Hi - I've been using the program for a while now and I'm really starting to enjoy it.
A couple of problems have popped though.
The first is the border colour of inserted pictures doesn't save with the file so everytime you open that file you have to reset the border colour for any pictures you have inserted. (the print settings also don't appear to save)
The second problem is scaling when exporting to pdf. I deal internationally so I work on imperial and in metric yet they appear to be two very different beasts (in sketchup you can switch between the two, you can even enter decimal units into imperial files and it automatically converts)
I recently completed a project in imperial and soon found that 1/4" = 1" scale worked perfectly for a plan exported to pdf @ A2 paper size. No problem there.
I've just finished a project in metric (decimal) and for the life of me I can't find a scale that ( i.e a typical one like 1:20 1:50 1:100) that works as all those settings on A2 paper give me a small compact image in the bottom corner - the only way i can get it to fill the paper size is 1:1 which is meaningless.
What's going on here.
I've also noticed that when I import something created in an imperial file into a metric file the imperial is around 1000% larger in size than the metric...... wierd.
