Control Presets for Other 3D Software
The first thing you want to do when you get into a new 3D app, is learn to move around. It's the thing you actually do the most.
I feel like every time I go into a new 3D package every one is always trying to make you conform to their new controle system... I think that you should have the ability to manuver with the same controles from your most familiar package.
Cinema 4d
Maya
Max
BlenderBlender actually has this feature, and I always choose Maya controles...
Back when before it was Autodesk Maya and it was still…
17 votesGreat suggestion! We definitely want to be aware of users coming from other packages and making sure everyone is comfortable. :)

Multiple View WIndows
It will be helpful to have different view panel layout on screen while creating file- top/front/3D view together
11 votesWork for multiple view windows hasn’t begun and is still in review. While we understand the value of multiple viewports we have a good bit of work to do on improving the one viewport we currently have. We’re focusing on the current composition, bookmark and render experience for this year but will probably start looking into multiple cameras and viewports more next year.

Adding texture or images, like wood to the grounds plane.
Adding an option to the grounds plane property where you can add textures like wood or cement onto the grounds plane. It's helpful when rendering something that needs a surface as a background. And being able to change angles and still make the object look like its sitting on the same surface.
10 votesWe can add something that would project across the entire ground plane. In the mean time you can add a plane object and then place an image onto that and change it’s full material properties.

Wider scrollbars
Maybe I'm a little shortsighted, but I think it would be great if the scroll bars were a few pixels wider throughout the interface.
4 votesThanks for the suggestion! We’ll definitely be keeping an eye on the UI elements and adjusting.

Improve Decal UI
adding decal is easy, resizing it is difficult. Why the hell does the size say "1,800%"? 1 point 8 percent? When iI drag the slider it ads TINY increments so it takes forever to enlarge the decal. :-(
3 votesThank you for the feedback! We definitely plan to enhance the Decal workflow, interface and experience.

Title Bar File Name
UI:
On macOS, we should be able to ⌘-click on the file's name in the title bar to reveal its path.

Allow Accuracy of Property Values to Three (3) Decimal Places
Currently the Property Values only adjust to 1 decimal place (Ex: 1.2).
But that is way to rough. Three decimal places (Ex: 1.259) would allow for fine changes to settings.3 votes -
dragging pics from desktop
When dragging a pic from the Finder, for example, PF could ask the user how to use the image. The current version just uses it as background image and that's that. What if I want to use it as texture for an object?
3 votesGreat suggestion, something we’ve thought about as well. We’d like to make it contextual so where you drop it has input on what happens as well.

Shortcuts window
A pop-up window you can activate by views (that you can pin on top) that has the shortcuts listed. Makes it easier rather than having to hover over the tools each time. Will save me having various bits of paper and guides all over the place :)
3 votesThanks for the suggestion! This is something we’ve been thinking about as well. :) When you say “pin on top” can you describe what you mean?

Switch canvas orientation with a single button
As per photoshop you can swap the canvas orientation with a single arrow button ( between W and H )and not have to retype measurments.
2 votesCurious how often you use this. Is it just to quickly get to landscape/portrait or do you often want the exact same resolution just oriented differently? Photoshop definitely does a lot more image setup, so not sure how important this will be in Dimension for the larger crowd, but curious to hear peoples thoughts!

More camera options
It would be nice to have a set of camera options to take the best out of Felix. I've already left some comments around giving some ideas to what it could be possible to do but I'm going to leave a Feature Request with everything in place and explained.
Camera should have these basic navigation tools controlled by Mouse/Keyboard and Menu:
- Move Up and Down; (Shift/Ctrl+W/S or PageUp/PageDown)
- Move Left and Right; (A/D)
- Move Forward and Backwards; (W/S)- Yaw; (Mouse Drag)
- Pitch; (Mouse Drag)
- Roll; (Q/E)This would allow to easily position the camera…
2 votesThanks for the great write-up! We’ve considered a ‘game-style’ mode of navigation using WASD/QE keys. It’s an interesting approach that has been fun for me in some game engines and other platforms. We do have all of these controls available, but seems like your request here is really to have a custom keybind and control scheme for the movement.
We do have a Focal Length/FoV control in the Camera settings when you select the scene. Aperature/Depth of Field/F-Stop is coming soon!
Exposure Time/Motion Blur is not on the list right now, but definitely something we’re keeping in mind.
