Description (unaware: this is about a free terrain synthesizer and renderer in development. find out more at #picogen )

I don't know, but that little and really small preview on the lower left is something I would really like myself (or better: I already like it very much).

Also, as you can see, the sun-sky-editor is already integrated into the next GUI.

Oh and, another new feature is "stashing". You can save and restore basically each tab (or more) at any time, and even save that "history" to file on disk. So if you found a cool spot or really nice atmospherics, you no longer need to backup the whole scene, but just press "stash", then "reset" to search a new spot or ambience, and if you dislike, you can just go back


Critique is very welcome

look neat, nice work. The stashing option is really cool, never seen that before.

The idea came from the version control system "git"'s stash feature,, though it doesn't work exactly like it; it is mostly the name that is derived.

Upon trying to find a name, I had thoughts of sitting on the desktop around christmas time, having a nice coffee along with me, and nicely poking around with picogen, creating moody winter imagery. I thought it would be cool if a GUI makes you feel cosy (or adds to it), and cosy has quite a number of nice translations to german

thank you very much

In fact, I can't wait for myself. Especially because I am in my third picogen year; hmm, 3+1/2 months left for this year, this should be doable
