Wish : more slidercontrol

Hello Paul,

it seems I am in a "make a wish mode today" maybe you should reduce the wish / user ratio to one wish a day :-)

this one is probably an easier one:

would it be possible to adjust the slider interface of the rotation amount of hdris in a way we could better control the positioning of the sun ? I think it would probably be enough to double the length of the sliders, for me personally it would also be more logic / convenient to just have a range between 0 and 360 degrees, without negative values, since this would 100% describe the possible rotation amount without creating double identical settings like 90 and -270 which describe the same rotation amount and so just add confusion and waste "slider space"

thanks

Andreas

This would be nice :)

Maybe -180 to 180 with 50% more length? Wouldn't want them forcing the Octane panel to be wider (or have horiz. slider) but extra fineness in control would be useful.

Don't see any problems with this idea. Sounds great!

I have managed to get the sliders to stretch with the window, which will help a lot. I can put the range from 0 to 360 or -180 to 180. Pls vote which you would prefer :-)

I don't have a strong preference here, probably because I'm used to adjusting both positive and negative at this point, but my gut tells me that 0-360 seems to describe the action more accurately. If it's a spherical HDRI, 360 seems to make more sense.
