Robot Skills Reach Daily Limit
I am new to ARC. I purchased the premium subscription but was disappointed that it keeps kicking me out of skills as I'm building because I reach daily limits. How do these limits work?

How To Stop Auto Arranging Of Controls
Every time I startup ARC, my controls are moved from where I left them when I saved the project. This if very frustrating as I spend 20+ minutes trying to get the controls arranged is a way that makes it much easier to find and use controls. Is there a way to have ARC remember control layout and not do the auto arranging?

Hey DJ, What Ya Got Cooking?
Hey DJ, Seems the forum is pretty slow as we are starting to enjoy summer and forge out into a maskless world. Been working on any new cool Synthiam things? I'm looking for inspiration. Any new features or breakthroughs you're investigating? Seems like even feature requests are drying up.
