Unfortunately, I think I’ll have to wait until it’s a bit closer to home!

As @troy-degroot has said, the three point method of overlaying should work with different scales. It will even work with different rotations of drawings.
Another way to use the Snapshot is to save it to a toolchest which is scaled to the original drawing. Then when you take it from the tool chest and paste it on the new drawing it will automatically resize to the new drawing.

A virtual potato sounds very interesting @Doug McLean – as long as it doesn’t have any virtual bugs to go with it!

I’ve tried doing a few sets of about 10-20 drawings but unfortunately the time it takes to correct those that don’t line up takes longer than doing them all individually.

Also great for getting the info out of manhole schedules @DavidCutler !

Hi @Chad Czerwinski . With that many changes I’d imagine that using compare would be rather difficult so will be interested to see if someone comes up with something for you.
I have done a comparison a bit like this a different way in the past though. That time I exported everyting out to Excel and then did a bit of Cut & Pasting and aused a couple of formulas to highlight where the changes were.
Good luck!

4 I could handle but in one profile I think I’m now up to 8.
Strange about it being in your default location – I’ve got the European technical team looking into this and they thought it was to do with external storage – Dropbox, OneDrive, etc..
They’ve said they can recreate the issue but there isn’t any fix date yet. -

I know someone who is having with very long wait time when connecting to a server printer.
My main issue is My Tools creating duplicate copies at the bottom of the tool chest. This only happens if everything is saved in Dropbox not the default file location though.
I think that’s about it so far though. -

I’m with you @Doug McLean – I’ve worked out what one or two of the changes are but the rest is still a mystery. @isaac-harned has mentioned something about sequences changing and you have noted the hot-keys – I haven’t discovered either of those yet.

It turned out to be a dodgy set of drawings @DavidCutler ! However, I did test the stitching out on another set of drawings that I’d already put together with the old method – it still took longer with the new feature and the results weren’t as good.
The new toolchest features appear to be pretty good though.
However, I am still trying to sort out an issue that I’ve been having for a few months with My Tools duplicating itself everytime I update and save a profile. One profile currently has 7 duplicate copies of My Tools which is rather frustrating! -

Undo is knock the mouse wheel to the left and Redo is knock to the right – probably my most used functions.
