    First, let me say that I do support this idea, and I would certainly take advantage of it. However, while an infinite work area would be great, and very convenient, scaling work is pretty standard practice (depending on your industry, I suppose). Know your resolution requirements and scales if working with images. I work in the sign industry, and use architectural and engineering scales all the time. I also do prepress work and handle a lot of huge prints. With Press Quality PDFs being our primary print output file, we understand the size limit for any PDF is 200", and we design accordingly. As long as your resolution is sufficient in the original file, everything can be scaled at the RIP, anyway.

    CADtools is a very helpful plugin when it comes to scaling, but I really don't understand what the big deal is about working in half or quarter scale if working on a large piece.

    As far as multiple artboards, our drawing layouts are usually 11x17. (That's a max of 247 artboards at that size in the canvas.) I'm not understanding what the difficulty would be in simply starting another document if I needed to continue beyond that.

    I would much rather Adobe work on incorporating their own basic CAD functions and dimension tools, to be honest.
