Precision Tools

nanoCAD, as with other CAD systems, allows precise geometric creations (up to 14 decimals).

Using precision tools allows:

·         quick implementations during the project,

·         elimination of errors and inaccuracies in the dimensioning,

·         elimination of errors in the measurements of angles, length and distances, which were not dimensioned in the drawing,

·         avoiding problems occurring with hatch, due to open contour,

·         reducing time spent on the control programs for NC machines (because it is not necessary to edit inaccurate geometry of the parts) etc.

nanoCAD provides precise geometric creations in two ways:

·         precise coordinates of object points and

·         using precision modes.

Precision modes allow:

·         place points on the rectangular grid (SNAP, GRID modes);

·         use object snaps to snap to characteristic points on the vector and raster objects, for example to the endpoints of a line or to circle center (OSNAP mode);

·         the use of tracking lines to place a created object in relation to other objects (OTRACK mode);

·         snap to specified angles and define distances using polar tracking (POLAR mode);

·         create and replace objects parallel or perpendicular to coordinate axes (ORTHO mode).
