This makes the current licensing system difficult to understand. However, if you go to Preferences > Workspace > Selection and Editing, you can activate the option "Use only Arrow tool to edit" which will change that behaviour and prevent other tools from editing. So when you click on the vertex of the selected rectangle, it begins stretching that rectangle without requiring you to activate the Arrow tool. The default behaviour is the ability to modify any selected object regardless of the active tool, a feature that smooths the workflow and has been in HighDesign since version 1.0. I don't like being so negative all the time, but I really wouldn't bother if I didn't care.

And you also have an option for a monthly subscription at a low price whereby you don't get a perpetual license (stop paying and you stop getting access to the app) but every new release is included.

HIGHDESIGN 2017 KEYGEN UPGRADE

I've seen apps that offer two options: A traditional major version perpetual licences whereby you get the app and all dot releases for one payment and a discounted upgrade fee for the next major release. You get a perpetual licence but are denied minor point release updates unless you keep paying.

Plus having the apps in the app store with (presumably) free updates for each major version just confuses things even more. It's not a monthly subscription (thankfully!) and it's not the traditional pay for each major upgrade model with a perpetual licence. The current licensing system seems to be stuck between two stools. I paid for the previous renewal and obviously would have continued to renew had I felt it was worth it. I understand that it's a hard marketplace and you need to make money, but the way to do that is to offer something in return for an annual license. If I'd have paid it, I would have received one minor feature bump and a couple of bug fix releases for the year. I no longer get bug fixes or minor upgrades as I let my license lapse. Since then it has seen very minor updates to 2017.2.2 so I fear you may be right.

HIGHDESIGN 2017 KEYGEN WINDOWS

I hope to be wrong, but unfortunately I imagine that developing the windows version will make it even more challenging to take care of the details I think making the app appear so Mac-like but making it behave like AutoCAD in some places is unintuitive. Again this is compounded by the laggy interface, making selecting the object after drawing it much too fiddly. I wish there were at least a preference option to enable this.

HIGHDESIGN 2017 KEYGEN MAC

Like just about every Mac vector drawing app I've ever used. It looks pretty and Maclike but doesn't behave like a Mac app in too many ways.Īs a simple example of not being Mac-like, I still expect an object I've just drawn to be selected on the canvas so that I can adjust it's properties instantly if required. This lag and counter intuitive behaviour results in everything taking way too long, breaking the flow of the drawing and making you concentrate on the app rather than the drawing. This lag makes everything like wading through treacle and makes it hard to use. There is so much lag in selecting an object (it takes half a second on an i7 5k iMac from clicking to the selection being highlighted) that you are on to the next click before you realise what's going on. This is all compounded by the generally poor, laggy performance. It deletes the previous one instead! So I hit redo to get it back. So I hit Undo thinking, that'll make the unwanted annotation go away. It appears to be drawing a line but then a text box appears! ooops. When you do this with a multi-step object such as an annotation, things get worse. Why?How is this logical? Why is the tool chosen in the toolbar not respected?Īnd just to make things even more confusing, if instead of clicking on a point on the rectangle I click in a blank part of the canvas, nothing at all happens other than the rectangle being deselected. In my book, it should be a line as I CHOSE THE LINE TOOL IN THE TOOLBAR! HighDesign thinks nope, you have a rectangle selected so I'm going to draw another rectangle. Then I click on the corner of the duplicated rectangle to snap the new line to the corner. Now I have two rectangles and I want to draw a line that joins the two rectangles, so I click the line tool. Here's an example of the kind of thing that drives me nuts every time I use HD:ĭraw a rectangle. And if that click results in something you don't want, don't expect Undo to come to your rescue. I still don't have any confidence what the next click will do. I am still finding many frustration in the general UI.
