Zoom Within a Multi Drawing Maintains Current
Command
|
|
In Version 12, the current command is
maintained when Zoom is used within a multi drawing. Previous versions of
SoftPlan would require the command to be selected again.
|
-
In a multi drawing select Item
Erase. The upper left corner will indicate the command that is
currently selected.
-
Zoom to a different location
within the multi drawing.
-
After completing the zoom
command, the Item Erase command will be functional without having
to select it again.

Small Cursor on Very Tight Zoom
|
|
When using the zoom commands to zoom
in on highly magnified area, there comes a point where at a certain zoom
scale, the cursor has difficulty positioning itself on the 1/8” grid
scale. Version 12 automatically switches to the small cursor in this case,
which is a free floating cursor for ease of positioning. Once this scale
is reached, the cursor will change appearance on the drawing screen to a
smaller cursor with no crosshairs displayed. The cursor size is controlled
by the Locate Tolerance ( Tools> Locate Tolerance). By default this is
set at 1.

Zoom is Continuous
|
|
While performing a zoom within
SoftPlan Version 12, in the event that the cursor leaves the drawing
screen, the zoom action will not be canceled. Rather, upon returning the
cursor to the drawing screen the zoom box will pick up with the cursor
allowing for a continuous zooming action. In the past, the zooming action
would have been canceled, forcing the reselection of the zoom
command.

Zoom Blocked from Going Too Small
|
|
Version 12 has improved the Zoom
feature, Zoom In has been blocked from going in too small. This will make
it easier when you are working in a small area on the drawing as the
cursor will move in a smoother, more consistent motion.
