    Remember to keep your sketches as simple as possible for best performance. Share things into separate sketches and use 'USE' to snap reference figures between sketches. This way you can hide/show needed sketches and have better control over your model.
    Thank you for answering a question I didn't ask. Regarding the division into separate sketches - it is not always possible to resort to this technique. For example, to find common layout solutions, such as a furniture layout plan to take into account ergonomics or filling the approved design of the model with internal nodes. onshape is a great tool for bottom-up design, but it's really bad for top-down design. Or I don't understand something. Let me remind you, I said that disabling bindings does not work when using the transform tool.

    Another answer to question you didn't ask, Onshape is 3D mcad software. But the reason why I commented with tagging you in is that I create a lot of layout plans and design furniture for living using this amazing tool. You just need to remember it's not built for that and you shouldn't expect such. So as a tip, figure out a way to keep your sketches compact and simple and you will enjoy optimal performance using Onshape for blueprints, layouts, even landscapes or whatever.

    Yes it is. But there is no party, I think.  :)
    Will any great improvement be added as a special gift?

    You'll have to wait and see - unfortunately the development team is not beholden to the marketing team :)

    Maybe you should entice them with Pizza and Beer.
    Well, they are software developers, so Mountain Dew and Funyuns

    Calm down excited people - it will be ready when it's ready :)
    I have already got into trouble twice for trying to stuff extra stuff into this release - they are working hard to get it out.
    Just remember - sometimes a lot of work goes on in the background that you don't necessarily see as a 'new' functionality!
