Amen !

The tools need auditing thoroughly and independently of development for utility, consistency, presentation. Management must invest in this.

The current method I fear is mostly good enough to dowse the flames as they are found - but not to create the system that as Steve says should kick butt !

There is quite a way to go.

When I purchased 2d/3d it was build 788, we are now coming up to build 835, so we are looking at 47 builds with many bug fixes, however:- On the flip side it shows just how buggy the software was when I purchased, and the fact that the main bugs that cause me concern, such as the problems with the closed splines, problems with surface matching, problems with 2 rail sweep, and others is as much frustrating as irritating. I know I use the app just for modeling, so there are probably other issues that I will not see in my use.

I, and I would think others, need to see these problems with construction sorted sooner rather than later. When Tim put forward about the surface match problems
I did not expect to still be waiting for a fix almost 10 months later. The other problems such as with the closed splines and 2 rail sweep, well, not even an answer from Tim to the reports.

It is not a good situation.
