      I'm new to Mac but have used SU for awhile on PC and the first thing I noticed is the way toolbars don't fix themselves to the sides or top where I placed all my plugins, and when I downloaded SU for Mac and ran it for the first time some of the toolbars (construction,camera,layers and all the default toolbars that you see on a PC ) aren't even there in the View-Toolbars. Only toolbars that came with Mac install were getting started and large tools along with Google. Kinda funny thing I thought.

      I'm using a MacPro w/ OS X 10.6.8 and do you think upgrading to Lion is worth it?

        Hi Mwm5063, hi folks.

        Right click on the menu bar at the top to get a choice for customizing it.

        A palette with all the available tools will appear.

        Drag anyone you want on the top palette to add it to the palette.

        As for the Large Tool Set, I personnally dismiss it and enable all the others using View Menu --> Toolbars. The only exception is the measurement window (VCB in earlier version) that I leav attached to the bottom rigth of the modeling window.

        Just ideas.

          For £20? Most certainly!

          And put as much memory as you can afford in it too. 💭
