It's not a big deal, I just stumbled uppon it while trying to rename an existing object. I guess it's all about what we are used to... some will use F2, some a context menu and some the two single clicks.

EDIT: I saw you already committed it - thanks a lot, it works fine :)

When I just start the AgeCreator, it does something with the speed or acceleration of my mouse cursor; it's speed is drastically increased.
This behavior stays even after closing the program. System-wide.

I know this is pre-pre-alpha, but if you could find out what causes this effect (maybe a setting of Qt?) it would be fine it you could disable this, because it's very annoying to end up with a (in my case) nearly unusable mouse.

Weird, I do not experience that... instead, I get graphics glitches in the main window, and dock widgets behaving weird. I think that is caused by this new 2D view - the dock widgets take the full space of the main window, and the 2D view does the rendering somewhere where it should not :lol:

Which OS are you using, Tach? I am using Kubuntu 9.10 with Qt 4.5.2.

Diafero, your issue sounds like a driver problem. Both the 3D and 2D views are rendered with OpenGL. You may be having issues with multiple GL contexts being used. What's your graphics card, and are you using open-source or vendor driver?

Tachzusamm, I have no idea what could cause that O_O. I don't touch mouse settings at all, and Qt shouldn't mess with them either... I'm tempted to blame yours on drivers too, but I have no real reason why, just a hunch.

I will wait till rendering is enabled again (now that the fix is in libHSPlasma) and if the issue persists, I will create a bug report ;-)

I have a NVidia GeForce 8500 and I'm using the binary vendor drivers in version 185.18.36. I already had Uru running twice at the same time with compiz enabled and then hitting alt-tab, in which case I see both Uru windows being rendered at the same time... yes, it is laggy, but it worked. I doubt two OpenGL contexts should be a problem.

R68 *should* give you enabled rendering in 2D and 3D.
