Re: Selecting topics

Hmmm... Yes of course the Option and Shift keys are already in use – I had forgotten that :!: I guess one would quite quickly learn to like the two different selection modes: "left to right" to select objects wholly enclosed by the marquee; and "right to left" to select objects p...

Re: Urgent request how to work with scale

Hi Hubert I think it works fine with ⌥⌘V (Edit >> Paste special...) provided you don't check the "Through layers" box. I have not ever checked this because I don't really know what it does! I use ⌥⌘V to position the object I am pasting where I want it – and the Anchor feature to use attrac...

Re: Selecting topics

Hi Eric For my two-pennyworth I think that you should be able to select starting from any point as now (top right ... bottom left etc). But it would be nice if, as an option, by holding down the shift or option/alt key, one could select any object that is only partially enclosed by the selection mar...

Re: Urgent request how to work with scale

Hubert ... I don't know – I run Mac OS X 10.10.3 and RealCADD 4.41b4, just like you. I tried changing my Mac to German and then RealCADD was all in German which was great. When I tried a copy and paste from a 1:1 layer to a 1:2 layer I got this message OK: Bildschirmfoto 2015-05-29 um 20.48.20.png W...

Re: Urgent request how to work with scale

Hi Hubert And it's also a lovely sunny morning here in Rockland, Maine! We went from Winter to Summer with no Spring this year, which is a bit of a shock to the system! I guess the protocol to bring up the rescale question must be missing from the German version – that is a pain! I'm sure Eric will ...

Re: Urgent request how to work with scale

Good Morning Hubert Draw your first flange on a plan or layer with the scale at 1/1. Make a new layer or a new plan with scale at 1:2 You set the scale in the Window >> Layers/Pages... menu Copy the 1:1 flange and paste it to the 1:2 plan or layer. RealCADD will ask "Scale objects from 1:1 to 1...

Background to text

Hi Eric When you add a background colour to text, it recognizes ascenders but not descenders because descenders are not included in the selection "box". Screen Shot 2015-05-26 at 08.19.37.png This makes putting text (say with a white background) in for example a vertical line, less than pe...

Re: Moving objects from a certain layer to another

You could maybe do it in the Edit menu. When you select an object it already tells you what layer it is on – if you made this field editable perhaps that would work? Just as you change the length of a line for example in the "L" field or the scale in the Scale field. Don't quite know what ...

Re: Moving objects from a certain layer to another

Hi Hubert

I don't think there is, other than copy and paste or cut and paste.

Or if there is, I've not found it!
