Please make a separate, independently "floating" window for the Document Manager (see e.g. Management Tools), independent of the active drawing(s). Working on the drawing must be possible in parallel to the opened Window of the Document Manager. Show More

Hello✔️ Graitec is a multicultural company consisting of employees from an ethnicity of peoples from all nations and colors around the world.   Likewise, we have vast multicultural clients.   In lieu of current media concerning  racial issues and a respect for our clientele, might I advocate rebranding master for Parent and slave for child for the prompts when using "Create joint in a joint group," toolset in Advance Steel.     This is a change long time coming and would be great to see it implemented in the next release/ fix or update.   Why not immediately!   Our clients’ needs always comes first.   Kind regards, Janet Graitec CANADA Show More

Currently, the DXF file generated by Advance Steel shows all the views described by (DSTV) NC file. But not all CNC machines are able to read or handle correctly the DXF files containing more than 1 view.   The feature request would be to have a setting like: "Force output of 1 plate face only in DXF file" So the DXF files for plates will contain one and only one view.   Thank you Emy Show More

Hi, Labels for holes in AS2020 are AWESOME!  Can we please have the same behavior implemented for labels for bolts. Leader to be CENTERED, and offset appr. 1.125 x hole radius. Leaders to "jump" to other bolts in same bolt group the same way as leaders for holes' labels.         Regards,     Show More

Hello.   I would like an update for Dynamo for Advanced steel to version 2. This is more nice to use I would say.     Show More

Hello all together! I think that the Advance Steel desperately needs an additional option in Camera mode, where the user could select the parts that are going to be visible in the drawing view. I thought about that a lot and in my opinion there should be an option (select/deselect parts) in camera box, so the user could select parts visible in the view and if he would later wanted to add or delete parts from the view he could use the (select/deselect parts) to do so, then the drawing would need to be updated. But that is just my idea. Any other option with similar output would be extremely welcome to all AS Users. I think this would increase GA drawing creation productivity for at least 20%. Show More

The idea is to have all the dialogs capable to be resized, similar with the "Drawing Style Manager" dialog.   Show More

It would be very helpful to add a command to delete the screws, but  the holes are not erased. Now the delete command (Autocad) deletes all with the holes.   Regards M. Lukeš Show More

It would be helpful if the section view title had an available token of "Scale". I often scale up my section views of an erection drawing. Currently, I have to manually input the scale and when I update the detail, I have to re-input the scale. Show More

  https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/advance-steel-ideas/2018-version-please-do-stop-moving-of-labels-during-detail/idc-p/7488574#M2530     Dear Advance Steel Users,   This is a link with this request submitted before, and put in the archives because they do not think this is a pain in the neck for those who re-position   manually the labels on erection plans.   I ask everyone who had enough already to vote again either here or in the old post.    All who had enough of this-please do not hesitate to raise your voice.    Regards,   Ilko Dimitrov   Edited by Discussion_Admin Show More

We done a lot of work with Drawing Styles they are very powerfull indeed.   However we really require a way to lock a drawings dimensions even when updating.   Presently when updating drawings or creating sections or adding views or call outs the manual dimensions I have placed get thrown all over the place and I have to redimension my drawing again and again.   Ok in some cases this is not a problem as we have done a lot of work with our drawings styles.  But when we do those strange and unusual jobs that we don't have drawing styles for this becomes a big pain.  With Revit allowing architects to create very organic shapes for buildings these days there comes a point where predefined drawing styles do not do the job.  Hence we need to dimension / part dimension drawings by hand.   If I spend time editing a drawing, issue it for fabrication and then have a revision......  It is much easier to add 1 or 2 dimensions or even move a dimension line or 2 then then to check all dimensions on a drawing.  This becomes a time costly process for the draftsman and the checker which then doubles the time to produce the drawing, loosing any gain from the software.   So the suggestion would be to lock a dimensions from moving in the extension line direction and being removed all together unless the object dimension point has been deleted (i.e. object is deleted hence the dimension point is gone) Obviously they still need to update if they move location. i.e. A shear plate moves 100mm down the beam.  This would be a setting that can be applied or removed local to each drawing.    Maybe a selection from the Document Manager would be a good idea for application and removal to each drawing.     Show More

When a section containing holes without bolts is stretched, the holes may move. This depends on which end is stretched. Can this be prevented? Holes with bolts do not move. The movement can easily go unnoticed and cause huge problems during and after fabrication. (From bitter experience). All holes should behave similarly whether they have bolts or not. Show More

  Hello,   It would be very nice if we could have single part marks and assembly marks exported to Revit via the .smlx file. Maybe to have them integrated with the Identity Data of each element.    Thanks!     Show More

I would like to see that the Details List templates have grips, so we can put them at an exact location. Show More

I would like to see that when creating for example a bill of materials, I can select/choose the items I want to show in the BOM (internal). Now we have 1 huge BOM which do not fit on any of our drawings. By selecting per drawing what items, we can make the BOM fit any drawing. Show More
