    To add to my previous comments about this feature which I dislike greatly. I suspect anyone who thinks it may possibly be useful does not know about the Control bar which can be displayed at the top of the window. Making this more known about would IMHV be MUCH more beneficial than the fiddly little contextual task bar which will never have within it the specific features that individuals want.

    Also there is always the contextual menu which people can use and that is only a right-click away with much more functionality than the contextual task bar. Taken together the Control bar and the contextual menu offer pretty much everything you might need - what does the contextual task bar add, except an obstruction in the middle of your workspace?

    It is possible that novices might marginally benefit from it, but have you actually consulted with experienced users at all to see if they value this feature? To my mind it is just a waste of development resources which could be employed in adding really useful features.

    Top of my list would be scaling across the whole drawing, not just the excellent dimensioning feature.

    Very hard to come up with ideas for improving it when it is the nature of the thing, not its contents, that I object to. Keeping the UI clean is in my humble view a very good aspiration for the UX team to start from.

    It is like another excrescence - the "rich" tool tips which serve almost no purpose except to be annoying.

    Please stop cluttering things up will ill-conceived and pretty much useless nuisance ideas. The product has some great new recent features like dimensioning - they are much more worthwhile and I would like to see the focus on this rather than wasting precious development time time on features that don't increase the functionality of the product.

    I hate this feature. It does MUCH less than the Control bar at the top of the screen and is always in the way and obstructing the artwork.

    What good does it do? Please get rid of it. It is totally unnecessary and doesn't have any positive aspects that I can see. It is clutter without any benefit.

    Yes, extremely annoying. There should surely be some way of avoiding these messages. Maybe the dialog should offer some solutions, such as "From now on ignore profiles in linked content for this document"?

    What it doesn't say is whether any of the linked documents have profiles or not.

    If they do, this dialog is redundant and the profile can just be honoured from that point on, maybe with an appropriate option for this in the dialog box if it is really needed.

    If they don't, then why not give the option to add a default profile.

    This whole thing seems to me to be a real mess.
