TC - Cadview Plugin: Info in Statusbar

Peter · Post by **Peter** » 14 Nov 2005, 23:13

The new version of Cadview shows some infos - but which info???

The left area is empty - lost space ..

The next area: XxY - which units (mm, inches, Dots in HPGL?) Where is the point of origin?

Third part: Coordinates - the z-coordinate is always 0.000. Is it sensefull to display it.

Right area: Path and filename. The area is to small to display path and filename; in most cases filename and path is displayed in the other window od TC.

To my mind the status bar is a good idea, but it deserves some small improvements ..

Dear Peter,

Thank you very much for your useful and informative notes and remarks. Corrected CAD View Plugin for Total Commander is available on: http://www.cadsofttools.com/download/CADView.zip

>The new version of Cadview shows some infos - but which info???
>The left area is empty - lost space ..

There are comments now about the functionality of control elements.

>The next area: XxY - which units (mm, inches, Dots in HPGL?) Where is the point of origin?

Dimensions has been added.

>Third part: Coordinates - the z-coordinate is always 0.000. Is it sensefull to display it.

Z coordinate is not equal to zero when the drawing is rotated only. It means that at one moment only a pair of axises can be active:
- open by AutoCAD DWG/DXF file;
- select View > 3D Views > Front menu command;
- select File > Save or File > Save As... menu command;
- open saved file by CAD View plugin;
- note that axis X is equal to zero.

>Right area: Path and filename. The area is to small to display path and filename; in most cases filename and path is displayed in the other window od TC.

This problem is solved.

Thanks a lot again for your help.

Sergey,

the new functions are fine,

<b>but</b> [:0][:0][:0]

one of the zoom function is gone[xx(]: With the last version I could "draw" a window with the left mouse-button and it zoomed immediatly to this window.

Now there are only the "+" and "-" zoom functions.

Please restore the zoom function.

Peter
