The OE's work as advertised, but they aren't useful enough...
We use ADT, and send our engineers plan backgrounds in ADT3 format. They use
LT 2000i with an OE.
That process works OK, except...
The OE gives them no control over Display Configurations.
Without this ability, either:
1. I just don't use them, and create multiple plans for different displays
(plan, reflected, etc)
2. I use them, and have to setup *each* of their viewports that display my
plan for them.
I don't like either alternative...
