I’ve just upgraded from OS 10.6.8 to OS 10.9.4 in order to keep up with the world, and so I’ve downloaded CADintosh X and started using it.The first thing I notice is that there are no scrollbars on the main drawing window, and the previous facility for scrolling by holding the shift key while clicking and dragging no longer works. This makes it extremely tedious to move around my drawings.Thorsten - please can you tell me if I have failed to notice some way of restoring these 2 important features, or if they will return in the next update?in friendshipRowland: Rowland Carson ... that's Rowland with a 'w' ...: <rowlandcarson@gmail.com> http://www.rowlandcarson.org.uk: Skype, Twitter: rowland_carson Facebook: Rowland Carson: pictures: http://picasaweb.google.com/rowlandcarson

Dear Rowland,do you use a normal Apple Magic mouse? Simple use the sensor area to scroll in all directions.Shift support for the old panning has to be reimplemented.It is on the todo list.Thorsten I’ve just upgraded from OS 10.6.8 to OS 10.9.4 in order to keep up with the world, and so I’ve downloaded CADintosh X and started using it.The first thing I notice is that there are no scrollbars on the main drawing window, and the previous facility for scrolling by holding the shift key while clicking and dragging no longer works.

With large drawings it is essential to have an easy means of moving around.in friendshipRowland: Rowland Carson ... that's Rowland with a 'w' ...: <rowlandcarson@gmail.com> http://www.rowlandcarson.org.uk: Skype, Twitter: rowland_carson Facebook: Rowland Carson: pictures: http://picasaweb.google.com/rowlandcarson

Thorsten,While we are talking about re-implementations, how about using the space bar in place of the comma when entering coordinates. I've spent a few days using both the old and new versions, an cannot believe how quickly I've come to enjoy using the space bar substitute for the comma. It is a much bigger target for my clumsy fingers!Thank you very much,Larry Fagan On Aug 18, 2014, at 8:05 AM, Rowland Carson rowlandcarson@gmail.com [cadintoshmac] wrote:> On 18 Aug 2014, at 14:52, Thorsten Lemke lemke@lemkesoft.de [cadintoshmac] <cadintoshmac@yahoogroups.com> wrote:> >> do you use a normal Apple Magic mouse?

Attachments ear Larry,I found no way to do that with the cocoa text manager, yet.Maybe a solution would be: I just replace the space with a command upon pressing return.Thorsten > Thorsten,> > While we are talking about re-implementations, how about using the space bar in place of the comma when entering coordinates.

Hello,so, I added now the automatic replacement of space with a command after pressing return.Also, I added now command + scroll wheel to scroll left/right (if you do not use a magic mouse).http://www.lemkesoft.org/beta.htmlThorsten > Thorsten,> > While we are talking about re-implementations, how about using the space bar in place of the comma when entering coordinates.

Hello,sorry, typo caused by the automatic spelling correction: space is replaced with a commaThorsten > Hello,> > so, I added now the automatic replacement of space with a command after pressing return.> Also, I added now command + scroll wheel to scroll left/right (if you do not use a magic mouse).> > http://www.lemkesoft.org/beta.html> > Thorsten

Thorsten - will it be possible to reinstate the cycle through Snaps with Tab key, also the reset Base Point function?Best regards,Stan.
