Moving objects

Hey Eric! One thing I've noticed is that you can no longer make a drawing scroll by dragging an object to the right or bottom edge of the window – or indeed drawing something (line, spline etc.) that needs to extend beyond the window. You can still make the window scroll back to the left or up to th...

Re: Selection tool action

Hi Eric

I've probably used the wrong word. I mean the dashed box that you draw as you drag the selection tool - like a rectangular lasso

It was called the "selection marquee" in ClarisCAD, so I've always used that term!

Selection tool action

Hi Eric It seems to me that with v.20 d6 and d7, the action of the selection tool has changed. A simple click on an object seems much as ever. But drawing a marquee seems very different. At first, when you draw a marquee, nothing happens - no marquee appears. But if you hesitate, or pause with the m...

Re: Minor suggestion

That would be great I think. It could perhaps have an "Open anyway" button so that one could open two (or more ....) copies if wished. Cheers -- George Edit: It's perfectly possible of course to have two or more drawings with the same name (with the same or different contents), in differen...

Minor suggestion

Hi Eric

I wonder if it would be good if you weren't able to open multiple copies of the same drawing. When you have a lot of drawings open it's actually quite easy to have more than one copy open and work on the "wrong" one by mistake.

Re: New version of 5.20 beta

Didn't really understand this at first – I guess because I've not really used colours for layers! But I think I've got it now :mrgreen: : 1. With Transparency box unchecked, objects will draw in whatever colour is selected in the Attributes pane. 2. Checking the Transparency box will turn all object...
