Date Reported: July 14, 2015
Status: Confirmed (15.0.0)
Problem: 30 Day Reset not possible
Solution: This option will return with the next release of embeddedCAD. For now, customers who require use of demo mode to continue production while addressing hardware problems with a USB key are encouraged to install EmbeddedCAD 2014 and contact MicroSurvey for a reset code.
Date Reported: May 27, 2011
Status: Limitation (12.0.0)
Problem: LISP, VBA, DIESEL, ARX, and other programming extensions are not supported.
Solution: As with AutoCAD LT®, this is a limitation of the AutoCAD OEM engine on which MicroSurvey embeddedCAD is built. Users requiring LISP, VBA, DIESEL, ARX, or any other programming extensions should instead consider using MicroSurvey inCAD or MicroSurvey CAD.

Status: Confirmed (12.0.0)
Problem: Title Blocks inserted using the _TB (MsAnnotate > Insert Sheet and Title Block) command's "Layout insertion" method do not correspond with the layout sheet size and orientation settings.
Solution: You can use the _TBCONFIG command (or right-click on the Layout tab and select "Properties") to specify the appropriate sheet size and orientation, matching the title block that was inserted. Available options are specific to the selected printer, so MicroSurvey cannot automatically set these options.

Status: Confirmed (12.0.0)
Problem: When running embeddedCAD under Windows 7 or Windows 8, the "What's This?" Help feature may not work.
Solution: If you wish to use the "What's This?" Help feature, you will need to download and install an update from Microsoft, because Windows Vista (and newer) does not ship with the WinHelp32 viewer. Please refer to the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article for more information. Please note, the main help file will work without this update.

Problem: The menu bar may show multiple copies of the Ms* menus if you save a new workspace.
Solution: Please see this article for a solution. This is on our bug list for future development.
Date Reported: May 27, 2011
Status: Confirmed (12.0.0)
Problem: The menu bar may get out of order (so the Ms* menus appear before File, Edit, View, etc) if you use the CUI command to customize your interface.
Solution: Re-select your current workspace, by using the WSCURRENT command or via the Tools > Workspaces menu. This will unfortunately also turn off any other toolbars and palettes you may have turned on, but you can simply turn them back on and any customizations you may have made to them are left unchanged. This is on our bug list for future development.

Status: Confirmed (12.0.0)
Problem: The AutoCAD help files available within embeddedCAD (via the Help menu, or the Help button on various AutoCAD dialogs) are for AutoCAD 2011.
Solution: Updated AutoCAD 2015 help files are available via your Start menu > Programs > MicroSurvey > embeddedCAD 2015 > Help (AutoCAD 2015). We are looking into ways of updating the AutoCAD help files that are used directly by the program.
