People that use AutoCAD find it difficult to change to another CAD system and most times refuse even if they are shown a better more productive and better looking CAD system (eg. vw). This is because (IMHO) they have invested so much time, money, eff

Looks like a good step forward. I would assume you could select all the circles and push/pull them together. I would love to see some bigger changes to the UI. Things that keep your focus in the drawing/3D model. As an example, how about the mode ba

Or VW could have the option of toggling layers so they never make it to LW in the first place. Much easier! Using limits in this way is a workaround at best. I can very easily see someone printing the paperwork w/o a limit and ending up with over 10

I think Autodesk's TrueDWG is the equivalent of Microsoft Windows' Genuine Advantage. Both of them are packaged to give consumer assurance, but can become a nagging presence after a while. Some of the DWG editors use Open Design Alliance's library f

How the fonts behave is defined by the pen attributes settings. From the manual - Quote:For text font and style attributes, set the Pen Style to Solid to use the text attributes set when the title block was created. For text color, select the desire

I have been following the guide for creating a custom title block but as soon as I use it in the Sheet Border tool all the Font Styles become uniform. In the title block symbol I created some are bold, some condensed, etc but this all goes away when

I've got Dassault's Draftsight running on a Windows partition. It's free, and behaves just like Autocad. I can't imagine paying $4000 for a DWG editor, when I can get a free one in Draftsight - and there will be a Mac version soon. And I've seen som
