We just updated from Solidworks 2006 to 2008. I have done all my electrical drawings in solidworks since our company started buying it, because they sounded like they were going to phase out AutoCAD. I have to complain about a couple things.

#1, they took the Move command out of the RightClick Menu, so I had to assign it to a keyboard shortcut.

#2, it takes forever after selecting move for solidworks to allow me to pick a point to actually move stuff. Then it is so sluggish I can't believe that anyone can effectively use solidworks for this purpose anymore.

#3, they have never made a way (that I can figure out), to nicely organize the blocks in a drawing, and they are just listed in the order that they are pulled in.

Do you have any idea why this would be?

I agree Ricky. When sketch blocks were introduced in 2006 I couldn’t understand why they weren’t incorporated into drawing functionality as well. SolidWorks has closed this hole in 2007 and it will be very helpful for us also.
