Another little bug

Post by debenriver »

Hi Eric

The Measure tool seems to have gone a bit screwy!

It's fine on horizontal measurements (measuring between vertical lines). Measuring between angled lines it gradually gets more out of alignment as the angle of the lines approaches horizontal. So at 45º it's pretty much OK. At 20º it's starting to be noticeable.

Rotated text is fine.

The Single dimension tool has the same problem; haven't checked the Multiple dimension tool ....

Bonjour George,

Thank you for your help!

A new version is available :
RealCADD 5.00b2

The command to save the reference for the perpendicular line is now shift + p because alt key is not good for the windows version...
And the menu key to align objects are now with shift instead of alt.

Cordialement
Eric Pousse

Great Eric

All seems fixed :mrgreen:

I'll work on updating my RealCADD manual for Version 5.

I'm recoding whisstock.com – some of the coding is late 1990's and has to run on a legacy server to even work! But it's going slowly because of time constraints and also making it all responsive ... So I'll keep the current manual format for the time being at least.

Cheers -- George
