The new preference to Show Minor Alerts in Mode Bar is excellent. Small time-saving improvements like this will add up over time. Thank you thank you thank you!
Editing Extrudes
After an extrude is moved, paste in place does not work when editing inside it. This was available in MC7 and sorely missed in VW8. Why was it taken away? I do not understand. It seems like a mistake or something overlooked going from 7 to 8. I've suffered its absence throughout 8, and now I find myself scurrying back to 7 after seeing it again in 9. Well, almost.
For example, let's say several extrudes are created and moved into place to represent a stone structure from foundation to roof. Design refinements require introducing a vertical element cutting a corner off from foundation to roof. A square is used as the trimming object (this is where the old Trim command comes in handy), and it's pasted in place on all the extrudes in its path vertically, on all layers, including the roof faces. But it's much more difficult in 8 and 9 than in 7. Why oh why oh why?
