When you pick metric, you can pick a grid size of 6.25mm. Thank you for the feedback about 5mm as desirable."

We dropped everything and got this one out the door today. Let us know what you think of the new grid sizes in 0.6.2."

Bam! So just like that - less than 12 hours later - the feedback is captured, responded to, analyzed, implemented, tested, and made available to the Autodesk Labs community. Software as a service does offer its advantages. Fast and furious is one thing, but this is extraordinary. Keep that feedback coming in to the discussion forum or [email protected]. We appreciate it. We act on it. Thanks to you - it's working. The feedback loop is alive in the lab
