Hello and Welcome to the forums!

I moved this to a place where Jesse will be more likely to see it and respond   :D

Hope you don't mind me adding the "feature request" bit to the title, just trying to help   O0

I'd like to add my voice to the png with alpha channel request chorus!

I'm having so much fun with Mandelbulb 3D, but if we're starting a wish list, I'd like to add...

1. The ability to move a point to the centre of the image by clicking on it.  This would really help to line up zooms and create symmetrical images.
2. Linear navigation controls: the ability to move in X, Y & Z by a user-determined distance.  This would help with the creation of stereo images, among other things.
3. A magnifying glass function, maybe selected by pressing left and right mouse buttons together. This would produce a window of (say) 100x100 pixels, with a 10x magnified image of whatever is under the cursor.  This would be useful for checking out areas of potential interest, without having to do a render.

But there's no rush.  These are only wishes...

For the 2 issue (and hopefully for the 1st);

- go to 3D Navi.
- press the "Expand settings" button on lower right.
- check "fixed zoom and steps".
- type the wante distance in "Sliding+walking step".
- revert settings as before if needed.
