Random Whinge #4

Why is it that Smartmatch, a tool that provides what would otherwise be
immediate mode services, operates in graphic mode. In other words, why cant
you run Smartmatch concurrently with a graphic command?

I have a user command that does that, and in spite of its other
eccentricities I find it is more convenient to use than Smartmatch.

Thanks Inga,

But it doesn't work in v8.05. hmmm...
Ever since they killed of user commands Microstation has seemed quite
backward. Its amazing how a bunch of user written utilities can mask inept
development.

 

Is that what Chris Z's Infoglide does?
I havn't looked at that for ages. Time to reevaluate.

 

these are new keyins that work in 08.05.00.64

 

Thanks Inga,
Had another look. It works if Accusnap is turned on. I guess that's kind of
obvious. Its pretty cool.
Now thats another reason not to slash my wrists.

 

Now if it only matched text settings too.

 

My God! it does that too. Now if only it would match line spacing.
