Great update, thanks for your awesome never ending work on this fantastic tool.

Configuration drag and drop is gamechanger (instead of move up endless times:))

I stopped reading after this

• The assigned default value for a configuration input is now displayed in the configurations panel
• Configured dimensions can be renamed 
• List values can be reordered by drag-and-drop
• Configuration inputs can be reordered by drag-and-drop 😍
• You can expand or collapse all configuration inputs in one click

Thanks you sooooooooo much for this! This has been a pain for me for years.

Continuing to read, Oh my god! I'm having trouble comprehending how so many pain points for me have suddenly been solves in one update. This is awesome!

Update 201 is one of my favorites! 🤩👏

@Alex_Pitt I am experiencing the same thing. All my defaults are in inches. When I create a .dxf it defaults to meter. I change to inch it to inch but if I close the program it goes back to meter.

Is there a default setting for .dxf export that can be set?

I kid you not when I say this configuration update will save HOURS of work on our end. We have 2 people who work on configurations full time and needing to update 50+ templates by individually moving a parameter up/down the list with one click at a time was a huge problem. That alone makes this one of the most impactful releases for us.

@bryan_lagrange Don't think so. If you're talking about drawings (rather than exporting from a part studio) I think it defaults to the units specified in the drawing, but I don't know how to change those. They may be locked into the DWT file of your drawing border. Before export, when you change the settings away from "Use drawing units", it does seem to remember the change for subsequent drawings in the same Onshape document. So you should only need to do it once per OS doc.

But yes, it could be useful to set defaults for this in your company settings or user account preferences.
