Hello,
As I gradually wade into the new features one by one, I noticed a few odd things.
1- I can get the point transform tool by pressing "F" but I can't see that particular tool as an icon in the tools panels.

Also, is the point transform tool supposed to accept the power duplicate function? I tried, and it's not working.

2- When I try to use the transform node function (see screenshots) it seems I'm not able to see the transform box. I think I have deselected "hide box when dragging", just in case, but none of the transform handles are showing, and I can't use the transform panel either. It seems that I don't undestand how it works (the Help file id quite obscure)

I have no doubts that I will fins a few other things I don't understand :)

Thanks!

It's not on the Tools bar by default, so use View > Customize Tools

God, thanks, I feel a bit stupid now :)

Out of curiosity: I saw that the node tool and move tool exist in two versions (one with the "nesting" arrow and one without) I thought it might be an alternate version where you can nest other tools into them, but I tried to drag and drop tools into the nesting versions and it's not working. No luck with the help files either. Not the end of the world though, I lived without since...

EDIT: forget it, it's simpler than I thought. The tools are already nested when placed into the bar.
