General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: Table alias (label)

« on: February 23, 2017, 11:59:31 am »

Yes, DB view is the only option for now, but I will add the alias as an option in next release. Next oracle AddOn version is on the way together with new BabaCAD release.

Check for bcoraerr.log file in folder \Program Files (x86)\BabaCAD\BabaCAD. It should contain last oracle query error.

General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: Mac version vs Windows version?

Everything related to BabaCAD (wishes also) can be asked here on this forum.

Length and Area are calculated automatically for polyline entities, just select polyline and look at the "Properties" window.

General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: Mac version vs Windows version?

Windows and Mac versions almost have no functional differences. There are just a few more functions in Mac version, like Array and Mirror (Modify menu), Ellipse (Draw), better render quality, export to pdf. In Mac version, Lisp is built-in, and in Windows version, Lisp has to be download as Extension Module (AddOn).

Next version of BabaCAD for Windows (release 1.3.6) are comming soon, with:

- Linetypes (- - -, -.-.-, -- -- --, ...) that can be customized (linetypes file in /support/bcad.lin)

- Array and Mirror modify functions that are already in Mac version.

- New entites and drawing commands: ellipse, spline (3D), 3D polyline (3DPOLY).

- New version will be 3D enabled (this is not yet 3D solid modeling version, which is on the way, but more about this later).

- LINE, POINT and 3D POLYLINE objects will have Z coordinate (modifiable in Properties window or moving and snaped to other 3D objects in workspace). Length property calculated for 3D lines and 3D polylines.

- There will be more cool things like "Dynamic Input", grid on/off, smooth render as LW on/off, raster image now saves to dxf when inserted in drawing.

- 3DORBIT command (also SHIFT+scrollwheel+mouse to explore 3D)
- 2D/3D VIEWS: top, front, left,right, isometric.
- Polyline join (PLINEJOIN) for all line based objects (line,polyline,3D polyline).
- New Tools: convert 2D to 3D polyline.

Hope everyone will enjoy a new enhanced BabaCAD 1.3.6

General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: Does BabaCAD support Chinese font in .DWG?

« on: May 30, 2016, 10:00:33 am »

I will put language packs soon, because executable starting too slow if all-languages  fonts are included. I will try to put Chinese patch first on the list.

General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: No reading Layout of ACAD14+2000

« on: April 25, 2016, 09:15:56 am »

I checked again, but it's not 1.3.5. beta bug. It is bug since 1.3 (earlier versions are good). I will fix this in next release. When saved from BabaCAD, and when you open dxf again in BabaCAD, layout is ok. Problem is with dwg and dxf saved in AutoCAD.

General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: Should paperspace background reflect printer setup of paper

« on: April 25, 2016, 08:52:37 am »

Sorry, I forgot to tell you that you have to choose "Page setup" by right clicking on "Layout1" tab (or any Layout tab) at the bottom. Page setup from file menu is not working (will check why).

General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: Button Ellipse and Constuktionline does not work

« on: April 24, 2016, 07:46:58 pm »

Ellipse is programmed since mac version and I will add it to windows version too. I have doubt about Construction lines cause tracking feature is some type of replacement for old time AutoCAD XLine entities. Ortho mode is similar.

Check again. When paper layout is changed then paper is changed also, but you have to modify viewport to fit to new  paper size.
