Vista

Hello,I just replaced my Lap for a machine preloaded with Vista, Bricscad seems to work fine (much better than what I heard from some friends that tested moving to Vista with Autocad that mentioned to me that they had over 50% performance loss) except that upon starting the program from the shortcut and trying to open a file from the pull down menu it will attempt to open a DWT file type instead of the usual DWG file typeAnyone has any other issues with Vista?Best Regards,Jose

  • Opening Bricscad from Vista and attempting to open a new drawing looks for files type DWT

  • By redefining the macro of the open button you can get it to suggest DWG-files instead of DWT. Select menuitem "Customize" in the "Tools"-pulldown menu. Click the "Toolbars"-tab, then click the OPEN-button in the toolbar (normally) above your drawing. In the Customize-dialog you just change the text in the "Macro"-textbox to have the following:^C^C^C(command "OPEN" (getfiled "Open drawing" (getvar "DWGPREFIX") "dwg" 0))Close the dialog and try it
