  1. I also really need this feature. I bring this up EVERY year at the conference in London. Every year they give me all these work arounds! Great. I want the real thing not some convoluted process that grinds even the latest G5 to a halt. Layer Links are SLOWWWWWW to say the least. I need to position my building at an angle for how it's actually sat on the site - even if it's fairly orthogonal. All my consultants will be using AutoCAD and easily working on this. I need to import their information seamlessly.. is this too much to ask? Just like I did in Microstation. I do not need live sections, more symbols of cupbaords, more drawing sketch styles, I need 2D drafting tools to help me produce better co-ordinated 2D drawings. Is this too much to ask? For example this is what I would do in Microstation to draw some internal elevations: Import plan file of whole building plan on level 01 for instance. Crop it down (without un-locking anything) then duplicate it four times rotating it each way and then set up my elevations along the top. Changes needed to the plan? Easy go back to the plan file, make an amendment and go back to the elevations file. All four instances are updated.. please help us out here! Stop charging us for upgrades that only add symbols or 3D features that will only be used for 0.5% of the lifetime of a project..
  2. well this would be very useful along with a huge load of other items for Vectorworks such as a rotateable 'model space' type view for working with GPS co-ordinated survey information and a decent referencing system but that's by the by.. I'm guessing that by this jobs board post from the main site that NMNA are still using quite old software to code for the Mac OS.. quote: or Apple Macintosh OS using the Metrowerks Code Warrior Integrated Development Environment, Metrowerks Object file editor Constructor, Macintosh Resource Fork file editor ResEdit, TCP/IP protocols, Object Oriented C++, C++ Standard Template Library, PowerPlant framework, Apple QuickTime APIs & AppleScript scripting language. Design & prototype the application using UML & Design Patterns. Steve Jobs said that the transition to intel is relatively painless for those who are using Xcode to compile their apps for the Mac, those who are still using Code Warrior will have harder time. Obviously there is a very old code base lying around from MiniCAD days but it seems crazy not to take advantage of some of the new tech in the latest version of Mac OS X..
