Renate,
|
|
|
|
I think that we should drop the stuff on the 2 vs. 3 button mouse and
|
|
just let interested readers find the mouse information in the
|
|
appropriate section of the IMUIG (chapter 1, I think). In the IMUIG we
|
|
assumed that users would be interacting with applications using a 3
|
|
button mouse because we assumed that these apps would all run on SGI
|
|
systems. Now we have a few apps (and more coming soon) that run on
|
|
PCs.
|
|
|
|
I think that we should still assume the three button mouse, leave it
|
|
out of the 3D section since there is nothing specific to 3D about it,
|
|
and if we do someday need to discuss a 2 button mouse, then put it in a
|
|
section that deals with "running your Indigo Magic application on a
|
|
PC..." (I can feel Pete cringing at the thought! :-) )

|
|
This file provides some information about the Beta draft of the 3D
|
|
Style Guide. It mostlyn discusses some file organization issues,
|
|
illustrations.
|
|
|
|
1) Files and folders
|
|
I've prepared the 3D Style Guide as a book (3Dstyle.book) containing
|
|
these files:
|
|
|
|
3Dintro.doc
|
|
3DstyleTOC.doc
|
|
3Dview.doc
|
|
select.doc
|
|
3Dmanip.doc
|
|
|
|
I'm also going to add an index.
|
|
|
|
The intro is almost the same as the intro of the IMUG, I've added a
|
|
section on the 3 new chapters. The first real chapter (3Dview.doc) has
|
|
a hardwired chapter number.
|
|
|
|
Note that I haven't backed up the files onto Bonnie 'cause I wasn't
|
|
sure where they would go (I'm doing a tape 3 times a week and I'm
|
|
being backed up remotely).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2) Illustrations
|
|
There are two types of pictures:
|
|
|
|
a. Frame line art, prepared by me, needs to be done more professionally
|
|
but will do the trick for now.
|
|
|
|
b. Screen shots
|
|
|
|
I've done one or two screen shots using Annotator (you need the
|
|
version on sphere to get the viewing fixtures in chapter 12)
|
|
|
|
All other screen shots were done using a set of special programs that
|
|
Mike Mohageg has. Basically, these programs show only the manipulators
|
|
for one kind of manipulation at a time; this results in clearer
|
|
pictures.
|
|
|
|
Here's a message I sent to Mike and his answer:

Yup, there still there!
|
|
|
|
titanic:/usr/tmp/forMichaelm
|
|
|
|
Then run either rotOnly, scaleOnly, or translateOnly.

I've placed the originals into the /orig directory and converted most
|
|
of the illustrations to .bw files using a Makefile
|
|
that is in the same directory as the book files; it wasn't easy to
|
|
come up with color combinations that resulted in good contrast. A
|
|
white background works well but is not possible for the scaling
|
|
pictures.
|
|
|
|
If there was a series of pictures I have at times added straigt lines
|
|
using FrameMaker drawing tools.
