>circular sliders are an aberration in computer interfaces. >these are often used in 3D apps [and have now seeped thru >into 2D stuff]. they are hell to use. and imh[&g]o dumb. I can see a use for them in my own app...The drop shadow filter would benefit greatly from a circular slider. Since that thing is moved in 2 dimensions normally, that would be a big help. First thing I thought when I saw it. I admit that they absolutely stink in the way they have been implemented for most 3D apps. I can feel a mallet being polished for possible application regardless. :) What a GUInome. After malleting, a Gooeynome. :) Rc
