    Amazing update! Christmas came early! Max distance is something I need to use often, and resort to making construction geometry to measure... Thank you!

    WOW! Y'all have been busy

    I really like the remembering tools. Can we get that added to the extrude command too so it OS remembers your last extrude command option? Seems to be more doable now that the others are happening.

    I dropped it as an improvement request back in 2017 if anyone wants to bump it up.

    Good updates, but the one place I wanted it to remember my inputs, it doesn't remember. Can we add that to break view?

    In the process of taking the bootcamp.  My first questions were regarding showing child/parent dependencies, showing max distance, and changing  measurement units... It looks like OnShape is really trying to make a product that does what users need.  I'm looking forward to being an OnShape user!

    Love the diagnostic features like Show Dependencies and Missing Selections. These types of features go a long way when managing an efficient part studio and troubleshooting. Thank you for keeping an eye out for those types of improvements. Happy Holidays!

    Great updates! The drawing capability is getting very close to major league. One more major push needed on being able to use weight property in title block.

    Just chipping in to say that some of these updates will help me a lot -especially the unit selection, and large radius sketch accuracy!

    This is a ton of great improvements to Onshape.  The aligned rectangle and hatch improvements are very welcome.

    I use hatches a lot to show where a weld should go in a drawing.  Allowing us to drop a hatch on any bounding surface would be fantastic.

    Keep up the good work!

    I got very excited when I saw that it's now possible to scale a sketch!

    However the real utility comes when when it's possible to 'scale by reference' i.e:
    1. Select a scaling origin
    2. Select a feature / point on the existing sketch
    3. Select new point where the original point (and rest of the sketch) will be scaled to.
     
    I understand that there are currently workarounds but these feel like they're approximations based around scale factors not constraints.

    The way transform currently works would lend itself to a very slick implementation of this capability.

    Thank you!

    Every time I need to open up an existing document I am thankful for the new link to the folder. That simple addition saves me so many clicks! Thank you!

    Good job!

    Finally an update focused on refining existing functionality (usability) as opposed to adding new features.

    I am using 1.140 but am not seeing the ability to change measurement units.



    Also, the N shortcut (2nd N depress to flip) is not working.

    @StephenG they're both working for me.  Perhaps some weirdness with a stale browser cache -- try holding shift and clicking the reload button in your browser?

    I did a "F5-Refresh" the page but it did not correct the issue... was unaware that there is a "Hard Refresh" (Ctrl-F5, Shift clicking reload button).

    Anyway, option to change measurement units and flipping nature of N shortcut is now working.
