I love 85% of this program, however the remaining 15% makes me think that this program is Autodesks BRS.

many of my complaints are the same as other have posted here.

1. Hot keys (customizable)!  it is way too slow to have to navigate everywhere.  Defeats the purpose of sketching!
2. Crashes a lot!  Can’t remember the last time paper and pencil crashed on me.
3. Export data… Why have vectors if you can’t export them in a meaningful way?  no reason why something like line thickness couldn’t be translated
4. UI?  why have a totally different UI in the same family (at least by name) of products?  SBP SBE and finally BRS…
5. Needs to put more modifiers into affect (behavior changers) i.e.  Combine strokes tool should have a modifier to duplicate in place the curves being combined.  That way a lot more work could be done on the fly, rather than copy to a new layer then make edit then etc…
6. Copy to new layer as the only way to duplicate in place… Clumsy, very clumsy!  Again, defeats the purpose of sketching.
7. Needs the ability to control the offset for duplicated items.  Preferably something dynamic, oh maybe something with a modifier key… Hmmm?

this program really has the potential to outshine all else in the category.  however, considering it’s price (I do own, not trial or student copy) it really needs some polish. 

I sure do hope that Autodesk is going to give it more attention for 2013!

Oh, I also need to add to the Very top of the list.

0. needs an SDK/API.
