Hi Brad
I totally agree, but please remember such an argument holds true for every single command / function found within AutoCAD.
It is
only my prefenece as it is the option AutoCAD gave me to carry out the task.
I totally agree, and that is where cutomization of AutoCAD comes into play.
Then the company should have offered an alternative, if they haven't then they have failed in their cutomization of AutoCAD (in my humble opinion).
I totally appreciate that, and my comments, words are nothing personal against yourself (so please don't take them in such a manner). Maybe it's just me, but I really can't see the point of creating another command / tool that simply copies the behaviour of a command / tool that already exists within AutoCAD; to me the Autodesk "AutoCAD Design Team" valuable time and budget would be so much better spent on creating new commands / tools that offered the AutoCAD user new found functionality (in my humble opinion).
