RealCADD and iPocket Draw

No worries!

Hi Eric One thing I have found is that if you give a texture transparency (say 50%) and then do a save, then close, when you re-open the file, transparency has reverted to 100%. Same applies to hatches. A way around this is to convert the texture or hatch to lines, then apply transparency, then grou...

Hi Eric

No worries

I'll just go on doing it in 1mm or 2mm increments when I get a problem line – this seems to work perfectly out to any distance and it's quite quick to do.

Hi Kasper I probably didn't describe it very well – but I used to be able draw a line so that it finished exactly on another line (or rectangle etc) – and when it was exactly there a little 's' cursor appeared, so that I knew it was exactly there. Now it seems a bit uncertain and I don't get a good ...

Only trouble is we seem to have lost the old attraction to a line - or at least it's become a bit unreliable! So I'm hoping Eric will fix that.
