RealCADD and iPocket Draw

Hi Eric Something seems to have happened to the accuracy in the last two beta's. EG: I draw a line and I then enter, say, 950 in the Length box on the Edit pallet, I get a line L= 948. I tried with lots of different lines and all were inaccurate. The error seems to be a factor of 0.99836 If I enter ...

Hi Eric I thought I would start a new thread on this because it has got spread over several others. As far as I can tell the new Dynamic Parallels works really well and does everything it says it does. It is very nice indeed. But on a drawing imported from DXF it behaves very oddly. It is difficult ...

OK - great!

Will you look at parallels in (possibly?) DXF drawings – see Attributes post – at the same time?

Hi Eric I think I didn't write the question very clearly. Say I want to draw a line at 35º drawing from top to bottom, with the top of the line inclined to the right. With Positive y is Down (original situation), I would need to draw a line at 125º. So I draw my line at approximately 125º and then I...

Hi Eric Something odd is happening to Angle on the Edit pallet when "positive y is up" is selected in the Preferences. I draw a line from top to bottom – normally this would be 90º. With positive y is up, the angle shows as 270º. I actually want my line to be at 35º to the vertical, so nor...

Hi Eric I think part of the problem that Hubert was having with Parallels could be that he was using it on drawings imported from DWG or DXF. The new dynamic parallels works pretty flawlessly on a new drawing as far as I have experienced. It does exactly what it says it does and does pretty much eve...

Now it’s time to say Good Bye.

Goodbye Hubert.

Hi Eric

I don't think "Positive y up" is working on "Move & duplicate" – works fine on "Duplicate & move".

George

That looks great to me!

The "extra" line is a feature... or a bug.

I much prefer a feature ...

OK! I understand now :D With, say, "Single Offset – Number:2 – Offset 20mm" I just can have 2 parallels in the direction I drag. With, say, "Multiple Offset – Number:2 – Offset 20mm" I can have 2 parallels in the direction I drag, but they can be at 20mm or 40mm or 80mm etc, depe...
