AC20 Minor annoyances

[Richard Morrison]

Overall, I like AC20 a lot! However, there are a couple of minor issues that make it very difficult to work.

1) We seem to have lost the 3D line/flat color library previews, and so now all 3D previews are rendered. This makes it very hard to see any detail in a 3D view if the object is white on the white background. Is there any way to get the old-style preview back?

2) I've noticed that sometimes 3D elements like morphs do not show up right away in the 2D view if they were drawn in 3D. Sometimes it takes drawing a similar element in plan, and then all the elements show up. This is probably a bug, but is there any way to overcome this in the meantime?

I used to be able to select and mirror text labels (you know, the ones with arrow leaders pointing at things in the 2D drawings). The text box would flip to the other side of the leader arrow, with proper justification.

Since upgrading to 20, the leaders have become "sticky" - I can no longer mirror a note so that the leader comes from the opposite side. The leader stubbornly remains on the original side, while the note justification changes.

The thing I've noticed is.... it matters if the "fixed angle" box is checked (Label selection settings> Text label)
AND whether or not you select the label by the text box (4 nodes) or by points on the arrow (7 nodes)
