Suggested Improvements/Corrections

I really like AC3D and I am looking forward to the new release.

There a couple of things I would like to see improved.

Alot of the models I get are not centered and do not have the correct scaling. I have been using the "MoveTo" to center the object. Then I scale but the scale does not use X,Y,Z = 0,0,0 as the origin of the scale. So when then model is scaled, the 0 points are lost.

Also after I have scaled the model, the resolution in the upper left hand corner is too course to recenter the object. It would be nice to be able to increase the resolution on those numbers. Now that the model has been scaled, now when I zoom into the model, it will disappear. I am assuming there is some "fixed" minimum distance where you cut off viewing the model? The distance should be set by the user or scaled from the size of the model.

Now this one is a "love to have" but would require some work. It would be nice to export the model as a call list that could be compiled. I use Deep Exploration for this but it would be nice if I could do it from AC3D.

Still a nice app and it really helps me with my job.

Thanks
