Model App

Could some one make an app that renders front, back sides of a model then have little boxes show up representing the markers on the model then make it so you can move the boxes. so you have an easyer way to move markers.

If you want XZodia, you can start one and I'll help you whenever you need it, because im really busy with my own work now.

i wouldnt know where to start...well thats not quite true...i would start by making a 3D view of the model but i dont know how to do that

You don't even need a 3D renderer for a 2D viewer. They just want side views.

Meaning each viewer either uses X Y or Z as their X and Y co-ordinates.

View 1 X=X, Y=Y
View 2 X=Y, Y=Z

etc.

After drawing the points graphically, you can draw lines connecting them. Then just draw a square over each bone area. Make it so you can select a listbox item to determine which you would like to edit, the clicking a view, and clicking up down left right could move it. Etc.

the main problem with that is you wont be able to see the model so it kinda loses its point

but also bones dont have a standard size so without a model render...

Yes You render it 2D. Kind of what like milkshape does on its side views.
