It is my pleasure to announce the launch of the AutoCAD Developer Documentation Survey. This survey is to collect information about your impression of the developer documentation and to determine our priorities.

And by the way noticed reference to TheSwamp.org as a source. I listed it first of course.

And I.
Also, they used TheSwamp as reference to find information side by side with their blogs  :-)

12. Would you like to access all AutoCAD developer documentation online in a single location?

That's a trick question.
Do they mean download it all from one location
or
go online to one place to read it.

I said yes ; but fear they want to make it all online only.

Agreed... I hate that I can't download / print it. It's annoying (I'm a books kind of guy).  I had to install separate software to spider the site and copy it to my harddrive... so dumb.

Agreed, that is why I made sure to clarify at the end in the 'how can we improve' question (forget how it was phrased?)... I suggested that they put all of the documentation in one location for offline, not make online the preference because it wastes office bandwidth, requested the Visual Studio integration not require elevated privileges (which I don't have), and that they make the ActiveX docs available from VLIDE again.

Others may not agree (and that's fine), but those would greatly help me personally.

I want it complete, correct, local, electronic, searchable, bookmarkable.

//-------------------

I wonder if this is a bit of push polling ... the next build is due in April isn't it ?


//-------------------

I DO hope they continue to improve it .. I'm due to start serious programming again in a couple of months.
