Is there a publication that I can buy that will get me back up to speed on doing 3D drawings? The last 3D work I did was Cadkey 99 back in 2003. I was fairly good at it, but time has deleted some of the knowledge that I embraced many years ago. I am now 81 y/o, but I still have the yen to be...
Can anybody tell me how to square the image on my monitor? I am still using CadKey 99 and it works like a charm, but the image has become oblong and needs squaring. I am running XP Pro. Thank you!
You were dead on with the link. Thank you for solving a problem I have been toiling over for a LONG time. I wish I could have given you a gold star instead of a red one. I really appreciate the time you have put into this. Thanks again, my friend!!
Hey there, Tmoose. Thanks for responding. I would have gotten back to you much sooner, but had an extended stay in the hospital. I had a minor stent implant that turned into a major case of C-diff. NO FUN AT ALL!!! Don't feel by yourself with the vernier calipers...been there, done that! hehehe...
Hey, old friend! The main reason I can't use the entire 27" is because of the CADKEY screen which has all the commands on the left side which is about 1" wide. Also the ribbon across the top of the screen occupies about 1.5" and then across the bottom is another inch. I have tried using the...
Some time ago I inquired about how to square up my drawings so that they aren't distorted. Circles are oval and squares are rectangular. I have tried with minor success to do what Mandrake22 suggested on 11 Jan, 2010, “Tools, Options, Display. Set the "Screen Size" values to equal you screen...
Hey, old friend! Yes, it was a typo, but when I realized it, it was too late to edit. Thank you for the sharp eye!! Good to hear from you, and THANK YOU for catching that! I could have put the wrong dimension in if I hadn't caught it.
Best wishes!

Thank you! Thank you!! This is the second time you have helped me jog my memory. I don't feel like I am 76 years old, but my memory continues to let me know. I'm quite sure that this is the primary reason I don't upgrade to K/C...just too much of the old dog and new tricks. I DID, however try...
I am trying to remember how to use C/K99 to calculate the distance between two points on a circle. The circle is Ø1.16250" and the circumference is 3.625". The two points are located 129.611° apart from each other, so how do I do this and what IS the arc length between the two points? Thank you!

moldcore...thank you for your determination to get me up and running again! :o) I will experiment with your suggestions, but I think I may have done this and got no positive results. I then pulled everything back out and placed them in an empty folder for further study. My fonts are very...
I reloaded CK99 as suggested and now I'm not sure how to reload my .kbd, & .tbr settings, and fonts. I put these and my .prt & .ptn files on a seperate drive and brought them back and placed them in an empty folder I created in the CADKEY folder. The .prt &.ptn files are there and I can access...
You have been more help than you know. I appreciate the time and research you have done to get me back up and running. I would have done something by now, but have had two emergencies in the family (unrelated) in the last 48 hours and haven't been able to think about the computer. One of the...
Thank you, again, moldcore. Yes, I have a legit copy of CK99 with a serial number. Have had it ever since it came out, new. I will create another folder for my data files and transfer everything over to it. I will then uninstall CK99, softboot the computer when finished, and then reload a...
Thank you, moldcore. Yes, I have considered re-installing, but wasn't sure if I would lose my .prt & .ptn files. Will I have to save all my files to another medium? My files all seem to be there, it's just that I can't access them.
Cannot bring in files. Error message stating "Function not presently available" on anything I try to do. Almost as if 99 corrupted. No other data lost, i.e. Word, e-mail, etc... just Cadkey files. I am totally shut down. Thank you for any advice to resurrect program! :o)
How do you generate more colors than the 15 provided in the color pallette in C/K99? I have never had to have more colors than what was provided, but I need about 10 more colors for a special job I'm doing. Thank you!
