Strata3Dbase question

I've been using Strata 3Dbase for several days, and cannot find a way to zoom out in the view window. I admit, this a very small thing, but it is bothering me, since I want to render my entire model. The button in the upper part of the panel to the left of the screen only seems to zoom in.

Command =

What he said 😛

The real point of posting in this topic is to say that Strata 3D base is now being discontinued. If you have it already they are offering an $89 upgrade to plus (costs $149 normally). If you do like Strata then I would take up the offer as once it has been discontinued, there will be no upgrade path. I intend to take this offer up as after buying Cinema 4D I have decided that it isnt right for me, and am now selling it to a friend :rolleyes:

Thanks Martin.
Why is Strata3Dbase being discontinued? I'm afraid I won't upgrade. The 3D tools that I'd really like to have are in Strata3Dpro, and that's a bit too much for my wallet.

The same is true with the free download version of Strata 3Dbase. Effective early this year, the free download of 3Dbase will no longer be available. We value our 3Dbase customers and would like to offer them a special opportunity to join our user community with a full version of Strata 3Dplus or Strata 3Dpro. We are offering our 3Dbase users a special discount on upgrades. For a limited time, you can:

Upgrade from Strata 3Dbase to 3Dplus for only $89. Click http://shop.strata.com/?Product=54 to order now.

Upgrade from Strata 3Dbase to 3Dpro for only $349. Click http://shop.strata.com/?Product=70 to order now.

Hurry! Once 3Dbase is discontinued there will not be an upgrade path. Take advantage of these savings and order your upgrade today!

As you can see, there is an offer on pro as well. It normally costs $849 so it is a pretty good deal. The pro version doesnt qualify for an accademic discount but plus does. You save $10 on the plus upgrade through the accademic discount.
