Category: Improvements Group: R38 Status: Open Resolution: Accepted Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: carlopav (carlopav) Assigned to: Matteo Boscolo (matteoboscolo) Summary: R38 ORTHOGONAL Initial Comment: Having the possibility to insert coordinates in orthogonal mode (or something like autocad polar traking) just moving the mouse in the presetted direction (with the possibility to select increment angle (90 or 45 or 30 for example)) and typing the distance is a major issue i think. carlo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: carlopav (carlopav) Date: 2010-09-02 22:00 Message: good, i think i can build a tutorial for the interface when a beta will be released. anyway i think we can keep the "h" - "v" keys mode but i'm sure autocad users find really intuitive (and that's probably the only intuitive thing in autocad) to just point the direction with mouse and typing the distance. regards carlo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Matteo Boscolo (matteoboscolo) Date: 2010-09-02 08:14 Message: >for example in current alpha 3 how can i remove orizontal and vertical >mode once pressed "h" or "v". workaround is: just typing the esc command key but doing so you reset the command. Doing so you are forced to retype the command again. I fix this issue in my developer release in this way: each keyboard key you press it will reset the force direction (esc will still cancel the active command ). I will add an input box or other smart input system for the angle constraint in witch the user can type the angle. I think that having the H V keyboard key is very fast, I do not want to delete this functionality. Let me know if you have any different idea for this functionality Regards, Matteo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: carlopav (carlopav) Date: 2010-09-01 22:48 Message: good, but i think we must go further, for example in current alpha 3 how can i remove orizontal and vertical mode once pressed "h" or "v". i think we should switch to a more autocad (or archimedes) like input for this function. carlo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Matteo Boscolo (matteoboscolo) Date: 2010-08-25 10:00 Message: hi in the actual git version there is already a support for the horizontal and vertical direction. You just need to type the h (horizontal) or v (vertical) to force the direction of a line . For segment: Click on segment command, Click a point in the drawing area Type H Click the second point I'm still working on that to improve this functionality.
