SubscribeWell, well, well...it just doesn't get any better than this! My presentation in Dublin, Ireland was at the actual Guinness Storehouse!
Cadco did a great job of putting this creative event together. After three hours of presentations by Yours Truly (yes...three hours) the attendees were given tickets to take the Guinness Tour. I'm pretty sure they needed it after listening to me for three hours! They probably all went straight to the top to the very cool Gravity Bar (pictured above right) to get their free pint of Guinness. The Gravity Bar has a beautiful 360 view of Dublin. And believe me - Guinness doesn't taste better any where else in the world! Thank you, thank you so much for all your hard work Siobhan and Brian! Below is a picture of me in action at the Brewery.
Today I'm off to Connecticut for my last presentation of this trip at the Datamat Tech Expo. This is always a great event and a nice way to end my trip. My goal is to get home before the VP debate (which I believe will be fascinating!).
An Undocumented AutoCAD Command: FILTERS
As I've been doing my "Tip a Minute" presentations I usually mention a top secret command that doesn't seem to exist anywhere (not even in HELP!). Now I am not referring to the FILTER command - that is something entirely different - it's that "S" at the end that will send you to a special little dialog box.
As you can see in the image, the FILTERS command launches you into a dialog that makes it super easy for you to quickly delete unwanted layer filters. In releases past, it was very common to find yourself overwhelmed with an abundance of those pesky filters - especially if you were inserting other people's drawings into yours. That's not as troublesome anymore - but I wouldn't be surprised if some of you didn't find this little nugget handy. Hands-down - it is still the easiest way to rid yourself of those excess filters!
And I leave you with a picture of the precious Guinness Pint taken up in the Gravity Bar! Did you know you are supposed to wait for the beer to "settle" before imbibing? In fact - it takes 119.5 seconds (but who's counting?) to get the perfect brew and it's considered very bad not to wait. Who knew!
