Re: HD16 arrow key 'nudge'

Thank you, Andrew. Will it nudge by my precision value? For instance, my file is set Fractional feet-inches with 1/16" precision. Nudge will move by 1/16"?

HD16 arrow key 'nudge'

Aloha all,
I use my arrow keys to scoot items around the screen. I think each keystroke moves items by a pixel. I just upgraded to HD16.1, now my arrow keys move the item by 10 or 100 pixels. Is this a setting I missed, the new default, or is my mac misbehaving again?

Thanks!

Re: fills and trim

I managed to cut a hole out of a hatch by accident, but now I can't figure out how to do it. I've read the instructions over and over, tried many variations. I never get the fourth 'cut out an island' option on my menu. Any advice or tips on what I'm doing wrong?

Re: unable to paste objects onto a new layer

More info:

I tried it on my mom's mac using HD2.1 on OX10.9.5 - got the same behaviors. I cannot paste/flatten to a specific layer & delete duplicate items does not work.

unable to paste objects onto a new layer

I'm on 2.2. I have two layers, Highdesign and 'test'. I create a line and some text on layer HighDesign. I cut, then paste, selecting the option to flatten to current layer "test". The items flatten to a new layer called "Layer 0", not "test". I can see the name "l...

Door Framing, Shortcuts & Text

A few questions while I try out 2.1 : Is there a way to get simple doors (no framing)? I like the cleaner look of no frame. I tried setting 'Casing' to zero, but that didn't do it. I am still unable to reassign the MOVE command to a different shortcut and have it work. The CMD-T motion sets my carpa...

pen weight on fillet

I am experiencing odd behavior (that other users can't reproduce). When I fillet two lines, the fillet portion comes out approx 3.5 pen weights heavier. It can't be fixed by selecting all three components & (re-setting) the pen weight. Happened on 2015 2 and 2.1. Persists after a clean re-instal...

Complete uninstall (to reinstall)

Aloha Ilexsoft, I am giving 2015 another try with 2.1 & am having strange results that others are not experiencing. I would like to do a complete uninstall (so that I can reinstall 2.1). Are there any hidden files I need to delete (plist, prefs, etc)? or is it sufficient to delete the app? Thank...

Re: Need HD15 help :(

Aloha Giovanni, I am still experiencing problems inputting units. There are some changes, but now other methods I used do not work in the beta. Let's say I want to make a line that goes 12 feet in the X, 9 inches in the Y. In old HD, my keystrokes were "X 12- enter Y 9 enter". In the Beta,...

Re: Need HD15 help :(

Aloha Giovanni, Thank you for the good news about the beta. However, the link does not work, it cuts off the 'e' in software & the zip file name isn't inside the href. I tried to manually get to the file by guessing the file path, but no luck. EDIT: macitect figured it out http://www.ilexsoft.co...

Re: Hatches in HD15

Thank you, Giovanni. One more question about hatches. In 1.8.7 I could add a new vertices to hatch by double clicking an existing vertices of a hatch. I can't get the same thing to work in HD2015. I use this feature a lot when working with hatches. Is there a way to add a new vertices in 2015? I loo...

Re: Need HD15 help :(

Hi Matthew, How weird that we are getting different behavior. I just spend two days doing a total reformat of my drive & clean install of Yosemite and HD 15. I still get 10 feet if I type 10 or 10". I was hoping a clean sweep of my drive & all programs would solve some of my issues, but...

Re: Need HD15 help :(

When I hold down SHIFT to constrain at 45/90 degree angles, my 90 is 90d30' when I pull down, not true 90. If I try pulling up to 90, I get 89d30'.

If this mac wasn't so expensive, I'd throw it across the room. Really.
