Why is Bentley discontinuing support for select series? Are you trying to force us to use The Connect addition?
I'm not thrilled with the interface with Connect. And from what I have been reading I am not alone.
I HATE HATE HATE THE RIBBON, I hate all ribbons but I think this one is the worse. There are too many clicks to get to the task you want to go to.
Back in the old days, Bentley was proud that they required fewer mouse clicks \ keystrokes to perform a task compared to Autocad. That workflow went out the window. Using JUST the ribbon just count how many clicks you have to make. LESS IS MORE!
I think we get carried away about the Bugs of CE.
This thread is about Bentleys Policy to force users away from select series to connect licensing.
Up till now we have been using a local Select Server.
CE from Update 11 on doesnt work with select series any more. Only with Connect Licensing
So my Company refuses to install it and they are right.
To absolutely blunt:
In my opinion the Connection Client is a trojan horse !!

Not quite, it's about stopping V8i support. The licensing mechanism change is just a consequence of the (forced) migration from V8i to CE.
But I agree to discuss CE bugs and product quality here is a hijacking the discussion ;-)
