- Description:
- Lathe 0.9b - is a simple 3D modeler for Newton OS devices. A template,
- specified in 2D, is lathed to create a 3D wireframe model. Lathe was
- developed on an MP2K and the performance on that device ranges from great
- to acceptable (depending on the model complexity). Unfortunately, I don't
- have direct access to an older Newton but a friend who tested it for me
- indicated that it was somewhat slow on an MP120. For MP120 and MP130
- users, your best bet is to keep your models as simple as possible. The
- 3D-view is the main area of interest in Lathe. This is where the model is
- displayed. If you tap your stylus within this view and drag it around you
- can rotate the model in real-time. On Newton devices which...

- Size: 17K Date: 9/22/97
- Description:
- inteliCalc 1.0 - When I bought my MP2000, one of the first applications I

- Features: It uses RPN which is typical for a scientific calculator and
- supports a permanent, unlimited in depth stack. The display shows the
- first four lines of the stack and all are implemented as InputLines, which
- means that you can enter and change numbers with the pen or via drag and
- drop. Beside the basic mathematic functions inteliCalc provides
- trigonometric functions in DEG, RAD and GRAD modi. All results can...

- Size: 6K Date: 9/16/96
- Description:
- Hyperfocal calc - is a critical element in any photograph. Have you ever
- noticed a picture where everything seems to be in focus from the
- foreground to the horizon? The trick is to use hyperfocus. The September
- 1996 issue of Popular Photography gives this explanation: Simply put, the
- hyperfocal distance is the focusing point at which the lens must be set to
- provide the maximum depth of field at any aperture. Hyperfocal scales once
- were printed on lens barrels but those helps are rare today. You could use
- a hyperfocal depth chart or remember the mathmatical equation. freeware.
