Background-- how Acad ignored customers, maybe Water's letter.

This half-hearted attempt to get input link letter.


Response, also not what they wanted, with elaboration and extension like a Zoolander walk-off.

  1. Stop being slow and crashing when doing 3D.

  2. Stop object-oriented infatuation based on the convince of you geek programmer vs the human misery created for the entire human race.

  3. Stop using regions to represent pixels on bit-mapped images (this is beyond pathetic, hours to do minutes of work.

  4. Change color without 5 menu clicks, 2 at most

  5. Layer handling pathetic-- rewrite

  6. Use methods and interfaces like other common programs (frameaker, excel, Xtree Pro, etc)

  7. Stop gearing everything to architecture market

  8. Postscript in R12 is also pathetic, vector format as regions
