Clipboard for AutoCAD

[autocad.wishlist1734]

Summary: The ability to have multiple cut and pastes when editing a drawing

Description: PLEASE have MULTIPLE CUTS and PASTES in EDIT like the ones in Microsoft WORD...We have multiple UNDO's NOW... WHY NOT EDITS...


How Used: I am a constltant who specializes in RED-LINE of old prints to make them CURRENT... WITH multiple EDITS I can just insert the CORRECTION for that sheet and MOVE ON... VERY EFFICIENT... OTHERWISE I waste considerable time getting the corrections from other drawings...

Feature Affinity: Modify

that sounds great, but in practice it may add a huge overhead in memory consumption, especially when working with OLE data.

Office deals mostly with short strings of text, so the unlimited cut-and-paste works very well, until you try copying a few webpages full of images into a Word document and things get quickly very shaky.

perhaps AutoCAD could implement this with a preset limit on memory allocated for the virtual clipboard.
