Select and move control points of mark ups without moving all control points.

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Would be nice to be able to select and move more than one control point of a markup while the unselected points remain anchored. Like how a callout box has a line attached to it; the line stays anchored at the control point while the box can move independently.

Would be even nicer if this could happen with multiple markups at the same time.

Hmm… with multiple markups at the same time? I'm intrigued. What would this control point change do for you when working with multiple markups? I'm thinking of the markups I usually use and I can't think of a time that I'd want to just move a portion of each markup. Care to share your thoughts?

Say you have a markup that represents a panel, there's a polylength feeder conduit going to it, and a bunch of other polylength branch conduits come out of it. If certain control points (like at the end of the lines) were associated with the panel markup, theoretically you could grab the panel and move it with the associated control points following, but the other control points remain anchored in place. The goal is that if I move the panel, part of the feeder and branch follow along with it.

It could also be useful where you may want to move 2 or more control points in a markup at the same time, but not the others. Or, select and highlight 1 control point from multiple separate markups and move them in tandem, leaving the other control points in place.

There are lots of situations it could be useful to have a little more flexibility with control points, but it certainly wouldn't replace default behavior.

Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…
