Very true. Let me go further to explain. Many companies take the stand of standards to the extreme (IMO). My IT boss, for instance, has "standards" so locked down (or so they think) that they don't even let you have a jpg of your family set on the desktop. What a joke. Anyway, they try and try to say that their "standards" should be adhered to and they even have an average cad guy in charge of the IT side of cad. I've noticed that even though they say no deviating from the "standards", including how the toolbars and menu's are setup, that nobody has the same setup. The first thing everybody does when they start here, is move toolbars around and create ones they're used to using. Also, nobody thinks about upgrades. Everybody modifies the acad.mns file "unknowingly". Anywho, guess what else? Most people here use LT. There are a few of us who full cad. They don't have express tools for 2002. Good thing they're upgrading to 2005ADT. Don't get me started on my opinion for this company using ADT wilst everybody else uses LT. Flop. Anyway, I need to cut this off. Can you see where I'm heading with this? Don't be a cadNazi. Set layer, dimension, use of ms/ps, plotting, linetype, lwt, ctb/stb file standards, but IMO, if you want to have happy healthy working people, be flexible. Allow them the freedom to work with their computer how they feel best. Everybody's different. My command line is always blue with cyan text and my screen is always black. A guy across from me uses a somewhat blue screen. Whatever works.
