v0.7.9

CADaddy 0.7.9: updates that work, IME and vertical text, the clipboard with other programs, our own DWG reader and writer, Sheet Set Manager II, everyday AutoCAD commands, and a long list of fixes from testing.

On 0.7.7 or 0.7.8? Please download this version by hand, once. Those versions don't offer updates with default settings, and on Windows their installer step never ran. 0.7.9 fixes both, so from here on CADaddy updates itself again.

Downloads

Updates and security

  • Updates work again: the update card shows with default settings, Windows installs the update on Restart Now, and the card sits above the support banner. Updater messages are in your interface language.
  • Updates are signed (SHA256SUMS + signature); tampered, truncated, unsigned, wrong-key and downgrade releases are refused and leave your copy untouched.
  • Image, font and hyperlink paths can't point at other computers' shares (no password-hash leaks on Windows); disguised links to programs ask first.
  • Agents can't loosen trusted locations, the control-port token or their own confirmations; agent batches go through the same safety rails; MCP requests are size-limited.

Drawing and editing

  • Typing Chinese, Japanese and Korean at the command line and in the MTEXT editor, with the candidate window at the caret; vertical text styles drawn and plotted.
  • The clipboard with other programs: Paste Special (as objects, picture or text), copies carry a picture for documents and email, and pasting another program's picture or text works.
  • Everyday commands: OOPS, MULTIPLE, COPYTOLAYER, CUTBASE, DIMCENTER, SOLID, FILL, QTEXT, VPMAX/VPMIN, FILTER, ATTREDEF, DXFIN/DXFOUT, UCSMAN, SETBYLAYER, XPLODE, VPSYNC, ATTIPEDIT; Express Tools IV; MEASUREGEOM Quick.
  • BREAK opens closed polylines, ellipses and splines, and a command that can't act no longer traps what you type next.
  • Undo: one undo undoes an agent's whole batch; a refused command leaves no empty step; redo keeps associative dimensions.
  • 2D drawings from solids (SOLVIEW, SOLDRAW, SOLPROF); 3D Building from Plan puts doors in their openings; ROOMS follows the walls and room tags.
  • A hint when new dimensions or text would be too small to read at the drawing's scale.

Files

  • CADaddy's own DWG reader and writer (R2000 to R2018) alongside the existing one, checked against independent readers; complex linetypes, block descriptions and non-English text now survive DWG 2000/2004.
  • Raster export (PNGOUT, JPGOUT, TIFOUT, BMPOUT) and raster plot devices; IFC export with stacked storeys, openings and stable IDs.
  • Sheet Set Manager II: docked, with custom properties, page setup override, views, callouts and fields; new sheet sets save as .sheetset.json; new layouts get a viewport fitted to the drawing.
  • The Release 12 and multileader save notes now say what actually happened; Save As no longer writes your command history next to exported files.
  • Drawing properties (DWGPROPS) and script tools (SCRIPTCALL, RSCRIPT, DELAY, RESUME); damaged-DWG recovery (RECOVERALL).

Interface

  • Count palette from Tools ▸ Count; MARKUPIMPORT on the Insert ribbon; prompt defaults in your drawing's units; palettes open clear of the ribbon.
  • The first window fits high-DPI screens; drawings open framed above the command line; menu symbols show on Windows.
  • Touch taps pick and place points; Select Color keeps a typed hex value.
  • Interface in Traditional Chinese, Polish, Hungarian and Turkish.
