shouldnt the middle looking level be greyed out when you are looking
level, or straight? i think that it should so you can tell when you look
level

I pointed this out in the beta 3.4 ng, and the answer from AW
programmers was no. I don't quite understand why, but it is apparently
a feature that it does not grey out (by design, not a bug).

[View Quote] I'm not sure if Alex #1 was talking about 3.4 or 3.5,
but in 3.5 the buttons do not grey out at all anymore.
Maybe because they had so much trouble with them during 3.4 beta ;)

They said then something like that the view did not change
in discrete increments anymore but that they use floating point
numbers internally (although broadcast integers?),
so the view never really sets at exactly 0 pitch. So you must
click the look level button or key to look exactly level anyway.

they could be lying and not bothering to fix bugs...
