Better User Interface for Dynamic Components
-
Hi eveyone
I've created my first DC. See topic: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=289&t=50742&p=460255#p460255 .
I believe I learned enough from the experience to build more advanced components. I have to confess that I found the interface unintuitive and error prone. So, I'm not looking forward to creating another one. I suspect that this is the reason that DC's have not become more popular.
I think it might be helpful to start a thread here where suggestions for improvements to the interface could be posted. Maybe someone at Trimble will read them and do something

One suggestion is to allow users to rename the component attributes to something more user friendly. (I think I read something like this in another thread). For example, "width" could be typed in over the lenY attribute name. Attribute formula's would then display these names. I'm pretty confident that for most users this would make the formula's a lot easier to create and understand.
Hopefully we'll get lots of other ideas here.
