Is there a way to set up MLCAD so that when I do a zoom in, say change from 100 percent view to 300 percent view, to have the view centered on the part that is currently selected? It is a minor thing, but something that i would like to be able to (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

Michael, Why is the Maximum Coarse movement limited to 100? If one is moving pieces long distances frequently, using the Enter Position/Rotation dialog box can become tiresome. Could you perhaps increase the limit to, say, 250 or so? Regards, --Ryan (23 years ago, 29-May-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
