Greetings,

I am interested in BabaCAD general-purpose CAD products, but I'd like to know more about their EULA/etc. before trying either. Perhaps someone can answer a few questions:

a. Where can I find a copy of the EULA for (both of) BabaCAD's products?

b. What are the rules, procedures, etc. for one individual user using a single BabaCAD product/license on more than one computer? Would I be free to use BabaCAD on as many computers I wish, so long as I was the only one using the computers and used them only one at a time, or would I need to "transfer" the license from one computer to another, or are BabaCAD products locked to only one computer, period?

c. Must one be connected to the Internet to use BabaCAD, either while BabaCAD is in use or once every so often to keep the license alive?

d. If there's anything else I should know, please tell me. ;-)

Thanks in advance!

Late Addition:
Is there an upgrade path from BabaCAD 2d/Home to BabaCAD 3D?

General discussion about BabaCAD / Re: Cannot import file to another programme

It's hard to tell you anything about that script (dxf_input.py) because it's not the part of BabaCAD. I can help you only if you send me that python script and dxf file which generates the error.

It looks like there is a problem with the layer name of one of the entities (dxf group number 8). You can go through that problematic dxf file and check every line after the line which contains number 8. By default those lines contain 0 (Layer "0").

Hi
I can import simple files from the saved dxf to another programme (to turn it into a svg for laser cutting) but when it gets more complicated (I think when I've used the array function, I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "dxf_input.py", line 477, in <module>
    layer = layer_nodes[vals[groups['8']][0]]
KeyError: u'Sheet'

Then it won't load

Anyone know if this is a fault with the array function? I see arrayed elements don't undo on the undo function either!

You don't need additional lisp, because there is a built-in object snap feature with parallel osnap option (just click on the arrow near OSNAP menu button at the bottom of app window and check that 'Parallel' is checked). When Parallel OSNAP is turned on, just start drawing a line/polyline and move cursor pointer near the line to be parallel to. Parallel symbol should appear, and then just move the cursor and you will see that your line is parallel wherever you move your mouse pointer/cursor.

Hi,

I work for a some small CAD-tools software development company. Can we get source code of this civil tools plugin for BabaCAD? We are also interested in converting our plugin tools (AutoCAD arx) to work in BabaCAD.

You can find and use lisp script but it's even easier to use SLOPE command if you install Civil Tools AddOn (BabaCAD extension .bem).
Here is the link for Civil Tools extension download (can be used on BabaCAD Home 2020):

Screenshot from using SLOPE and CHAINAGE commands (CivilTools.bem extension module).
