![]() ![]() ?How do I Load the Scanned DeltaCAD Printouts into my Blender Projects? ?What File Extension should I be using for the Scanned DeltaCAD Printouts? My DeltaCAD Drawings aren’t translatable to Non-DeltaCAD Applications thus, I want to am scan my DeltaCAD “Grid Layer” Printout to create a Non-DeltaCAD Computer File that can be used by Blender. The Blender 3D Window has a Grid System that is only accurately measureable from the Top View and Bottom View and, there is no Grid System for the Left View and Right View and Front View and Back View.īecause I am dependent on using a Grid System for visualizing Object Porportions, I am wanting to use a Printout of my DeltaCAD Grid Layer for measuring my Blender Project Objects. Thus, my version of DeltaCAD can’t accurately measure 1/32" (0.03125) which, is an issue for me concerning some of my DeltaCAD Projects. I like simple software-it doesn’t lock up nearly as much as complex AutoCAD type software and doesn’t do the strange things that AutoCAD does.I have been using DeltaCAD for my Computer Aided Drafting Projects for about 10+ years now.Īs my Default Page Setup for my DeltaCAD Drawings, I have created a “Grid Page” Layer and, I use the “Snap To Grid” Option for all of my DeltaCAD Projects.ĭepending upon the Project, I use 8-1/2"x11" (Letter) Paper or, 8-1/2"x14" (Legal) Paper and, the Grid Setting is either “0.1000” or “0.1250” (my version of DeltaCAD doesn’t do #.# or #.# Grid Detail). it is very simple and I have not been able to produce quickly with it so far but I have only toyed with it on four occasions. DeltaCAD is very affordable (around $40 I think). That’s right-own it without having to perpetually rent it every month for an outrageous fee.īelow is an example of an AutoCAD file I opened with DeltaCAD. I believe the rugged simple 2D version is around $400 for a copy of the software. CADVANCE is way less expensive than AutoCAD. I see there is now a simple 2D version and a more complex version with 3D capabilities. I have downloaded a trial copy last week and look forward to trying it out again. It is too simple a software to lock up yet has what we need to quickly produce 2D drawings. There was a learning curve-about 18 hours to move from CADVANCE to AutoCAD but I don’t ever recall CADVANCE locking up. ![]() Our CAD manager fought long and hard to keep CADVANCE around but when the industry focused on AutoCAD, the company became worried about possible future translation problems (of which no major problems had been encountered in years of use with 14 workstations). ![]() You CAN’T beat the price-NanoCAD is still giving away 2006 versions of it’s software. So far I use it to plot AutoCAD drawings when AutoCAD plots them funny, and I also use NanoCAD to make simple drawing changes. Many AutoCAD features (like 2 key commands) are apparently not available (or I haven’t found the right way to access them yet). I still need more hours to really get the hang of it. NanoCAD is very simple software that has proven more robust and never locked up on me. Don’t get me wrong-I still own and use AutoCAD software, but when strange things happen (often times due to Windows 10 changes) I like having a second software to work with.Įnter NanoCAD. The learning curve to adapt from AutoCAD to AcceliCAD was around 2 hours for me.ĪcceliCAD is phasing itself out has led me to look into other CAD softwares. Recently, though, AccelliCAD announced it will be focusing on other aspects of the CAD industry and time is growing short to purchase a copy of this excellent software. Through years of experience opening drawings with AutoCAD, closing them, working on them in AcceliCAD I can say this software is native DWG and FULLY compatible with AutoCAD–at around $700 for the software-it is a no brainer really. One of the more impressive softwares is called AcceliCAD. Through the years, I have had the opportunity to work with CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) systems besides AutoCAD. ![]()
