It's a memory hog...
It's a memory hog... Just designing after an hour I hover the mouse pointer over the Chrome tab and notice the counter shows 1.9Gb RAM... an hour later it now reads 3.8Gb RAM and for each hour we continue it keeps going up by 1.9Gb. Plus Chrome itself is a memory hog so even with more than 8Gb RAM, after an hour, your computer would slow down and eventually crash. Luckily I have 16Gb but I can only go for 3 hours max where it freezes and crashes. To me it's a tool to help me visual my design concepts. But it's highly flawed and they refuse to fix anything. There isn't even a button we can hit to report problems. I've had to contact them through Facebook to report problems which they only reply with a standard, "yes thank-you blah-blah-blah" but nothing gets fixed and their solution to the literally hundreds of bugs is to release a subscription model for those bugs? Many of their tools don't make sense much like their hundreds of models of items which practically all look the same only some tiny detail changed like the hardware. Because I believe they've written their platform in the HTML5 and or Javascript coding instead of fixing stuff, all they do is patch. And for those of us who know of such stuff. The more patching they do the bigger the footprint it will have. Thus why we get the 1.9Gb memory hog per hour. Part of the dozens of items they have problems with is simple things like counter heights are standard in most countries yet theirs seem to fluctuate between 27 and 35 inches. Not quite 36" for North American standards. And like why give us a sink option if by putting the sink on the countertop it is ON the countertop and not in the countertop. Meaning we have to edit and pull the sink down into the counter. Or how about wall cabinets which FALL to the floor. We paste a wall cabinet on the wall but it falls to the floor. So now we have to remove the base cabinet to raise the wall cabinet back up, then put the base back in place. How st*pid is that? It's like they are mimicking real life by making us move items out of the way to install and put things back. Or how about moving an interior wall will sometimes flash the pop-up telling us about textures when all we want to do is move the wall and not paint it. How about the house sized pieces of furniture. Or the bathroom vanity that is the size of a fridge? How about when putting the vent hood over the stove, it defaults to the floor above... That and more really d*mb things they won't fix, yet expect us to pay for it while they fix it. The laughable pieces of furniture are those they have all the wrong dimensions. I don't recall a Luxury sports car only being 48 inches wide and 66 inches long by 18 inches tall. While other times some car have their actual factory reported dimensions, but that is rare. SO NO THANKS... I'm not going to pay for something you refuse to fix!!! P.s. and I ignore their add floors. I think of the workspace as a drafting table and I design all floors side by side as if looking at a showroom model house floor plans.
