[Anonymous]

Wanted to start a list of AC11 Little improvements......which are not announced:

First Selection outline now is shown in dots
Second Selection outline is shown in Dot Dash Dot

Nice, yet still short cut C for changing of the method is still not implemented, must be very hard to code it in!

If u have a plan and u create worksheet from it, u CANT use trace on worksheet of other plans, if u want to do that u have to create worksheets of every plan u have and trace them . Thats a little minus if u ask me.

Trim to roof should be deleted /solid operations are future
Elevation tool - i dont need it section tool is enough
Linework cosolidation - VERY VERY USEFULL TOOL /10 points for this/
Trace is very usefull
Complex profiles and solid el.operations work great !

In slab acces.-floor construcion i wish that i can strech it in plan, this is my wish.

stairmaker sux like years ago !

Zone tool in some cases give me wrong area if i use inner edge, so i must use manual. This was case in AC10 too

Yeah, right. And some day there will be a Mac Sketchup importer for something newer than AC9.

Hope I'm understanding you right, but by right clicking on any worksheet, floor plan, elevation, etc. you can select "show as trace reference" in the project map without making any worksheets

Here are a few undocumented new features / differences I have noticed.

Model view options has a new control for GDL objects based on “ceiling plan” or “floor plan”. I assume a part needs to be scripted to recognize this setting and adjust its appearance.

New Layer combination settings allows quicker adjustment of layer combinations when adding a new layer to multiple layer combinations. These option are only available when a single layer is selected.

New filter by extension (shows only layers of selected layer extension – does not filter for multiple extensions) or xref (hides these layers) in layer setting dialog

“Marker Range” in on screen view options replaces section depth outline in on screen view options

Transparency in sections and elevations are controlled in the section or elevation default settings dialog box

New libraries recognize parts from previous versions.

How about:
Fill Uncut Surfaces & Element's Own Material Colors
in model display of Section/Elevation/IE Windows. I hope did not miss it in AC10. But it is very very slow to generate them.

That was new in AC10.

That's not entirely true.... I've got a lot of objects from the AC10 library that are not recognized in the AC11 library (you have to load the Subset library).

This was the case in AC10 as well (for me, anyway).
