One of the reasons AutoCAD's interface is so difficult to alter effectively
is that each subsequent version of AutoCAD must be compatible with the
existing world of 3rd party add-ons, at least as much as possible. If we
were to change the user interface, not only would all the uses have to
re-learn how AutoCAD works from the ground up, the learn the new features,
but we'd blow up a very large number of packages upon which hundreds of
developers depend for a living. It ain't easy to make Big changes to the
basic operation of a program like AutoCAD. AAPro may well be in the same
boat, due to POCO/POE and an increasing developer base designing add-ons
for it.
