General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: Getting started guide

« Last post by babadmin on April 01, 2020, 04:28:55 pm »

You can find Visual Studio sample projects (.sln) in BabaCAD installation folder (/Program Files/BabaCAD/../NetProjects). We are also finishing new documentation for .NET API and we will put more code samples on babacad website soon.

Note for BabaCAD 2019 Enterprise users: Please update BabaCAD reference and PostBuild events path from '..BabaCAD 2018..' to '..BabaCAD 2019..'. The simplest way to do this is to open project's .vsproj (.vbproj for vb.NET project) and change 2018 to 2019 and save the file. BabaCAD 2018 Enterprise users don't have to do this modification.

Trim command had a bug (in some situations, not always) on arc trim, but it's fixed now. Download and install patch for 2018 version (use download link in your license mail).

I used tangent/tangent circle construction command, and everything constructed correctly. But after that I tried to trim circle with tangents (to get arc part connected to tangent), it trimmed wrong part of circle. I have BabaCAD Home 2018 licensed version. Any workaround on this?

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

« Last post by AnthonySmith on June 24, 2019, 11:54:22 pm »

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

Even I had this thought in mind that they both have no difference Windows and Mac versions they have no functional differences. But just read the information . Thank you for Sharing.

Command "UNITS" (type in command line) to change between mm/feet/inch. Command exists in licensed versions (Home or Enterprise) only, not in trial version.
