RealCADD and iPocket Draw

Right! Changing SA to 0.00001 worked!

So did drawing the air from Point A, snap to C and then snap to B, because SA was then 30º

Knowing the cause makes it easy to fix it on a drawing to drawing basis. And I guess wanting to know perimeter length of an arc is not particularly common! In fact this ...

Hi Eric.

Problem!

I draw a Line AB. I duplicate it. I rotate the duplicated line -30º from Point A, so that I now have a line AC.

I draw an arc centered on Point A, from Point B to Point C (using snap).

In the Edit pane the arc BC shows L = 0.

If I draw an arc, centered on Point A but not ...

Download and working!!!

As ever, thanks Eric for a great program

Cheers -- George

I've downloaded it and played with it!! Gradually learning how to manipulate the lines and objects!

Not sure that for my purposes I will use this feature much, but I'm sure others will!

Hi Eric

I tried creating a new User with just the standard Mac programs and got much the same results as RealCADD gradually slowed down to finally being unusable.

I also ran EtreCheck on the new User with much the same result – Performance: Below Average. The Minor problems listed were much the ...

Can you try on as another user without extension ?

Sorry Eric I don't quite understand what you want me to do??

Cheers -- George

EDIT – and I seem to get the same problems with earlier versions – I went back to v. 5.21. So I guess it must be my laptop. I ran EtreCheck and it said Performance ...

Hi Eric

Yes at higher zooms it does get slower.

I took a couple of screenshot movies which show the problems I'm having. †hese are after about 10 minutes or so. It does get worse than that if you persist.

Hi Eric

To answer your questions:

It doesn't seem to be particularly related to total number of objects or a particular drawing. On the drawing I am working on at the moment there are currently 4116 objects – not a huge number – and about 3000 of those could be converted to four polygons, so would ...

Hi Eric

I am still getting problems running v.5.41 on a non-M chip MacBook Air. It starts off just fine. Very fast everything OK. Then it gradually gets slower and slower until it's basically not usable. So I quit and restart – and then its fine again until it starts to slow down as before and ...

Ah - I know how to do that ok! I have several of them already for other menu items.

I thought you had provided a means to do that directly through RealCADD! I can see now that having tools as a menu item allows you to do that!

No problem.
