What features would you like to see added to a future version of DataCAD?

I wish for separate plot settings that are dedicated solely to batch
plotting. Having to go into every single file to make sure every last
setting is correct prior to each of my frequent batch plot sessions is
a huge drain on time.

We use the plot command for far more than just plotting out a set of
prints. The need for firing off an 8 1/2x11 to the client, for personal use,
for team meetings, or 11x17's, with a mix of scales, print drivers/output
devices, pen pallettes, plot window locations and sheet sizes all on the fly
by multiple users require that plot settings be continually re-set, whether
in the heat of the moment or prior to each batch plot.

A separate set of plot settings just for batch plotting (from the blank
screen) would allow one-time, up front settings and instant, entire project
one-button batch plotting, anytime, anyplace.

My wish along those same line was to enhance the external batch plotting with the same features as the internal. See pic below.
