Back to TubeCAD Pro

TubeCAD has a new XLS command that allows you to import or export XLS files that contain XYZ centerline data.



Type "XLS" in the command line to show the new Excel window.

TubeCAD's default part folder was changed to depend on the user logged in in Windows (See the next enhancement for details how we now handle paths).

The path will be the "tcadpro" folder inside the "My Documents" folder. All data types are stored in this folder from this version on.

(Note: This folder will be unique for each user login.)

TubeCAD was changed to install once in administrative mode, and then run with any new user login in Windows using the Microsoft data storage methods.

• For IT departments: See How TubeCAD Handles Data Storage for Multiple User Logins for details.

TubeCAD can moves the point labels from on top of the points to outside the diameter automatically.

The direction is always along a vector formed by the bisection of the two adjacent centerlines - toward the outside of the bend.



Because of this new capability, users asked us to allow them to control how far the labels move away from the actual point object.

The automatic distance is always tied to the diameter entered in General Specs. The new command allows you to type a factor (multiplier) that will change the distance by multiplying the factor against the automatic distance generated.

Factor of "1"


Factor of "0.2"
