Ok, so I feel guilty for the blog neglect and Anthony's attempt to remain technical was a little sad. So I thought I would put this one up.

The Code Set Style Dialog now supports shift and/or ctrl selection for editing!!

Now most of you are probably sitting around wondering why this matters, but as a guy who used to spend alot of time setting up templates and as any of you CAD manager types reading this will likely agree this particular set of styles was a laborious process to setup.

So let's take a look, I'll even put in some screen shots of the product installed on my own machine.

Simply use your ctrl or shift keys to select the desired codes.

Now go ahead and choose a style to change. It is really is just that simple.

I actually clapped in my cube the day I found this. I realize I don't get out much, but they do say it is the small things in life that matter.

I will try and write something a little more substantive later on this week, Anthony's dirty looks in the halls and subtle reminders in conversation were getting the best of me though and I felt the need to post a nugget.

  • Now, if that dialog box would just resize, I am sure we'd catch you doing air guitar in your cube.

  • See, I knew if just posted something sort of technical, he'd get the hint!

    Thanks for the effort Nick.

    Cheers,
