Vectorworks as a whole is going non-modal in 2025 or just the home screen? Begs the question of why the home screen made it to beta as a modal dialogue, when existing modal dialogues are already well established as bad UI. Quote Link to comment
0 Matt Overton Posted January 7 Author Share Posted January 7 Can we add to the why is modal in the dialogue list:- - "New version available" - "Library updates" both these have a tendency to open on the second screen somehow under another app or more likely quicklook window of a pdf. 2 Quote Link to comment
