  1. Thanks all. It's good that any potential file format changes would be incremental so no loss of existing work done in v9.
  2. Has there been a statement about whether the file formats for X9 beta are now fixed? I see some posts about people using X9 for real work so not sure what the situation is as many betas allow for breaking changes and I could test it more for bugs making real updates rather than just experimenting.
  3. With the recent release of Intel Kaby Lake CPUs this is worth getting over Skylake CPUs for those going the desktop quad core route. Each step brings a little more performance at the same clock speed and in this case the i7-7700K is also faster clocked out of the box than the i7-6700K. I am waiting on the enthusiast very of Kaby Lake CPUs (probably 6 or 8 core) as for me that's the best compromise between the fastest desktop CPU per core speeds but only 4 cores and lots of slower cores on the Xeons which only come into their own when ray tracing.
  4. Let's hope these aren't all the best X9 features! At least faster undo/redo is welcome as that is painful to use on complex plans.
  5. One other tip not related to the SpaceMouse itself, but something you may notice when using one as it makes is so easy to move through the 3D views: If you use multiple monitors or a tiled window view and notice any slowdown with your 3D view as you move then ensure the plan and floor with the camera symbol on is not visible. It's not enough to just hide the camera indicator by layer (and disabling always showing the symbol) you need to be on another floor of the plan of not have the plan window visible at all. It appears having the plan the camera was placed on is causing extra re-calculations for the plan. I often place full cameras on an attic floor to avoid this issue as the speed difference can be significant on complex plans.
  6. I've just encountered this issue with Miele appliances and the cut out. Any idea on when that will be fixed? Thanks.
  7. I had that sleep issue on a GTX790 on Win 10 and that needed a driver update and firmware update. Have you still got X7 installed to compare? There have been three Win10 versions since release as it keeps upgrading itself in a way that previous versions of Windows didn't and this adds another variable to the mix.
  8. Just tried it here with several combinations across three screens and had no issues. I do this quite a lot generally and its been fine on v18.3.1.2 x64 Do you get this with an empty or simple plan and default 3D view settings?
