The viewpoint can be changed while staying at the current platter in a variety
of ways. The easiest way is to enable mouse look with ⌘M. You can also
rotate the current viewpoint and look up, down, left and right by holding down
⌘ and pressing one of the arrow keys. Note that you can change directories
while looking in a different direction by clicking on a platter while keeping
the ⌘ key down.
3DOSX is one of the few OS X apps to handle OS 9-style file label coloring.
This can be accessed via the context menu, or the file menu.
There are many application preferences available as well. For those of you that
play first person shooter games, you can choose to reverse the forward and back
keys, in case your brain is hard-wired that way.
3DOSX fully supports the scroll wheel -- you can rotate platters that are higher
up than you by simply moving the mouse over the platter and spinning the scroll
wheel.
Drag and drop is fully supported between 3DOSX and OS X applications.
You can rotate the current platter by clicking on one of the red buttons at
the far end of the platter, or by dragging a file over one of them and holding
it there. You can also move to any platter with the go to folder command, by
pressing ⌘~. The go to folder box supports auto-completion of file names!
If you find that 3DOSX has cached a directory that needs updating, you can easily
refresh the current directory with ⇧⌘R.
The 3DOSX dock menu allows you to easily switch the front most platter without
bringing 3DOSX to the front.
In the View menu under Sets, you can save many states of your open folders and directories with camera location, so you can work with sets of open platters that you use most frequently.
Turn on disco theme and turn on animated fog for a special treat!
Additional themes should be added to ~/Library/Application Support/3DOSX/Themes
