My preference is also for a perpetual licence. As someone not far from retirement who will likely use PC less regularly, the concept of paying a monthly fee I also find less palatable.

Wow, that is the most promising thing I have seen so far! If beta testers are needed, count me in!

I would definitely agree not to get into 3D. I have not found any application that is as elegant to use at 2D CAD, and I would say the main objective should be to get it running on the latest OS, not to expand its features.

Hi all, I was hoping I might get a bit more traction from my original post from some long-time PC users.

Does anyone know how to have the stationery sort in a logical order (maybe alphabetical?) when you open a new document? No matter how I name the stationery files in the Stationery folder, they appear somewhat randomly.
