François,

My mistake; the window tool, not the door tool. But the points you raised are good, and would indeed be important with thick walls. I realize that I had the same issue when doing plans of ...

Salut François,

You're up late. I hope not still working?

I'm not sure what is not clear about the door tool. Is there anything specific you can identify? Do you need to be able to specify addi ...

Hmm, maybe I've been made a beta tester / guinea pig and never knew it. I simply received an email notification of the update, as has happened with all of the maintenance updates. Canadian support is ...

The recent release of PCADD 8.0.12 provides a change to the behavior of the mouse wheel zooming. Previously, any movement of the mouse wheel (when set to zoom in preferences) would result in a 100% ch ...

Hi,

I'm going to copy part of an email I received from a support person who questioned me about my use of mm line thicknesses. I thought it was quite interesting, as it related output to the physi ...
