As a start to continuing this products development and enhancing a user friendly interface, is it too much to ask for a 'dumb area' function? What i mean by 'dumb area' is the ability to extract an area from a simple sketch of lines in any plane. Why would we want this? Because it's a pain to determine an simple area without it. E.g. When i want to take a part area of a projected elevation, at the moment i have to create a filled region in elevation tracing the building, cut and paste it from elevation into the floor plan then use it to build a floor, delete the filled region and querie the floor to obtain an area then delete the floor. When do i need to do this....only on every job for every elevation to calculate the raking resistance requirements for bracing. Does anyone else have a quicker way to do this?
