when I want move or copy object like in ACAD2000 - its impossible:
I want select for example LINE, then in ORTHO mode pick point anywhere in workspace, than move mouse in side of moving, write only number of moving (without @...) for examle 5000.... and enter...

now is possible move or copy only from existing poin to existing point (in object) or with direct co-ordinates (@5000,0) - this is very slow !!! please, can you repair this problem? - this is the biggest promlem, which stoppted us in our firm to buy your Intellicad

althought you have good prices

That has worked in some versions and not in others. It works in the version I am using now but it did not in Icad-98 except with Dragmode off.

ferol,

This is a very simple routine that has no doubt been created in Lisp and can be implemented in ICAD.

Search the internet for Lisp routines and i'm sure there will be a lot out there or ask in the AutoLisp forum.

Ferol is right about this misbehavior.
It is the directed distance entry feature
which has been functional in other CADs
for a long time...ie: enter a distance on
the command line and indicate the direction
with your mouse cursor.

Several newer demos of Icad have fixed this
up to work properly now.
