The following buttons below the visualizer all seem to work correctly:

A few points

  • The buttons are a little small; could we make them bigger, so they are easier to click?
  • To me, "snap" has a different meaning: it's something that 2D drawing programs like Illustrator do. Snapping to edges, etc. Could we use the full phrase "Take Snapshot"?
  • It would be really neat if hovering over the +X, -Y buttons caused a plane to be drawn on the view so that users could easily know which view that button will give. The labels don't mean much if the ground's axes are not shown.

Keep in mind that when embedded in the application we'll try to reuse existing toolbar icons but for a web interface I agree.

I used Snap to keep the size of the buttons relatively similar but an image maybe better as we do in current GUI. If we show axes along with the model that are color-coded (RGB) would that do the trick as in 3.3? The hover plane wouldn't be hard to implement, the tricky part would be where to show it to indicate sidedness, or maybe show a face of the bounding-box of the model if that can be computed quickly.

That's a much better button for taking a snapshot @tkuchida ;)
