    Some things we miss badly

    I found the time this day to write down only a few hopes for 2014 and misses for 2013

     

    1. Update also non Autocad Inventor files.
      We love the update function but why we have this restriction that it only work with inventor files.
      We normally use DWF files from Inventor (we get this automated from SAP) and this is a big missing that the update wont work there.
      Also a update of PTC files will be a big winner inside my company cause we have both Inventor and ProE
    2. Preview of Autocad views from a Inventor DWG.
      We use the DWG format inside Inventor but we never get a preview by inserting blocks from this drawings
    3. Update of this drawings  i talked about under topic 2
    4. Supporting layers for all non 3D content like texts / pics and so on
      We have to create multilingual documentations so this will be a big time saver
    5. On publishing selectabel conting regarding to topic 4 here
    6. Enable Illustrator and QuarkExpress export
    7. Support the clipboard for pictures / DWG / DXF


    So i think this is enough for this first list.
    I hope my thoughts will help you

    I miss some better way to align callouts, like a grid or something!
    I also would like to separete the Move and Restre Home button. i would also like to be able to insert other type of document in Publisher like word documet or PDF and be able to choose if the snapshot will be visible in the published document.

     

    just my wish list.

     

    Best regards
    Timmy

    be able to search and replace text in the publisher file.

    maybe even some spelling correction.

    I have the same problem with trails here. I would like to make a part of a trail line invisile. See image.

    remove trail line.jpg

    I think there is no way to do this in Publisher 2013
