One thing I have hated about S3D is that you can only run one instance of it at a time.
Now that's not an issue at home as I have several systems and can run them side by side.
On the road? It's nearly a worthless tool to me.
I work to fast for S3D to ever keep up.
I also find S3D is a very limiting, time consuming Tool.
For the basic stuff if you have hours to spend? It's a very good Tool.
That said if you use it and have a question?
Let me know and I'll try to assist you.

I've only used it to look at things thus far, and I do not anticipate ~having~ to use it for the 3d parts. I do see how the one instance would be very limiting, but if I open a file, click on something in the window to populate the right-hand pane, and then Click on File - Open, and choose a different file, I can get several windows open. Are you referring to opening the same file twice, so that you don't have to scroll from top-to-bottom and back again if editing something? I've not tried that. What the program needs then is either that ability, or a way to define a "view" of the window, and then maybe even be able to assign a hot key to them...

So, was it the having to populate the window, or can you define "views" with the app? I hadn't seen that anywhere in there... I'm not on a "good" computer right now, so I can't look... dang nematodes. btw, I'm the cookie monster... ~Cookie~!!! My eyes look just like his too!

You can't open the same file twice but that's not what I wanted to do.
I can now open multiple files and do what I want to do.
Working on a few files? I can now export things from one and import to another with out closing down all the time.

Most of the time I work in 010
There are times when S3D is the faster way IF you can have the multiple windows.
Migaloo is one of those times as I'm not real intimate with the files involved.

btw, the way S3d seems to do with files when you first "open" them, it's like you've just queued them up, but not really "opened" them until you actually ask for the data, like "opening" a database, but it just sits there until you query. The port has been opened, but not used - "Beam me up, Scotty!... Scotty?" So when you try to open another file, it's like S3d thinks that you haven't opened one yet, so doesn't open a new window.
Another blatant case of anthropomorphization! Arrest that evil man!
