Bryce 8 Workflow Proposal 1

Made with Bryce

Created by rashadcarter1

Follow the discussion here: http://forum.daz3d.com/viewtopic.php?p=3233429#3233429 This is step 1 of a 2 step quick mock up of a potential workflow upgrade for Bryce 8 if there ever will be one. This is a workflow proposal, not a graphical one as such. I have several ideas for the look of it but before that the workflow must be identified. A couple of ideals at work here: 1. Borrowed from TrueSpace, all palettes are now dockable, and can be moved around at will. 2. To reduce mouse clicks, the Create, Edit and Sky/ Fog palettes are no longer layered on top of one another. Further, the Animation controls are no longer hidden behind the object management tools at the bottom right of the screen. 3. A new concept of a Shortcut Palette is introduced. The shortcut palette should easily allow one click access to menus that would otherwise remain hidden behind several mouse clicks within the application. The goal is to make as many items as possible accessible from the main viewport. Here are the definitions of the various shortcuts from left to right... Master (New Feature) Works just like Scene in Carrara and Daz Studio. A Single place you can go to see a listing of all of your objects. You can select objects here as well for editing. Render One click access to the Render Options Obp Loads Object Presets with one click. Save Saves Object Presets with one click. Imp / Exp Imports and Exports mesh objects Mat One click access to the Material Lab Def (New Feature) One click access to a newly proposed Deformer Lab. Inst Easy access to the Instance Lab Light Light Lab Access. TA One click access to TA controls Ani access to Animation Lab or Advanced Motion Lab Part (New Feature) Access to a real Particle Lab Path (New Feature) access to a Path Creator. Ribbons are created with easy to modify nodes for shaping. These Paths can be converted into solid geometry called Ribbons and used for bows and the like Hier (New Feature) access to a master Hierarchy manager. See all hierarchies clearly and edit them neatly. Sky Load Sky preset with one click Save Save Sky Preset with one click Sun instant access to Sun controls in Sky Lab Cld instant access to Stratus and Cumulus Clouds in the Sky Lab Atm instant access to the Atmosphere area of the Skylab IBL instant access to the IBL area of the Light Lab The labs are all still located in their original places, they are just accessed more easily with shortcuts. Feedback is most appreciated. Thanks for your time.
