Hi,
I've been using OpenFlipper for visualization purposes for some time now, I'm quite impressed by the available options (e.g. the number of supported file formats and plugins)! There are a few questions/remarks/suggestions I'd like to ask:
1.) Scrolling up in the viewer results in zooming out, scrolling down results in zooming in. Since I'm an avid Blender user, I'm used to the opposite scrolling behaviour. Is there a way to modify this in OpenFlipper? I could of course change it in the source and re-compile it, but this is not exactly the ideal solution :).
2.) When loading an object (e.g. a .vtk file containing a model consisting of hexahedral cells), the cells are displayed in white. However, the option at 'View' → 'Color schemes' → 'Default colors' results in the cells being displayed in grey. Can this option be invoked when a new object is loaded?
3.) In an earlier version, it was possible to display the hexahedral mesh (flat shaded) and the irregular edges simultaneously, which was a very nice option. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to do this in the new version. Is it still possible?
I'm currently using OpenFlipper v1.4, just compiled it from source. Might be useful to mention that I'm working on an Arch Linux system (64 bit). While compiling, I got a lot of warnings:
warning Detected QT Version higher than 4.8.4!
warning OpenFlipper has not been tested with this QT Version.
The version of QT installed on my system is 4.8.5 (as well as QT 5). So far, no problems in OpenFlipper!

Is there a way your software can create a quadrangular mesh on an existing point cloud? We have a client who is looking for such a mesh to bring into their finite element analysis software
Thanks
