I think that the whole favourites thing needs to be replaced with sytles (like in InDesign). I tried out the favs thing but never really used it - didn't really seem to save time when you can easily pick up and inject properties from one object to another anyway - a feature which I love.

What do you mean styles? Like in InDesign if you change a style, all the objects made with that style will change automatically? This means, that I don't have to redefine all the time the walls, just once, and than just refine them?
How many styles will I have to make so?

Jay wrote:Composites provide a hint (and only a hint) of what styles could do for production. In a given project, for example, define a composite for each 'type' of exterior and interior wall and define those walls with the corresponding composite. Note: a composite need not have more than one skin! A one-skin composite is sort of a style.

For example dimentions. You can create 3-4 differnet styles- favorites
and change according to what you want. From text height to metric system to ... And you can just change style this to style that. Powerfull i guess

And the other thing is when you want to change just one wall, but not all of them, wich was made with the same style/fav. All of them will change or just that one, and itt will loose the favorite feature?

As i wrote in my mind the implementation is adding a variable-parameter to each object witch links it to a favorite.This sounds very similar to an idea I posted quite some time ago:
