Bulk of our customers demand ladder, and their ladder is clunky. In my experience RA is the best with ladder, has been for quite some time.

What if you want to paste ladder? I rarely actually write ladder, I import or paste from a text editor.Not if you use the GXWorks2, you can do ladder in FBD & combine the ladder with FBD it is so flexible.
Again if you use the latest versions & you spend time doing it most become easy.
The pic took me about 30 seconds to do those two rungs.
Start Edits -> Accept Edits -> Test Edits -> Assemble Edits... whew. Honey, I just changed an NO contact to an NC one!
Sorry, but no programming software that requires so many steps/mouse clicks to do a simple online change can claim the honor to be "the best". Even if it is excellent in many other respects. I am not familiar with Siemens to make comparisons, but Omron is just as bad.
If you are doing that in studio 5000 you need retrained.
Hit enter or double click rung, you are in edit mode, make changes, hit assemble button. Not sure how you can get simpler than that.
By eliminating the first step. Just type your changes in, then hit "Assemble/Compile/Commit/whatever" key - done.Not sure how you can get simpler than that.
I do, compared to Studio 5000 at least. Compared to other software, not necessarily.So you think 30 seconds is slow to put that many contacts on two rungs ??????
I could probably do the same, however, I was not putting the contacts to obtain a speed test, the 30 secs was approx. & did not intend it to be a race, you were the one who threw up the speed after the fact, my point was in the first post was in the later IDE you can put as many contacts in a rung, with multiple loopbacks of the power rail & even zoom out til it's almost unreadable, also the spacing horizontal or vertical is only restricted to the size of the element & it's symbol not like the older systems where enabling comments or labels expand it by a multitude of x lines. You said it yourself, this week is the first time using Mitsubishi, so now you are an expert ?, I don't think so, try modifying the settings on the IDE, there are many options & shortcut keys a little hard sometimes to get your head round but then again practice is the key.
