I want to reorder some of the models in my scene tree, but I only seem to be allowed to drop the model into another folder and not get it to be listed after another folder. This is frustrating. Am I missing something obvious?

Nope, you're not missing anything. While it is technically possible to drag the model up and down without ending up in another folder, you have to move the mouse such a minute amount to get it to work, that in practice it is nearly impossible.

It's a shame, because it would be a great feature if it worked consistently. Hopefully for Keyshot 7??

Unfortunately, this is true of almost all sliders as well.  It would be great to have some very precise and minute movement for stuff like decal placement and the like.  Numerical entry is very tiring and time consuming.

As far as the sliders go, you can always enter a number, hit enter, and then this entered value becomes the new mid-point. This will then allow for very controlled adjustments of values using the slider.

Hi Thomas, I'm not sure what you mean by this.
Can you give an example I could try to see this work?

Take a look at the scale slider. The default value is 1, the range is 0 - 2. I typed in 0.1. Notice how this is now the mid value. The range of this adjusted range is 0 - 0.2.

Woah, I had never noticed that! Thanks

It would be very helpful if the tooltip of the slider will bring a hint for the entire value range. 'Cause not every slider will jump in the middle. E.g the blurr slider of the HDRI editor (min. 0 max 8) as well if values can be defined in negative like the depth value of a bump/normal texture.

It's just a small UI thing and help new users a lot, I'm sure.

Thanks
