[Bf-funboard] Scene states

[Sangwoo Hong]

Okay, I swear this will be it for me for today. :)

So, I'm not sure what the etiquette here is about mentioning functionality
from other packages but I recently discovered this new feature in 3DS Max
which has completely changed the way I work for the better and thought it
would be great if this kind of feature existed in Blender.

The feature in question here is the "scene state" feature which I guess was
around for a while now.  Often at work I must have multiple versions of the
same file that I use to generate shadows, FX channels, multiple layers,
etc.  Using scene states, I now keep all these different states the scene
needs to be in a single file and can switch between them pretty seamlessly
without managing layers and object visibility by hand every time and even
saves me from changing environmental settings that has to be switched every
time I want to render out different things.  It saves time, confusion, and
disk space all at the same time.

Just a thought.
