Make 3D models of a group of knobs, buttons, LED's, whatever. Set
the lighting and camera angle, and "take pictures" of the controls
in various states. This captures perspective, shadows,
reflections, "rather automatically" once the model is constructed.
What ever happened to PDF files and the hardware acclerated
transforms on BezierCurves possible with Quartz?
If there is an accelerated vector-art architecture somewhere in the
Cocoa/Quartz realm, I'd sure like to see more use of it, personally.
It always seems to me that a PDF-based GUI with accelerated
transforms on PDF objects would be the best way to tackle the GUI
problem for synthesis, but then, what do I know... we only make
hardware. Seems silly, to me, to be emulating synthesizers all the
way to the knobs, which I think are crap controls anyway.
