A couple of questions...

Just a couple of points I have noticed while trying out the software.

1)

Is it possible (As in AutoCAD) when you hover over any selected grip that the line length and/or angle can be displayed on screen? Sort of “pop up properties info”
It doesn't sound like much, but believe me its very very handy to have, and I use this to many times in a to count...

 

2)
For some reason I am having trouble displaying a “Batting” line type. Is there any reason for this?

 

3)

While I have been using Bricsys, every so often an already placed hatch patten will disappear! And/or you can no longer apply a hatch pattern. You have to close down and restart? The same applies to layers suddenly changing colour, despite it saying one thing in the layers dialog box, but displaying a different colour???


Any idea's to any of the above?

    1) Dynamic info when hovering over of entity is planned to be included in V10.

    2) Batting linetype: Bricscad's linetype definitions files 'Default.lin' or 'Iso.lin' do not include a batting linetype definition. You can use AutoCAD's linetype definitions file 'Acad.lin' which does include a batting linetype definition. Make sure however that you also copy the shapefile 'ltypeshp.shx' which is defines the shapes used in this complex linetype.
    Copy 'Acad.lin' and 'Ltypeshp.shx' to your roaming support directory (typically)
    C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Bricsys\Bricscad\V9\en_US\support

    3) Could you file a Support Request for this and add the needed dwg's where this happens.
