Updated user manual in the new version of nanoCAD

We are actively preparing for the release of the new version of the free base CAD platform nanoCAD. If we are interested in the fate of the project, we will be a little intrigued and for a start we will tell you what is new in the User Guide. Due to numerous requests from users, nanoCAD has significantly redesigned both the Guide itself and the reference material in the program. As a result, the size of the User Guide has increased almost 1.5 times! But the main thing is that the User Guide has become much more complete, the information and graphics have been brought in line with the new version, they have been significantly expanded and expanded.

In the new Guide, we tried to structure the information so that users could independently master nanoCAD - without having to ask a lot of standard questions. The manual will be useful both for those who are just starting to study CAD programs, and for “advanced” users.

In accordance with the development of the program, existing sections were reworked, a lot of new information was added. So, for example, shows how to invoke commands as a computer mouse, and from the keyboard, given the Russian and English commands and their abbreviations.

If necessary, a typical sequence of actions is given. Thus, the new User Guide will help you learn how to work with the program in the shortest possible way.

Significantly improved section Sizes. Many users like the convenience of working with sizes in nanoCAD, but the information in the old version of the help was too concise and incomplete. Now you can use the dimensioning commands as conveniently as possible by reviewing examples of their use.

We hope that the new documentation will be useful to users and will help in the shortest time to master nanoCAD . The manual will appear along with the next version of the platform. And if you have any wishes for the program itself and for the reference material, go to the forum and write us!
