Yes it is possible.
There are a few points to be improved in the "page layout" dialog :
- "single page" often leads to... several pages. To get ONE page select 1 raw and 1 column.
-"Engineering" always pop up as a default, though I always use metric.
- The position of the page frame change when I reopen the same file on another computer.

I'm sure Tim will finally improve these points :rolleyes:

After 3+ years of using VC/VCP/ and now Shark, I decided to try Model to Sheet. It was confusing at first. For the most part I'm okay with it.

But, since my model is a 177m ship and has thousands of entities, it sometimes bogs to a crawl of minutes of no response if I check/turn on the setting to preview the model.

I have had to task-kill VCP/Shark several times when I no longer wanted to wait.

Overall, though, I think I like it enough to make regular use of it, but it would be nice if the viewports/overall user experience were more manageable/neater..
