RealCADD and iPocket Draw

Bonjour, As I zoom in or out on a drawing, the line thickness scales, as well. It would be nice if that would remain constant, regardless of zoom. My old program kept the line thickness the same. Is that something that would be possible in a future release? Yes Mike it is possible but not WYSIWYG......

This is a good position to work.

Bonjour Mike,

In iPocketDraw, you have only the command Parallels.
You can't draw directly parallel objects like in RealCADD.

Thanks.

I don't understand ?

Mike,

You can do what you want with this tool.
But after, you have to set dashed the lines you want like this.

Mike,

When object(s) is selected, a right click displays the action menu.
When no object is selected, it is a "tools menu" according the prefs.

Bonjour Mike,

No, it is not possible.

Bonjour Mike,

Yes, you have to "take" it directly on the point you want without selecting it before.
If you select it before and then take a handle you change the object but not move it.

It is why in iPocket Draw, I draw arrows on selected lines to show their direction.
With this arrows, we can know where is the left and the right.
