OIP overhaul

[VincentCuclair]

Time for an OIP overhaul, I consider myself a fairly accomplished VWs user however even I need to sit back and consider what all these fields are for (I choose the correct ones mostly out of routine not knowledge....)

This is a regular polygon rectangle, I wanted to simply change the rectangle width how is a novice user supposed to know what field represents what?:

I have to agree, though I find it very clear, but that is because of my math background and VW experience...

It could be made more clear, but that counts for the whole oip! Personally, I want to see a more dynamic way of seeing this info, and be able to edit it...

I can totally jump in with a +1 here.

I've taught 3 first year classes this semester and it's a constant question/problem for some students time and time again, especially if they don't have the strongest of math backgrounds.

An obvious and easy improvement would be to separate the object location and dimension fields on the OIP and add descriptive label lines above the respective field groups:

- Location above the X, Y and Z (where applicable) fields; and

- Object Dimensions above the delta X, delta Y and other dimension fields.
