General UI and Workflow Suggestions
Steve:
raxx: I've been looking for a way to intercept the Alt key when the menu has the focus. I've tried using WM_SETFOCUS, WM_KILLFOCUS, WM_SYSKEYDOWN and WM_SYSKEYUP messages but haven't found a way yet.
Raxx:
Ok, I don't think it's too big of a deal (not to lose time over anyway). It's just that oftentimes when I'm in "the zone" modeling, I arc rotate a lot, and sometimes I press Alt but change my mind before following through with the view rotation. This disruption of "the zone" is my primary concern, since I take 3D modeling seriously when I get into it.
Steve:
SetWindowsHookEx() is the key - I should have this working cleanly once I've learned a bit more. I Feel The Power! I CAN CONTROL THE WORLD!

well, you were already pretty much the greatest programmer on earth, so i guess it was only a matter of time before this happened... still, if your political manifesto is as neatly coded as your animation software, then the world is in good hands! :D
Steve:
A quick note then I have to run - I've uploaded build 1088 dated April 23, 2014: http://www.anim8or.com/download/preview/files/animcl1088.zip It fixes the Alt problem (but you can't use Alt to access the menu anymore) and a bunch of other minor things. I'll post more details when I get a chance.
