Hi all,

If you are using v.19 or earlier of Home Design Studio Complete for the Mac, and are considering buying the upgrade to v.20, my opinion is: wait.

And if you did upgrade to v.20, make sure you work on a copy of your v.19 file to preserve your v.19 file. At least then, you can go back to v.19 if you want.

As a couple of my posts have indicated, there is what I would term a major problem with adding dimensions in the elevation editor view. I can't add new dimensions nor can I delete old ones created using v.19. Punch support is aware of this bug and hopefully a fix will be out soon. I sent them my file a couple of weeks ago, and the issue was confirmed, so I don't have reason to suspect it's only in my file.

Also, there are problems with the tools in the 3D views. For example, sometimes I can't switch from the "walkthrough" tool to the "select objects" tool. In addition, the "select objects" tool most times does not actually select the desired component when clicking on it. Not sure if Punch support is aware of this or not.

There are likely other bugs that power users (not me) are running into, but these alone are making me sorry I upgraded.

FWIW,
Dave
