Hi Paul,
Thanks for the elaboration!
It really was a 'nice-to-have'-feature and as it stands its a minor inconvenience.
I'm reminded on a daily basis how much the Editor has streamlined our workflow, but everything can be improved by tiny increments

Re: Combine/opening PDFs
Hello Stefan, Thanks for the reply. Yes, I'm familiar with the Combine tool, I was just wondering about what determined the order, because it seems random. As I do quantity take-off in the concrete construction industry, it would be quite nice if the Editor opened a selection of floor plans from the...

Combine/opening PDFs
Hello! I did a small trial where I renamed a selection of pdf's by numbering them 1 to 10 and tried both opening and combining the selection. The Editor doesn't seem to care about this and opens them in what looks like an arbitrary fashion. So my question is -what determines the order in which the E...

Perimeter line goes to back of document.
Hello, Since the last update the Perimeter-tool sometimes shows a peculiar behavior. Here I've drawn both a standard Line and a Perimeter line, both at 100% opacity: image.png As is obvious, the Perimeter line is somewhat transparent and places itself behind the actual content of the pdf, while the ...

A lot of construction drawings nowadays feature added 3D-isometrics from Revit.
This is really neat, but it does slow the Editor down significantly when zooming in or out.
