What can't you do with PowerDraft

Acader users still using pen tables to avoid WYSIWG?

Ask you acader to show you where the hidden line is on the screen...

The converstation will end up like this

Acader " That it there !, are you blind ? "

You... "MAGENTA! is not a hidden line mate! its a colour!  why not try using a line style ..."

You ... " But unless you print you cant tell what anything really looks like in acad!"

This thinking has been updated more than 10 years by autodesk but users just  cant adapt or wont change  their use of pen table correction...!

Go figure! microstation WYSIWG is SBO

SBO = So Bloody Obvious!

I can't see Autodesk interest in this kind of information shown to the public eh eh :)
But in my case, the old battle it's still very present as lots of my colleagues don't see eye to eye with methods used by Bentley to do things "this way" and not "other way"... Regardless I trying they have "Eyes Wide Shut"!

Regards,

Would be interesting to see Adesk's version of the comparison, with points chosen to suit. I can't see, on Adesk's site, that they've deigned to produce one. Out on the internet, other comparisons are old (and don't go into Powerdraft and LT). Probably because everyone's using 'verticals' these days so the old battle of the 'vanillas' is uninteresting now.

Very informative. Thanks, everybody.

This is a great example:
