Things I like about Designer 2.0

[Digitalwoodshop]

This thread is to discuss the Positive Side of Designer 2.0 and Features and Capabilities we see useful.

I grew tired of the:

"I'm holding my breath and stomping my feet until LHR gives us 2.0 FREE"

"I am not going to recommend the machine to anyone until LHR gives us 2.0 FREE"

What I am looking for NOW it the POSITIVE Side of Designer 2.0 and it's CAPABILITIES. That's what the machine is all about... Carving. You won't have to wade through all the "Pouting" to get to the good stuff.

NO Whining about the price, save it for the other thread.

I agree with you Al, thanks. I got 2.0 at the conference and still playing with it but a cool thing is you can your patterns in a widow without opening the file.

Al,

I second Tom's comment on the preview window.

I have only played with it a small amount but so far the new text tools for applying text to any line shape/form, control over spacing and height are great additions.

I do not have 2.0 so I cannot praise it yet. But, one thing I do like is the "old version becomes the default when the new version comes out". I think (hope) this means that people who cannot afford to pay for the newest releases will not be totally out of the loop. They will just be lagged behind a year or so. I think it is important for the helping, sharing, and pattern selling community that users are, on the most part, operating with the same software. (Sorry Al if this is not what you had in mind for this thread but, it is positive!)

This is what we're trying desperately to avoid:

Are you saying that we are trying to keep Designer software on a platform that won't get left in the dirt (unusable) because Windows & Microsoft changed something?

No I think he saying its good to be current with all systems and not guild the Lilly.

I,m happy it not more some software cost 10 times this amount.
Things Change - just think we have had this software for many years with just a few updates (free)
Glad to see the price down for the old guys like me.

Liking what I am seeing with 2.0. Looking forward to reading the promotion to see what other features it has.
