Hi @nikolas.mcglashan, I agree with all your considerations, and appreciate your work (I link your YouTube videos to my students as a workflow reference).
I just wanted to make you aware of a few things:
- I made a macro for the Clipping Box you show in one of your videos, in case it might turn useful: Clipping Box Macro
- I also made a custom command to set an object display mode in a view-independent way (same display mode in all views, present and future, model or layout). It is in the PackageManager, named SetViewIndepODM
- unfortunately, Technical mode has some known shortcomings (that I wish will be addressed soon), especially with wireframe mode assigned to objects: BUG - Wireframe in Technical Display Mode
Cheers,
Alessio
