Say I have 100 rooms on a project . Is it better to create a file for each room , or maybe 4 files with 25 rooms(per area)? One thing I would also like to do is to be able to "hide" rooms that have already been processed. Another issue I seem to haveMachine Token Graphics

I've had the opportunity to tour a facility that builds lawn mowers on a large scale, it was pretty amazing the amount of technology that was being used in all areas. I spent a lot of time where the parts were being cut from 7, 10 and 11 gauge steelDrawer Slide Cross Reference
Question ... Does anyone have or know of a drawer slide cross reference chart? Meaning .... That a Hardware Resources Slide "ABC" is exactly the same prep / same slide as an Accuride "XYZ" or the same as a Salice "LMNOP" or a Bee Slide "123" - and soType of bit for plexi glass application.

I had an idea of making basic door cabinet products a bit easier & all in one. In product prompts having the options on a single product that allows you to pick left door, right door or double door. It would make changing cabinets easier without havingDraw Part 2D
