I noticed this dimensioned diagram of wall framing with lengths (a feature of Cadsoft Build years ago) from the featured video. Looks handy if that was from Env.

Has the EV8 product been optimized for 64 bit? 

Has the EV8 product been optimized for multiprocessors?

Has there been any work on the Terrain or landscaping functions?

I would love to see an easier way to model the topographical features of a lot or plot.

Have you considered a "run time" program to allow the model to be shown or copied to a client?  No editing functions, but navigation or viewing would be a big plus!  This would allow clients to examine or "live" with the model on their own time (and not in my office).

Morning jjoyce
The viewing feature for clients already exist. They can just download Envisioneer express and then explore and change as their hearts desire.
All of us would like to see the other wishes sooner than later.
Have great day

G'day Chris!
It's a drip-feed just to wet your appetite. A drip or 2 every day with extras on Friday (or Saturday mornings for us Aussies) to see us through the weekends. That list will just keep on expanding . . .

No doubt about that - can't wait.
just one question . . . will we be able to specify tie-down points as we were able in 2 certain legacy programmes?
