Please keep in mind that I'm not the one who started this idea. I never thought of such a thing as cloud cad until I saw the VW presentation of it. What year was that? Who is that person and what was their reasons for presenting such an idea?

also, the VW presentation showing cloud VW back in 2010? what where they thinking if is a no-go? I would like to find that person and talk to them. Have them call me.

So all your files right now that you have are more secure than something on the cloud? I'm using dropbox. Also what about VW Nomad? is that not a cloud something?

also these architects/companies that have VW want to jump in at times to do some design work. so that means setting up the whole sharing thing (which I have forgotten how to use) which is complicated with setting up permissions, check in and out etc. so now I have a architect who did some design work but had to do it on an older file and he cannot remember where he placed it.

this browser AEC cad would eventually replace VW, AllPlan & Archicad. So it can't really be just a VW thing.

also, if there are any secret plans to resurrect the VW browser idea please include me into the early concept team as I have been thinking about this since 2017 and have an idea on how to roll out in stages vs trying to give birth to a full grown product.

I'm ok upgrading every year as I use VW heavily. BUT I work with other architects/companies that also have VW. These people are not so eager to stay current and they are a hard sell. We also have massive projects in VW2024 and the headache of converting the entire file structure, including libraries etc to the next version is crippling. I have been free of this headache with the mechanical side of my business which has been using Onshape since 2017. No version updates, no converting my massive library, and as a side point I have experienced no crashes since I started using it in 2017. You need to find the person/s in your VW office who suggested the VW thru the browser idea back in 2010? and send them my deepest apologies as I was one of the ones who laugh the idea off the stage. I am paying dearly for my lack of vision.

yes, so I want to know that my title blocks are 3/4". so is it or is it something else?

this is the kiss of death. This is where cloud cad is light years ahead...reference never ever ever....ever break.

note the plumb bob in the following....difficult to do with a stake tool

again another item that would benefit everyone.
