Mazak - Yes , there was some progress this week!
Just when I decided I wouldnt touch  Vue with a barge pole anymore, I got an update about the status of my reported bugs. According to this info 3 or 4 additional bugs were fixed (including the undo after align, he only claimed to have fixed it on Monday and it's already in an update! Wow). However I'm using V7 complete not infinite so I'll wait for the new update for that  to come out before I use vue again and check all the good news:)
They claim 'revert to instances' is back and also the use of real size(rather than internal) units has returned. I'm quite happy about those. I am still disputing their response about 3 bugs where they claim things like 'this is not a bug it's a limitation' or 'we havnt encountered this' and 'this is a v7 infinite feature, not complete'.
They still did nothing about the worst bug - the dislexia. Without fixing that  they really cant claim vue is working on the MAC it's a horrible horrible(and may I add -horrible!) bug. They claim they are still investigating  it, but that is of no help to me and other mac uers.
I suppose there is some good in their news.Well, better than a poke in the eye:)
Of course meanwhile I found(and reported) additional bugs, so the overall balance of bugness is maintained(maybe it's a law of nature, like conservation of free energy in the universe):)

PS - The moral of the story -REPORT ALL THE BUGS YOU ENCOUNTER ! YOU PAID FOR THE PROGRAM, IT SHOULD WORK FULLY. sooner or later the machinery at e-on gets into gear and a fix or two are produced.
