An old wish that I don't think I've mentioned before: can the Change/Text menu include Color? And could it also include Layer?

If Color can be included, it saves doing another Change/Color step that is almost always required, if you are changing text to match other text, then color *and* font, size, etc. all have to match.

I think someone asked for this a while back also too. Not too sure we would use it for color here but that probably just because how our drawings are setup but I could see where people who have there drawings setup a specific way could really use it. Gets my vote. Maybe one way to do it would be if you go to the change menu you could set those options there, then step into the Text menu and continue to add options there as well then pick? Could see using it this way for sure for having access to the other change menu options.

It would be lovely to be able to highlight a group of layers, and add a prefix to all the layer's names. Just type it once, and it gets added to all the layers you have highlighted.

I would like to see Export, Import, Layer Sets, Vies Layer and View File added to the menu on the Layer Manager. Also it would be nice if I could have the Layer Manager say open when there is not a drawing file open similar to the way Symbol Browser works. That way I wouldn't have to keep opening the Layer Manager every time I start DCAD or close one file and open another one.

And I agree with the other Layer Manager request, especially Snap Grids. I have been meaning to add that to the wishlist for sometime but just haven't done it.
