now the RMB is "out of the game". Also when Ctrl is pressed and any of mouse buttons used ( MMB LMB ) you have to release Ctrl then push it again and only then mouse buttons will affect the selecting again. In other words : push Ctrl and hold it down, click with LMB/RMB/MMB and drag while pressing the mouse button ( don't let it go until select everything want ) then let mouse button but don't let Ctrl (pressed all the time  ) and then you are able to click with mouse button and continue selecting. All that in 0.97d. Now, when selected something and released mouse buttons  (only, Ctrl still pressed ) then, if want to continue selecting by pressing mouse button again you can't proceed , you have to release Ctrl first and press it down again, only then start clicking with mouse buttons.

2) the points,edges,faces buttons under coordinates and x,y,z, buttons. The p/e/f now are enabled all together, while in the old version only one item was every time. When there was a need to change say from points to faces only faces ( g shortcut ) could be enabled and the points were disabled automatically. Now we have to enable faces ( once pressing ) and to disable ( twice pressing ) points ( of course all that when points not needed ). I just wander if there will be the need for all enabled . Wont it be kind of confusing ? All that because it was kinda safe to manipulate one item every time and not to be afraid of to mess it up. Although it's kind of total freedom and it needs just to get used to it and since these implementations are some new things , additional possibilities, while the old ones wont be taken down, then I guess it's alright. Maybe others can give their opinion about it ?

That's about new things. There're some old little things like for example world coordinates and object coordinates , where LMB and RMB affect the opposite axes, in y- axis ( up and down movement with LMB ) with moving ( which is the " problematic", rotate is good ) tool the LMB acts in z-coordinates while the RMB which should affect in z-coordinates does it in y-axis. Also the MMB do exact the same with LMB, maybe there's a way to " release" it ( MMB ) since it does nothing different ? And object coordinates has the same affect with the world coordinates , even after rotating object's pivot .

That's for now.

Come on guys! It's like in the anekdot: 3 lazzy guys were thinking "how freekin amazing would it be, if there were buttons for all their wishes, so there won't be needed to do anything. Just push a button! And then one of them said : " Yeah !!! But who gonna push those buttons !!! " There's already the ctrl+R shortcut. Why inventing something new, since there can appear a problem ( what about standart windows alt for menu use)?  And this ctrl+shift usage : I find it very easy, I use it all the time. 2 keys is not that big problem . The same about holding the ctrl while selecting: very practical and easy, don't think there's a need to make it standard way of selection ( ala wing3d , without holding ctrl ). Anim8or need tools. A lot of what has been done doesn't need to be fixed, I think it is in it's final, best form.

Hello Anim8or Community !!! ( Cool Robins )) I know nothing about programming, but as you may know : one word of text may need more than 5 lines of code.  ( Yea, I'm gonna use them all the time )) In my tiny opinion, first, Anim8or should leave behind all off its bugs, glitches and systematic crashes, that still occur in exesting components and only then to go further. So Anim8or will be "clear", stable 100%( as a program it is any way, I mean more for its tools) and "approved" ( again it is any way such, but you know what I mean ) , and then, without nightmares visiting us at night , we can add something new. Although Steve ( he's back , banzai ) may think differently and he has lot of new thinks in his mind (or his computer, physically).

Funny, speed of ART is not №1 in wish list any more  ( well, 1 and a half year since then  )

Cool ! How did you insert the cubes, copies or ( more sure about ) 1 by 1 ? And how did you set them on a circle ?
And I think two of them ( see screenshot ) have the same phase ( move up/down together ). And I think that's because the settings you added are for one less cube. So if you remove one of them ( from the circle ), maybe then it would match.

And yeah, scripting is power ! Still can't find time to start learning it.  

Wow  more than a year and I did ...nothin' !!! 
 I wanted all this time to start some practice by adding day by day some models, not too ( or at all  ) complicated but "correct" though. Well, still nothing to submit, but I'll try to start adding ...anything !

P.S.: Eh, difficult days ... for a long time now. And more difficult are on the way 

Hmm, what bugs exactly ?

And cooldude234, will it have the ability to render scenes from anim8or with physics, like in cre8or, or it will be just for making games ?

Emm, as I said before I know nothing about this stuff, but, have you the core finished already so you're going for details now 

Weh, dwsel thanks for the research !  But not so a big deal after all. I just thought it could be pretty easy to implement. But thanks again.
Neirao, no problem at all ! You did already the biggest part.  It was just a thought , for a perfection.     Thanks for this papagal
