more little goodies

[sfaust]

1 - The Preview box for families (that shows you what each parameter is measuring) now appears to be set on thin lines, so it is actually legible at any zoom level - Sweet!!!!

2 - Properties of walls are re-arranged so that all top of wall information is next to each other, likewise with bottom of wall.

3 - Just tried the new steel joist families.... WOW!!!! That's gotta be right behind the advanced model graphics for the coolest thing so far!

EXCELLENT JOB DEVELOPMENT TEAM!!!!!! I'm quite thrilled!

Hey all,

I just noticed that when you use the align command the lock is always in your current view...No more zooming out to find the dang thing!! That ROCKS! Thanks Team!

That's actually been around since 6.1, but you're right, it's a great little goodie!

You can change a roof slope from the properties box. That's really helpful.

DOH! How'd I miss that obvious little gem! Musta taken it for granted...

Thanks

Wall height "Explicit" is now called Wall Height "Unconnected"

Makes better sense now!

Printing "visible portion of current window" is much better now... I actually get the drawing centered on the sheet without a lot of fiddling.

Also, I notice the "thin lines" command works in a perspective view now.

Actually perspective views used to always be 'thin lined' and 7.0 is the first version where they show lineweigts

"Query" layers for dwg imports rocks !

So does the ability to then turn off the queried layers at that point.

So does the ability to only explode the file into blocks you can then push around... too cool.

How about Settings>Structural Settings? Doesn't seem to do anything yet....

is it possible to schedule the "Unconnected Height" of walls? oooh, this would be nice? anyone know a trick to this?

thx

[beegee]

No, you can't schedule wall heights.
Attempting to use a formula such as Ht = Area/Length, won't work either since the area excludes window and door opening hence giving an incorrect result.
