Re: Need HD15 help :(

Got another one. I selected a line & tried to nudge it with the arrow keys. The first nudge moved the line, second nudge deselected it & did nothing. So to nudge a line '4 arrow clicks to the right' I have to select, nudge, select again, nudge, select again, nudge, select again, nudge. Pleas...

Need HD15 help :(

Aloha, I have come across two items that are driving me nuts. 1) I have my move shortcut set to CMD-1. It says CMD-1 in the drawing menu, and it does work if I only move ONE item. However, I just tried to move an entire floor plan. Using the shortcut only moves a) no items if I click anywhere that i...

Hatches in HD15

Aloha all, Does HD15 come loaded with a bunch of new hatches, or is the improvement that we can make our own? I see about 16 hatches when I open HD15. I want to make sure I have the right install, or that my HD might be pointing to the wrong directory where hatches are stored. What i have right now ...

dmg file for old HD?

My HD is corrupt & installing on a new computer with my existing .dmg didn't solve the problem. Does anyone have a link to the old HD download? I couldn't find it on the site. I have an email in to the guys in Perugia, but a solution tonight would be very helpful.
Thank you,
Erin

Re: Copy Text into OLD HD

Looks like my HD might be corrupt. Help from a fellow forum member determined that my old HD can't correctly recognize a hard return (versus a soft return, which it should render as whitespace). Mystery solved. I'll reinstall HD & see if the problem resolves itself. Thanks T!

Re: Copy Text into OLD HD

An example of what's happening:

I have formatted text in Pages like this:

“ I am a sentence.
So Am I.
This is on a newline
and this is too”

when I paste it into old HD, all of the returns are translated as whitespace:
“ I am a sentence. So Am I. This is on a newline and this is too”

Copy Text into OLD HD

I have the enviable task of copying large amounts of formatted text into OLD HighDesign. I was copying from Pages, but I loose all of my returns (newlines). Anyone find a word processing program that will correctly create a newline that old hd recognizes? Ilexsoft guys, is old HD looking for \n or m...

How to get 2015 file to open in 1.8.7 ?

Aloha, I have files that were created in 1.8.7, but I also opened them in 2015. Once I opened them in 2015, I can no longer see any of my work when I open the file in 1.8.7, even though the work was done in 1.8.7. HD crashes trying to open the file. So, I tried to export as DXF and DWG from 2015, th...

Aloha Beagle, you are not the only one. My list got so long that I went back to using 1.8 exclusively.

2015 Right Justified Text

When I RIGHT justify a block of text, all but the last line have a whitespace on the right. It looks like this: blah blah blah blah If I put a return on the last line, the last line will line up with the other text. blah blah blah blah I believe that HD 2015 is translating 'line break' (\n) as a whi...

Re: PDF Printing Problems

Worst case, print to PDF, then use Preview to convert the file to a high res jpg. Image quality won't be as nice, but you do get a usable print. My print shop this method out over a week of hair tearing . Another gotcha we encountered is that I could not email the jpg to them...it had to be on a thu...

reassign shortcuts not working

Aloha All, I've been out of the loop for a few years. I just downloaded 1.8.7 & am having a heck of a time re-assigning some of my shortcuts. Specifically I can't reassign Cmd+2 or Cmd+3. I am trying to get either one on Duplicate, but the Shortcut just plain old won't stick or give any indicati...

Re: wall intersections kaflooey on ungroup

All of my walls are right angles, very simple. Still happens, so I don't think it's the angle. I have noticed that I'm having increasingly bizarre behavior from walls as my files get larger.

Re: reselect last selection

I can't count how many times I've done a tedious select, completed the command, then realized it wasn't the correct distance, angle, etc. Or, even more common, I want to do lots of things to a the same of stuff (move, rotate, move to diff layer, change color, change font face).
