I'm on Windows 8 here.
You can either go to the metro screen, RMB select the softimage icon,
and choose "pin to taskbar", or equivalently, you can double-click-start
SI via the desktop icon, and RMB-pin it in the taskbar.
The same does NOT work with the SI 2013 icon, so obviously something has
changed with the 2014 icon, although is still just a shortcut to XSI.bat.

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.

No, the shortcut still points to XSI.bat.
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.

So 2014 doesn't use the setenv batch files anymore? You can pin
XSI.exe to the taskbar? Is that what you mean?

Hey maybe 2015 they will liberate the sdk in softimage :)

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.

This wowed me a lot as an SI user ;-)

a blessing for max (modifier list anyone ?), but
nothing outside of this
seemed to give max an edge.
