Added ability to do designations over Z levels (e.g. long up/down staircases).

Cool beans. Thanks!

I wonder if it applies to "b"->"c" construction designations as well.
No.

YES!  3D designations!  Finally, one of those little niggling things that's always bothered me about the interface!  Thank you Toady!

As to whether or not constructions are included in that, I don't think so, based on the fact that the interface treats designations as one thing, and constructions as a completely different thing, using a different selection/layout system.  Unifying those in some way would be wonderful, but hasn't happened yet to my knowledge, and thus changes made to one will probably not affect the other.

I love the little random unexpected interface features out of nowhere. Like burrows, and mass constructing and forbid/dump designating.

3d designations!? Best thing to happen since the mass construction update!

Maybe not, but will sure help with all those stairs. Thanks!

I hope these are dwarf angels. Otherwise, we'll have them dropping out of the sky.

I registered just to show my excitement for the 3d designations!

Excellent stuff Toady.

Woohoo!  Now I'm just hoping for the ability to have a side-view, like at DFMA.
