Toolbar
I have a question that may just be a mac/win issue, but i figured id ask. In the videos, a mac is obviously used. However, on the top of the interface, just above the viewport, he seems to have a tool bar that i cant seem to find in the win version. The toolbar allows him to flip between views, xray mode, as well as having several sliders. Is this a mac only item, or is it something you can turn on in the PC version as well? The xray mode toggle was the main thing i was interested in, but the presence of the toolbar in the videos and not my version has me confused.
Re: Toolbar
thanks for the question. You are noticing a difference between the MAC/PC version.
You can get similar toolbars to appear in the windows version by going to the View > Toolbars menu.
When you open SKP for the first time, it loads with the default 'Getting Started' toolbar. You can uncheck that item from the View > Toolbars menu. And then turn on the following toolbars:
Large Tool Set
Face Style
Layers
Sections
Shadows
Standard
That should get you to where you've got the same, if not more, options above your viewport as I have on my MAC. Keep in mind that you can drag and drop the various toolbars around on your screen to put them where you want them.
