  1. Did something change in fonts from 2019 to 2020. All my templates that had text in one

    line are now wraping. Text that I had stored in a catalog with a text box no longer fit in

    that text box causing me to redo all my work. Please let me know if you have any options.

  2. Happy new year community. I have a question. I created a folder inside one of my catalogs is there a way to drag a part out of this folder and back into my main catalog of do I need to drop it in my scene and then drag back into my catalog. Any help is appreciated.

     

    Thanks

  3. But why should I have to exit the command for anything to show up. That is horrible for work flow. I

    click two points and my dimension should show up. I click two more and that should show up. It used

    to be this way forever until someone complained and made a suggestion that they didn't like how every

    other cad platform worked. This is also horrible for when you do string dimensions off of one another.

    You cant see where the first one is placed and then all the subsequent dimensions are placed off the

    first one that is in the wrong place. Dimensioning is horrible in a program that relies on dimensioning.

  4. When 2019 came out and they switched the dimensioning it was one of the worst decisions I believe ironcad has ever made.

    When I place a dimension I should not have to hit the green check or zoom out to see my dimension was placed correctly. In the

    future I would like for IC not to break things for the small amount of people that ask for "features" and keep them the same. Instead

    make them an option as to not piss off the ones that thought it was ok in the first place.

     

    Thanks rant over...……….. for now

  5. Thanks for responding. At the vary least the warning would be nice. Maybe after you set the parameter there is a check box to lock it

    into whatever you want it to be and then suppression wouldn't affect the underlying parts in the assembly? We are starting to use

    more and more parametric parts and I can see this being an concern for us going forward. Do you guys have a preferred solution to

    this?

     

    Thanks again.

  6. Hopefully this makes sense. We have parametric parts based on how long or how short we make a certain part it adds or subtracts a certain plate. Ok here is the question, when the part is suppressed and then we say unsupress-all no mater if the plate was supposed to be suppressed all items now show up even if the parameter says based on this size it should be suppressed. Hope that makes sense. I have included the part for reference.

     

    Thanks for any help you can lend.

  7. Am I the only person that has a huge problem with dimensioning? I use a top orthographic view

    and to pick an edge or a corner sometimes is an absolute nightmare. Almost mouse throwing is

    happening when I know there should be a mid point on an edge and IC will just not pick it. I change

    from any geometry to nearest and doesn't really help. Does anybody have any tips or does this happen

    to them as well.

     

    Thanks

  8. Not sure it isn't my computer but seems to have changed after update. In the past when you went to save your drawing as a different name you used to have a check box asking if you would like to save the related scene in the same location. It seems to have gone missing.

     

    Please help

    thanks
