Stay in selected mode in drawings

Stay in selected mode in drawings

I hate the fact that every time I want to add a linear dimension I have to go up and select it. If I click on linear dimension it should stay in that mode until I select something else. Makes dimensioning way slower.

Thanks for the comment - 

 

We're certainly looking into continuous dimensioning and appreciate the feedback. I was curious if you ever find yourself using the Marking Menu (accessible through a right click) and the Repeat option at the top. 

 

This is even more rapidly accessible through holding down the right button, dragging up, and releasing. 

 

Let me know what you think of these options and hopefully they help. Are there any other actions you find yourself doing repetitively?

 

Thanks much,

Scott

I often forget to use the right click for things like this but I still don't feel like it should be necessary and don't feel like it improves workflow as significantly as it would if it just stayed in the mode you selected.

Right. Really do appreciate it. It's super valuable to hear about where a feature isn't necessarily filling a gap in someone's work flow. Thanks, and please let us know of any other situations you find - pain points are something we take very seriously and incorporate into future work and development.

 

Best,

Scott
