C4d: some basic sound control, please

Please:
-Add a main volume slider
-Add a simple Sound Object that can be accessed directly from the Object Manager, without having to add a (useless) track

Ae: use full width of panels

On my 30", I can make panels quite wide. But unfortunately, Ae does not strecth the Histogram to get more accuracy.

Ae: Please bring back the reverse path direction function.

Sometimes its easy to paste a bunge of paths and stroke 'm sequentially. In old versions of Ae we had Set First Vertex (still available) and Reverse Path Direction (gone - for some reason.

I know the power of Shape Layers / Trim Path, but it's not as fast to setup when many Paths are involved.

AE: please stop uncollapsing position tracks when a layer's 3D switch clicked.

C4d bug: Edit multiple, identical Noise Shaders together not working.

When two materials have exactly the same Noise Shader applied to a channel, I would like to be able to edit those together. But C4d says that the Texture has <>

C4d - easy access to creating Custom Layout

Wouldn't it be great when this menu



had an entry at the bottom called:

'Save current Layout as preset'.

C4d: better icon for Break Tangents

When dealing with Curves in the Timelin, I'm always puzzled by the icons.
Especially the icon for Break Tangents is unclear.

Here is my reworked version for that icon

Arguments for the change:

-The arrow is not very important, so I gave it less contrast.

-The difference between the situation before and after is more clear.

-The new Icon is inuitively the thing to click for breaking tangents

Ai Simplify Path needs to be reworked

I think Ai needs a more intelligent Simplify Path function. The current function, when set to 100%) adds points to straigth lines, ending with more points than the Original. That indicates that the algoritm is not correct.

Maybe some smart settings can be add, like contrain angle options  etc.
