Alice on Windows 95
Rendering Windows
This is a typical Alice rendering window. You can have as many of
these rendering windows as you like, each being fed from a different
"camera" into your 3D scene.
This render window has simple navigation controls for moving the
camera in an "architectural" style. The beta version of Alice, coming
soon, will feature a variety of canned navigation styles, available through
widget controls like this, through Alice scripting code, or through
mouse gestures made directly into the scene.
The Scripting Tool
This is the Alice Scripting Tool. The pane on the left shows the
tree of objects and the tabbed area to the right shows places where you can type Alice commands, edit the colors of objects, run demos, etc. The pulldown menus allow you to create cameras, lights, load objects from the Alice Gallery.
The online help contains a full reference manual for the entire system.
The Undo button provides full multi-level undo to make "what-if?"
exploration risk-free.
