CADaddy 0.7.4: a plumbing symbol library, a Dimension Style Manager, and fixes from a second round of battle testing.

Downloads

New

  • Plumbing symbol library: 34 symbols drawn for CADaddy.
    • Fixtures at real size: water closets, urinal, lavatories, sinks, mop sink, tub, shower, drinking fountain, water heater, floor drain, floor sink.
    • Piping symbols placed at your drawing's scale: gate, ball, globe, butterfly and check valves, PRV, RPZ backflow preventer, cleanouts, union, cap, pipe up/down, meter, VTR, hammer arrestor, pump, hose bibb, flow arrow.
    • Each has a tag or pipe size to fill in, plus hidden trade and type fields so counts and schedules can total fixtures by type.
  • Symbols palette: pictures of every symbol, a search box and click-to-place (Window ▸ Symbols, or Insert ▸ Symbols). You can also type SYMBOL.
  • Dimension Style Manager: D, DIMSTYLE or Format ▸ Dimension Style. Unit format, precision, text, arrows, extension lines and overall scale.

Safer with your files

  • Opening a drawing that's already open switches to its tab instead of opening a second copy.
  • Saving over a DWG that CADaddy couldn't fully read now asks first, and keeps the original as a .bak. Every save keeps the previous version as .bak.
  • A cut-off DXF opens with a warning instead of quietly missing objects.
  • Read-only files aren't saved over, and saved files keep their permissions.

Fixes

  • Architectural dimensions read 20'-0 1/2" (not 20'-1/2").
  • A dimension style comes back intact after DWG save and reopen.
  • Viewport layer freezes are saved where other CAD programs read them.
  • Mirrored blocks keep their attribute text readable.
  • Typing works after clicking a drawing, layout or ribbon tab.
  • Typing into a Properties field replaces its value.
  • Properties no longer changes objects on locked layers.
  • Esc closes dialogs.
  • The AI connector's control port closes connections that send junk, and xref paths pointing to other computers are refused.
