    You can use a Polyline instead (draw in a clockwise direction). You can still use 3D Polygons, but you'll need to flip the normal in order to reverse the order of points from counter-clockwise (normal up) to clockwise (normal down).When you create the 3D Polygon, toggle Normal Up off and draw the shape in a […]

    I didn't think this was true, but I just tried it and it doesn't matter which way you draw the polyline - it always puts the line direction the wrong way.Sounds like a feature request for Mr. Wizard (Dave G.) to address!Statistics: Posted by MtnArch — Thu Aug 16, 2018 10:06 am

  • DataCAD 19 • Problems with Tree Line and other Line Types August 16, 2018
    Hi there DataCAD users,Just got a quick question about Line types not working right. When drawing a revision cloud I always use treeline. It would be handy if I could just use the polygon tool with its line type set as tree line to quickly place a revision cloud. But, alas, nothing can be simple! […]

    Hi Richard,Do you have the same printer/plotter driver installed on the new computer?Newer versions of Windows change - the way that older versions of any program interact with the operating system cannot be known ahead of time. If all your older hardware (printers, scanners, etc.) continue to work, then consider yourself lucky. Same goes - […]

  • Cheap Tricks • Re: Bitmap Fixed Ratio vs Non-Fixed Ratio August 16, 2018
    Thanks Josh - all this trivia feedback helps. Another 'discovery' I made the other day was to insert BMP's instead of the much smaller JPG's and to my surprise the output PDF with BMP images was a lot smaller than if using JPG's! Needs further testing to validate but may be a welcome method to […]

    I did not have this problem before with DC 15 which was running Win 10 which an update from a previous version. I just bought a new computer with Win 10 already installed. This is the 1st project I have started using it. I have gone back to a project done before the new computer […]

    Hi Daver."If you select a pdf printer to print to, (microsoft pdf, pdfcreator, pdffill), can you not batch plot to that creating 1 multipage pdf that you then print x times with collating. If that worked it would save some timeDaver."That hasn't been my experience with Microsoft Print to PDF. It always pop ups and […]

    [quote="mijenix"]Hi Aaron,I have taken to doing just as you described. Batch plot to single PDF's and then assemble them and print my sets.You would really think that changing the print driver settings to collate would override DataCAD, but that is not the case.Thanks for the input.[/quoteIf you select a pdf printer to print to, (microsoft […]
