Michael,
Is it possible that the Ash interface wasn't written for v2? The one command that I tried didn't work the same. It didn't seem to work right. It was the "extrude" command. I selected one of the shapes that you see in the screen grab. I then clicked on the "extrude" icon, and tried to type in a distance. I typed in "1/8" and then hit return but nothing happened. That would certainly work with my current v2 UI.
