   The subject says most of it.  Dynaperspective looks pretty neat (for
fooling around with building architecture ideas) from the demos I have seen,
but I would like to get some user reaction in general and specifically to
what degree is a color monitor needed (I only have a 21" gray scale at the
moment).  

   What I would really like is a system that had expert system modules that
could fill/follow more abstract objects with various kinds of construction
details.  Thus I could specify that this "slab" was really a stud/drywall
wall and when I enlarged the slab, the studs (in a detail layer) would grow
or reporduce accordingly (putting in headers over doors, prpoeraly
intersecting with other slabs, etc), or that this "line" was really a drain
and have the right sizes of pipes follow the line to meet the building code.
This way you could continue to deal with things at a high level, yet still
see what the impact was on the detail as well as actually having an ongoing
detailed blueprint/BOM.  Anyway since that doesn't exist, Dynaperspective
seems like a pretty good architecture oriented CAD program in the meantime
(a bit expensive as MacApps go at around $600, but so is the competition).
