Nice thread and thanks John!
 
CC Thoughts:
 
Color coding program's status bullets works but I see where that could be confusing
I find it frustrating to not know what was in the Studio Instruments update
I would like to at minimum be able to point CC to previous installed programs so CC can assist in keeping those programs updated (ie: Dimension Pro, Ad2...)

I totally agree. Actually it would seem a perfect opportunity to enhance how well things are explained and documented. They always had a way to selectively install individual components. Now that is no longer possible. Also we loose the ability to select what file types are associated with Sonar.
 
I am in total favor of an enhanced C3.      

Bumping this.

"You still use C3 to download the install files"
 
How do I do that, download to install manually?
I am going on the assumption that C3 will try to put "samples" on my C drive;
something that isn't going to happen on my system!
Thanks,
Tom

I not sure but I would abort the install after a component is downloaded.

Simple really:
 
Just open Command Center and click on your user name on top right side.
That will take you to your product page.
 
There you can download only whatever you need to.

Stratman thanks for that.
I did have to select "Products>View Your Products" from the user name link.
Most excellent!
Is it true if I place the downloaded files into "Command Center\Downloads"
CCC will "know" what needs updating and what does not?
Why am I asking you? (think of that as the french vous, meaning all of you; not tu as in asking only Stratman)
I could just dl Dim Pro and see; right?
I'll check that out!

Would be good to hear the outcome of your experiment, Thomas.

Just dling the file did not work

My understanding is if you download the files you need to install them manually. C3 wont know about the download. It doesn't read the files already dled manually. 
 
At least this will let you have a lot more control over the install. You wont get notification of updates doing it this way.
