AUTOCAD IS THE WORST PROGRAM FOR ARCHITECTURE

[asilvacotto]

FROM EVERY PROBLEM AND CONFIGURATION ISSUE THAT APPEARS FROM NOWHERE, THROUGH THE TIME LOST SEARCHING FOR THE CAUSE/SOLUTION, AND THE ACTUAL SOLUTION, AUTOCAD WINS IN THE LESS USER FRIENDLY AND MORE PROBLEMATIC PROGRAM OF ALL TIMES CATERORY.

See list of problems being faced in message #5 below https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-forum/autocad-is-the-worst-program-for-architecture/m-p/11642...

I appreciate the response pendean, but a simple 3d rotate view in autocad should work - regardless of what addon (in this case civil3d) is attached to it, and this is what I mean autocad being antiquated. C3D is a fantastic set of tools, but it's constantly let down by the corpse it's attached to.

No issues for anybody doing that in our offices, all 2023 users with a few 2024 users and some 2022 hold-outs. What have to asked-for-help about and tried to fix it so far and where? I can't tell from your posting history in these forums other than rants (which is fine once or twice but...).

Just another point that you failed at being factual with.

Most of your issues are very subjective and not due to the program.

Do not be so quick to blame all our troubles on AutoCAD.

Yes, AutoCAD appears to be quite difficult and frustrating.  After 10 or 15 years, you will be able to solve everything necessary to get the job done.  And or, come up with a work around.
