"Simon, It is not a typographical error.  When using mm as the length unit in Rhino, the consistent torque unit is N·mm and is the unit used in the computations.  If you know your torque value in N·m, convert it to…"

"Okay, thanks for this information! But because of it is important to look onto stress levels "inside" a construction, I´m pleased if you can fix this problem!   PS: Torque! Great tool and great job, you´ve done there! I…"

"Ghosted and X-Ray are not properly supported yet... I was busy adding torques and body loads.  I'll have these fixed in the next release.   I suggest running SnS in view modes other than Ghosted or X-Ray until the next…"

"I think it is quite important that the semi-transparent and/or the x-ray mode should also work. As you see, we are developing hydropower components, and much parts are some kind of hollow! Especially at the three pictures I added at the discussion…"

"Cannot edit the uploading files. Here´s the third picture!   Simon"

"Hello Michael & Hugo   You´re right! It´s very confusing to see what´s happen from normal "shaded" mode to "transparency" mode. It seems that Rhino or SnS switches completely the view from…"

"Any success with semi-transparency previously was purely coincidental... I've only just become aware of this X-ray display mode. In the present version of SnS, the colors are applied by texture mapping since it provides much more flexibility in…"

"Torque can be available in the next release？ That's great！ Cancel，Break(Pause) and Restart：It's should be very nice，but not very easy .Is it ,Michael？ Resolutions：We can specify a number manually in the future，can we？ Because of that…"

"No, I´m sure to use the actual version! Because I first download the compact installer from your site, and after I have seen that it don´t work, I download the complete programm (after unistalling the older version)!   But this is…"

"Michael: Maybe some lighter color schemes, like bright Cyan to bright Magenta. Or, a gayscale color scheme. Just for the users that have no color printer (like I)! I think it is hard to see the different colors on a grayscale printout, especially…"

"Hello Michael!   We all are just BETA testers, so my suggestions are only the way I´m thinking when I work with the programm. It´s like: "Hey, it will be nice if this and that feature is included!" For a given discount…"

"Simon, Thanks for the compliments.  Are there any other color schemes that might be of interest?  Except for the two rainbow schemes, the included ones were chosen somewhat arbitrarily. ~Michael"

"Simon, You must have inadvertently run the installer for the previous version.  I downloaded and ran the compact installer and it had the expected functionality. ~Michael"
