    That would not be helpful.
    Think about what would happen if you would have to rerender a small part of it in half a year.

    In the end there is baking for such scenarios because it was not exactly like that anyway, but the closer to the original the better :).

    Upgrade Windows 7 to Windows 10

    Actually you can search for custom date ranges...
    1.) Search for what you want (for instance *.* if it needs to be everything)


    2.) Go to the search options. Then select one of the default ranges like "last week".


    3.) After that click on the blue info in the search bar (like "change date: this week").


    4.) Select the range you want in the date selector. Drag your mouse or hold shift and select start and end afterwards.

    Airplane Mode > This can be useful if you are not sure about a software and if it will transfer unwanted data to the internet for instance. But yes, it is less interesting for a desktop than for a laptop or tablet.

    There are a couple... some might not be useful for you, others are pretty much to everybody if you ask me:

    - "Virtual desktops" for different working styles with different programs and of cause you can reaccess stuff very easily with the timeline feature (if activated).
    => press and hold windows + tab to see the timeline and the menu to create other desktops.

    - for me personally one of the best things is of cause the Mixed Reality Center which enables VR for Windows natively if you own such a headset.
    => if you connect a Mixed Reality Headset you can use VR in the easiest way possible... it just gets started and you are in the VR-Windows home without even one click. Of cause you need to have a MXR headset for that and not everybody like VR, but for me it is very nice.

    - the action center is pretty nice too... it is just more advanced then anything of that kind we had before.
    => button next to the clock on the lower right of the screen which is intelligent too... for instance any alerts/toast message are suspended if you are for instance in a game, etc.

    - Snap assist is great to move windows around and snap them next to each other in predefined sizes...
    => press Windows-Button and the Arrow keys to reposition a window in a specific place... especially useful for twin-program use on a single screen system or multiple window position on multiple screen systems. You can do that with the mouse too (move the window with the mouse to different borders of your screen... but I am more of the keyboard guy there...)

    - Microsoft Store and UWP apps....
    => this one isn't extremly used by most people, but the sandbox all the UWP apps/store apps are in (very secure) and the clean uninstalling and reinstalling (no UWP app will alter the registery or leave anything behind on your computer after uninstalling) is very nice and pretty secure.

    - Clipboard / Copy&Paste-feature with a timeline... so you can copy and access not only one thing but several and reaccess copied stuff again later.
    => press Windows + V.

    - If you are gaming: Many games are no longer supporting Windows 7 partly for DirectX 12 and partly for DVR reasons.

    - a new snipping tool built in with more features is on the way.. pretty nice one too.

    And there are a lot of other smaller changes... some are pretty great (explorer allows to set up very often used settings like visual extensions and hidden files very quickly and not in a very long menu, even so that one is still there), some are not (settings menu... for now I still often prefer the old system menu and some things have to be switch there anyway... but if you are not that experienced you can not do harm to you computer with the settings menu, so it is maybe a plus there for inexperienced users...)

    New Question

    in Work In Progress / Sweatbox

    Posted · Edited by Fuchur
    Sorry, did not read your edit message.

    It works for me... are you using the turn tool or the move tool in the camera view with shift pressed or are you just using shift/ctrl?
    Shift and CTRL only will be used to select objects/models.

    Easiest way is to go to the camera view, press shift and use the middle mouse button to turn the camera or press ctrl and use the middle button to move the camera.

    Best regards

    You really do not need it... if you want to use the Tiles (which are nice if they are Life tiles with additional fast to access data)  just right-click on them and get rid of them one after another... after that it is close to W7 again.

    But you will start to like it... W7 is nice, but there are a couple of nice features in W10 too... it depends. I would not go back again after I have set W10 the way I wanted it. You will get acustomed after a while... ;).

    The only thing that really is bad is the search... it really is worse then before.

    Quick note about upgrading older hardware. Some of it might not be compatible with windows 10. 

    That laptop I mentioned has an older AMD graphics card that Win10 simply won't detect so have to use the intel onboard graphics and the same goes for the bluetooth card. Even after installing drivers in compatibility mode windows 10 doesn't want to know.

    Interesting... which GPU are you running there? Is it still supported by AMD?

    Yes, it might be possible, but that has another reason.

    MediaQueries are not done explicitly for one device or one resolution and configuration.
    And with all the different devices out there it is normal to have adaptic steps like that which just have to be done at some resolution especially if users are using different scaling, different text size in windows and stuff like that (which can not be detected very easily and even if it would be a lot more trouble to add them all in).

    It is close to unlikely to make it happen for any resolution and any device available at any scaling that it is always perfect, especially since the makes of the forum do not know how many navigation points are in there... that means the moment somebody adds another functionality, all the media queries are obsolety again and would have to be revised.
    In general it is just good practise to add a lot of "safety space" to the query so that it works for most resolutions instead of being broken for some resolutions and being perfect for others.

    If you want to read more about it, search for CSS3 & MediaQueries & Responsive and Adaptive steps and so on the internet.
    I am not in charge of the forum and the CSS used here, but that is very likely the reason why it is doing that "earlier", even so it would not have to be done.
    Do make it perfect for any resolution would add a hell lot of code and work to the whole process. You can do it of cause, but it is much more trouble and most often just not worth it because a day later it has to be changed for another resolution again.

    Why is faster slower?

    How hot is your CPU/GPU/Mainboard?

    It might be that at a higher clock speed some other component on your computer is getting hotter and that might be bad for it.
    (only guessing here of cause)

    You could test it by opening your case and trying it again.

    Bad Christmas Cards

    Krampus is a typical thing from Austria...
    it is more or less the devil who is getting the children who were naughty...

    Germany has "Knecht Rubrecht" for instance, but that one is "just" hitting them if they were naughty with a rod... so it is getting a lot less comon ;).

    Hello everybody,

    many already know that little tradition of us and I did not want to forget to post it here.
    In Germany it is tradition to have a small christmas / advent calendar were you can open one small door every day and get for instance some sweets or a small gift every day till christmas in December.
    3We (the company I work for) has one too – we show on funny, thoughtful or just nice commercial from all over the world every day in that.
    Another day and another door will be available :).

    And as always all the art work has been created with Animation:Master:

    3We Adventskalender 2019

    Hope you like it and let me know what you think :).

    Best regards and of cause a nice 1. Advent to everybody
