I am really disappointed with 08. I think it has more bugs in it than windows vista ever did.

The new command manager drives me crazy.

I have a problem when inserting a picture to the drawing. It shows alright after I insert the picture. However, I save the file, close it, and then open the drawing again, the picture is not showing. Have you encountered such problem? Is there anyway I can solve it?

Thanks a lot.

Byron,

You are right, the 3 Point Corner & 3 Point Center Rectangle commands will come in handy as well! It's nice to have some options now.

Best Regards,

Ricky Jordan

Here are two functions which are missing and probably available in SWX 2011 :-)

- DRW table with tolerances corresponding to the precision settings in the PRT dims
- legend / caption for all surface finish symbols used in a DRW

But i agree: mid centered rectangle has a lots of the well known FINALLY effect !!

On the note of the center created rectangle, the ability to create constrained rectangles on odd angles!
*smack head* FINALLY!
very useful when creating some of these goofy shaped plastic components.
