The single biggest problems ADT users have is dealing with "Wall Cleanups". But it's really not difficult. Someone just needs to share the Hidden secrets for working with walls. The hidden secret is.....
the wall graphline. I call it the wall control line. Walls cleanup with other walls when control lines touch. If control lines don't touch the walls don't clean up. If the wall control lines intersect, that's fine too, unless the overlap doesn't extend all the way through the other side of the wall.
When you start drawing walls the graph "control" line is initially placed at the same place as the wall justification. While technically the two things are not the same, you can think of them the same way. (Just so you know it's possible to force wall control lines to always occur at the center of the wall...but that's not a great idea.) So here's your cheat sheet for getting walls to clean up.
1) Make wall graph lines visible.
2) If there are more than two walls at an intersection try applying a wall cleanup radius.
3) If there are more than 3 walls at the intersection use a wall merge.
4) Call us.

Counting number of groups defined in a drawing
You want to know the total number of groups defined in a drawing. However, you noticed that unnamed groups (for example, *A1, *A2, *A3, ...) are not displayed in the Object Grouping dialog box, making it difficult to determine exactly how many groups there are.
