Is it possible to post an image showing what you mean? I have been viewing ladder logic in 2D for over 20 years, meaning I need to see it [is 3D] to understand it.

Sorry. Would you post an image of the same ladder in both 2D and 3D for comparison? I assume it's pseudo-3D since it does not seem to require 3D glasses or some fancy graphics processor and webcam (looking at your eyes and where they are looking) to make it look and feel like 3D.

The other one makes it easy to spot blocks (3D view), but I can spot those just fine even with aging eyes on the 2D view. The inputs/outputs are easier for me on the 2D view though as less chiseling pixels invade the I/O name space, allowing me to zoom out more and still see clearly. Hopefully V12 Pro version will have this option, or V12 SP1 Pro :)
