Chief Online Survey
Don't forget to send in your 3 highest priority wishes for future version.
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/ChiefArchitectSurvey
I don't know that these were necessarily my highest priority, but it is what I came up with.
- User defined Annotation sets tied to views.
- Fix existing elements to display in 2d views correctly.
- Moving the dimension arrow default to be included with the Text Style so that by selecting "controled by layer" I could send a view to layout at any scale without any extra work.
Kind Regards,
Dave Pitman

You would think something as simple as shutters would already be available considering how many different kinds there are. I grow tired of creating my own and applying them to a 3D rendering. Please please please add this feature soon!

It would also be nice if stair rails could be shown in floor plan view.
I would also like to have the option of having different line weights, line styles and fill patterns within a single run of stairs. Maybe a break line tool or something like that which doesn't change the configuration of the stair, just the floor plan view options for each side of the break.X, X3, X5 and X6

1. Additional dimension tools: same tool- different settings
2. Additional dimension tools: same tool- different settings
3. Additional dimension tools: same tool- different settings
the biggest time killer in drawing CD's is spent adjusting / refining dimensions .... IMO.
~ five end to end dimension tools allowing different settings would be a Blessing.

Mike, your post reminded me that I hope someone remembered to ask for a true ortho-lock toggle.
It is so frustrating to adjust a dimension string, and it wants to go out of kilter a couple of degrees, even though angle snaps are on, and set to 15 degree minimum; Shouldn't happen. I call it a bug, and CA calls it a feature request.Kind Regards,

1. More control on dimension snaps, ie. If set to framing then snap to framing both in auto and manual.
2. The ability to lock tool bars and have them stay where you put them.
3. More control and options on Dormers.Jack Mann

Not sure if this is in the top 3 features I would like to see added, but wouldn't it be nice to be able to break and shape a layout box? That way you could get just what you want to show on elevations and floor plans without having to using CAd in the layout, a work-around like a blank white box hiding the unwanted stuff, or having to create a new layer set.
