I would love to have a few additional settings available in the batch plotting window. Here they are:

1) The ability to set a scale to plot for the batch.
2) The ability to select a plotter and sheet size with quick layout centered on absolute zero for the batch.
2) The ability to use a pen table for the batch.

Here is my reasoning. We are getting in the habit of setting our sheets centered on absolute zero. This way, when you do a quick layout you just set the input mode to absolut zero and hit space, enter, enter. Your sheet is automatically centered so you don't end up with missing edges. With this in mind, the settings above would allow you to plot a check set, full size set, or whatever size set you want without having to go into each individual sheet or set up several different multi-layouts within a file. Just a handy, faster way to batch plot a set.
