Sorry to disagree, I've just tried. There is no pinning to Taskbar and Start menu item in the right click menu, you can pin the XSI.EXE to the taskbar, and must manually redirect the link to the bat. So the conclusion is that it can't.

I'm sure it wasn't possible to pin the 2013 icon to the taskbar, but obviously I'm mistaken, because in can be, by starting SI and RMB-pinning the icon. The icons cannot be dragged and dropped to the taskbar, though, 2014 and older. Sorry for the confusion.

The "new features" vs SDK anhancement debate has been rolling here and on the beta testers forum for so long and persistently now that I'm sure Chris and colleagues have heard us.

Hey maybe 2015 they will liberate the sdk in softimage :) On 15 April 2013 10:37, Stefan Kubicek <s...@tidbit-images.com> wrote: I think thats pretty common when you look at older software. In the beginning it's all about new features and making use of new paradigms a software offers. As it matures and collects features, people become aware and weary of the small annoying things that might have been plaguing them for years, hence they are more thankful having one or two thorns removed from their bread and butter tools rather than the next big Crowd Simulation toolset only a handful of people will never need. It's mostly been UI (Qt, viewport) and now modeling tools for Maya too for the last couple of versions. na the dx 11 is cool but its seems to becoming standardised, max was over due for some UI enhancements, view port switching was painful before, i remember that, but I was speaking more specifically about the larger features. which is ironic when you think about it, the little tweaks and fixes are more interesting then the key features discussed.
