Hi Maurice,

Thanks for your interest,

> 1) pivot center of rotation

I am thinking on this and see how can I implement some way of do it. It may be not as you expected, I am looking at moment for the easiest / useful way of have it working. I will let you know when I got it working.


> 2) show/hide enclosures

I discuss with Cirilo some ideas that could be used for this and other proposes (eg: check if a model is a mechanical.. if it is to be used for export or not.. etc..) . Since that may need a change in/addition in the file format we didn't made nothing yet or advanced with any propose.
IMO we will not get this feature at moment, it will only be possible after get this merged in the trunk and a solution discussed and agree by the managers.

Hi Cirilo,

I'm happy you are interested in my approach to manage MCAD code.

Consider that the native conversion code of VRML in FC is done by
Coin3D, not by OCE

I'm still waiting for your comment about the queries I made for the new
