  1. I have big power line towers with lattice work.

     

    Both methods sounds like they will not work very well.

     

    The shapes isn't in one plane.

    It will be alot of work project edges to a 2D-shape and then do something with that.

     

    Thank you anyway for the suggestion.

     

    Anyone else have any ideas?

     

    Otherwise I will post it as an ER.

  2. Any ideas how to create a surface like that?

     

    It is like an assembly and everything that is solid shall be calculated as area and holes (no geometry) shall be as no area.

     

    It is very much like if you would put a light on the assembly and look at the shadow. Then it is the shadow I'm after.

  3. Hi!

    I'm trying to find a way to meassure a projected area and its area center point.

     

    I have big steelstructures as frame or lattice work and need the projeced area and the centerpoint of that so I can then calculate windpressure acting on that.

     

    Anyone out there who know a metod?

  4. Doesen't this work in the real mathematical way?

     

    If you shall have inside radius 0 you can't have the guidecurve in radius 0.

     

    You shall have the guide curve radius at the corner as the radius of the circuar sweep profile.

     

    You will then get inner R=0.

    Outher R=diameter of circuar sweep profile.

     

    It might be so that you need to put in a guidecurve radius that is something 0,001mm bigger so IC feels that the inner radius is bigger than 0.

  5. Another issue but I couldent leave it unmenssioned.

     

    I see that you also maybe would like "chain-dimension" as an dimension option.

    In this case that would realy help.

     

    That is another ER for me that have been discussed erlier.

  6. Hi Eric!

    There is a workaround.

     

    If you first make a point-point parallell dimension of a line in that angle that you want.

     

    Then you mark that dimension and right click and pick "Insert new", now you can pick the point you want.

     

    Then if wanted delete the first dimension.

     

    This is realy a workaround because you can not afterwards change the points for the dimension, it will then turn into a parallell dimension for the two new points.

  7. ... (details will be out in the beginning of April). Yes there is a spec or features and that will be listed in the Beta program.

    Thanks,

    Any news?

    When will you give us details?

     

    I fear for Carlo that he might starve smile.gif

  8. I to miss that.

     

    A half way thing would be:

    If we at least could "project" the lines/areas for making the sheet curves that we would like to hatch. Wery much like the "project" tool in a scene on a cross-section.

  9. Hi!

    Is it possible somehow to always have a defined global zero point for a dwg output from a drawing?

     

    Why I'm asking is because I work in a team where AutoCAD also is used and we have desided that the global zero for this project (a Powerstation) shall be on one place so we can work individualy and then reference it togheter so we can see the whole thing.

     

    What I need is something like a anchor point that always get the cordinate 0,0,0 when exported to dwg.

  10. Same for me.

    90% of the time I would like to draw straight lines.

    But after almost one year use of IronCAD I still forget to shift to line before use.

    And that means. I pick first point, I pick second point "damn" it ask for a third point, esc, pick "line" command ... pick the points again.

     

    Is it possible to asign hotkeys for this? if not its an ER!

    Like "L" for line

    B for Bspline

    C for circle

    A for arc

     

    And if the hotkeys for 3D-curve could be the same as for 2D-shape I would be even more happy. (For me it is the same tools with only a z-lock for 2D-shape)
