but if the sequence gets interrupted you have to revert to using the native copy tool. It would be awesome to be able to restart the stamping sequence if you want to come back and add more grids.

You can ‘continue’ an existing grid / sequence by tapping the CTRL / OPTION key when using the grid tool. There should never be a need to use the native copy tool for managing grid lines.

Perfect, I was hoping it was something easy like that. Thanks!

Also, we released the Australia steel profile library yesterday.

Hello, how can I crop a profile into a corner, the profile builder can only crop from one side?,

[Whaat]

Sorry I somehow missed this question until now.

With Profile Builder 4, you can easily trim a DECAsteel member against two faces.
Just hold SHIFT after selecting the first face to select the second face.

For detailed instructions, see this article in our Help Desk:

Some DECAsteel news…

We just released version 0.1.5 with some big improvements to Direct Connections…

We’ve also been continuing to release more steel profile libraries including a Japan (JIS Standard) library and a Historical Imperial UK steel library.

Oh, and you can also now get the DECAsteel RBZ on the Extension Warehouse.
