Would like an option to force rotation snaps at 90 degrees by default, vs 5 degrees — often I’m in a design is mostly right angles and find myself having to specify 90 degrees all the time or get precise with pen. A toggle in settings to specific default snap angle would be helpful on workflow for things like architectural elements.

Thanks!

I just want to say that back in the 90ies we had 2 major cad platforms for the PC  
Micro station and Auto cad, with micro station being a much better product  
auto cad gave free versions to schools and it was easy to copy  
microstation used a dongle and was very difficult to get a free copy

Where is micro station today?
