I am trying to create a spline tangent to two curves and passing through 3 points. Having selected the three spline points I hit enter to select the start tangent, so I bring the spline up along the upper radius until the intelligent thing reads tangent and there I click enter then proceed to...

Thanks!

OK, I'll check it out. I know you can specify the sheet size when you export a PDF but this didn't change the paper size in the sheet view.

I'm just getting started with DS. I'll look through the help files again on creating text. Adding a note was simple enough but I didn't see anything about having the note follow a curve.

Really? That sucks [thumbsdown] I thought maybe I had accidentally tripped some switch on DS and it was messing me up. Thanks tr1ntx.

I have a center point up and away from a point on a diagonal line but for some reason I can't get the circle to pass through the point on the diagonal line it keeps drawing the circle tangent to the diagonal line. [evil]

Is it possible to have text follow a curved line if so how?

tr1ntx, Do you mean change the printer paper size of my desktop printer?

As you say, the first and last spline points always pass through the given points but how do I get the spline to pass through all the given points? In my situation the spline doesn't always pass through the given points in the middle of the first and last. When I view the spline after I am done...

You are using the "LIST" command. I was using the spline icon are they not the same? Are you saying the units precision needs to be higher?

When creating a spline and you want the spline to pass through each point exactly do you need to specify the tolerance with each point? The default is 0.0000; Isn't there a means to set this up in the options? I want to make sure my spline passes through each point exactly and I have noticed on...

Is there away to specify the length and spaces in a hidden line or create your own?

Thanks! That fixed it.

Thanks! I also see where I can adjust the view port dimensions but what about the white paper border? If I increase the view port size should the white paper underneath adjust to fit?

If I change the "Scale Factor" of my drawing to 1:2 under Format>Dimension Style>Linear Dimension, a dimension of 44 inches is now displayed as 22 inches but if I take my measure tool and verify that the dimension is 22 inches, the measure tool will return 44 which indicates to me that I really...

When I export Sheet 1 to a pdf all of my dashed lines in the pdf appear like half inch long line with 1/4 inch spaces. Is there anyway to have the dashed line export to the same size as shown in the model view?

If I replace the dimension text from 1.625 to 1.625 TYP how do I do a carriage return so I can write 1.625 TYP 4 PLACES How do I do this in the property manager?

Thanks! I must have turned it on by accident.

I'm using Draftsight v1r4, WIN XP SP3. Something happened in the last few minutes and for some reason I can't draw a line at an angle, any angle. It seems fixed so that I can only draw horizontal or vertical. What's going on? Is there a setting to undo this?
