Conics w/ Rho already done. Next three, done, done and done. Five days of voting to make-up about 90 votes or so but I've done my part!

Thats been on the list for nearly 10 years+ now and its still not made it out yet... don't hold your breathe for back compatiablity... you will probably sufficate if you do.

RE: SolidWorks World Top 10 Ideas

Sorry, I forgot my </sarcasm> tag.

I just laughed last year at SWW when the Top 10 included "Backwards Compatibility" and even "Better performance".

The better performance one to me seemed like a no-brainer.

RE: SolidWorks World Top 10 Ideas

Improved Stability is vying for number one right now (seven votes back last I checked). Perhaps rephrasing "Better performance" as "Improved Stability" will do the trick! It doesn't seem that a "given" like stability or improved speed or any other basic software attribute required to be competitive should be on the list but there it is... again.

Perhaps instead of "Backwards Compatibility" it should be "Future Release Interoperability". Then for sure it will happen.

Where's my Thesaurus? Conics,....
