Time saving suggestion

Post by Nick M Singer »

I dont know if anyone has brought this up before but there is an improvement that could be made to eCabs that would save a lot of time in front of the PC. For some reason eCabs does not default back to its previous view. For example if you are in Detail room Plan view and have zoomed in to a particular area and then go into elevation when you are done the view zooms out to extents. There are many examples of this type of thing like the program asking you to save when you are closing even though you have just saved and made no modifications. It is a convention that an application only calls for a save when there has been modification to the work. In \"Edit cabinet\" the program often asks if you would like to save the changes when you have made none, I could go on, but I think you get the point that in the end it amounts to tedious time wasting.

Todd,

Can we also go from Line drawing editor straight back to detail room? this is very monotonous. If we can go from Line drawing editor back to detail room can it also be done to go back to the wall elevation view if that's where we went to the LDE from?

No, not at this time. If you are in the LDE, just click the layout editor button. You will not be in the detail room area. you will have to click detail room then right-click and goto show wall elevation.

I understand what you are getting at. I will forward this onto our programmers, so they can apply it to our wishlist. Again, thanks for your input!
