Render Settings & View enhancements about nifskope HOT 3 OPEN

From a usability p.o.v its very difficult for initial users to find Render -> settings especially problematic when setting up texture pathing.

A possible proposal for reworking the Render -> settings menu, perhaps to function like the Spells menu, where the tabs of the old "Render -> Settings" window are replaced with sub-dropdowns.

Non-render specific settings, like those found in the general & export tab should be put into a separate Header Menu.

The same would apply for all the "view" related items in the Render dropdown, like Top, Front, Side, Save View.

I can open a separate issues for each if you would prefer, and am open to any direction for ui improvement but the above would be specifically about getting context related setting in the correct place.

That's more related to Issue #13, no? I made this separate from that because this is more simply about fleshing out more options for Settings > Rendering tab. And some are about more options related to the Render View that are menu options themselves, like all the toggles.

We can open one large issue for UI restructuring. I just need to get around to organizing an outline for that. I just have a lot of different thoughts floating around at the moment.

Yeah that issue would be appropriate for moving things out. A summary issue for general UI refactoring much in the same way you have the task list here would work well that.
