looks very interesting 
updated the first post
updated first post to ver.0.1.1
Nice, PBR preview
updated the first post
Hotelki:
-
Models loader
-
Need to have the ability to create PBR materal and model preview at the same time. For now you have to save your changes in material if you want to see effect of tweaking.
-
Parameters slider (sliding parametres like in blender - hold left click - drag slider) or add Ctrl+wheel parametres slider.
-
Add music files in asset browser (?)

Need to add more scroll levels for material editor
Now it is impossible to explore texture, because last scroll level is this:
If you scroll once more, you will go into model, so it is impossible to explore small details on the texture.

Is there an option to run in full screen mode?
I can add this option 
but this fullscreen will be like in games.
I work on a notebook pc … and a single 1366x768 display is less than satisfactory for a “window-only-mode” app that has a view port and a parameter editing panel on each side. Full screen mode would maximise the useable real estate in the app itself and I can Alt-Tab between apps as needed. Makes sense to me.
People with three 4K monitors probably won’t need full screen mode. 
As for being like in games, its worth a try … I think.

In blender, shortcut for panning is shift+middlemouse button.

Nice … it’s running full screen now.
Are we encouraged to make a wishlist? If so … here is mine.
- A button to close the app so I don’t have to use Alt-F4 (in full screen mode).
- An option (selectable) to save workspaces so that the last models reopen automatically when reopening the app.
- Undo function … to undo unintended deletes of nodes / spatials, reverting parameters and so on. Prolly more involved to accomplish right now, but maybe something cool to think about for a release further down the track.
Implementation a undo operation is difficult. jME SDK use the solution of NetBeans.
Undo and redo is easy with the right pattern btw. I use that for my inhouse TDD workshop using jME to have a not too simple case else people think that TDD is only possible for trivial stuff
I got it from this wonderful book (the link points to the right chapter) Command · Design Patterns Revisited · Game Programming Patterns
A really amazing pattern and you have the redo for free. I also plan to put a java impl with explanation on my blog
