Great idea. Terrible execution.

An app like this is a fantastic idea and something like this is very useful. But the usability of this particular app is so nonsensical and unintuitive as to make it too cumbersome to be of much use.

Select one button to enable moving an item. Select a different button to enable pointing it. A slider to change the items height. Select another button to enable rotating the model. Changing perspective works in a bizarre inverted manner. Accidentally having multiple buttons selected results in unpredictable behavior when touching and moving on the screen.

Here is how an app like this should work:
- Touch an item to select it.
- Once selected, touch and hold the item to move it.
- Touch and move the line pointing out of the item to change its direction.
- Two-finger touch and move to change the items height.
- Touch and move any point in the studio to drag that point around with the finger, changing perspective.

This would get rid of the horrid button selecting/deselecting to switch between different types of movement.

Ill try it some more and see if I can still make use of it. But as it is now, it is too many taps, too much time, and too unintuitive.
