super! well done.

@plusplus, @fredbrastux
Thanks. I am not programmer, but an engineer. Therefore the program looks useful, but the source code is very bad

Very good! I'm impressed. It's nice to see Lazarus/FPC being used for such "heavy" projects. It shows how versatile Lazarus/FPC is and it will surely spread the word about its capabilities.

Amazing stuff in Lazarus/FPC. Excellent work!

If someone has ideas, suggestions or remarks about ZCAD, please let me know. I implemented everything for my needs, the development process slowed.

Soon I want to implement support DWG format for reading. Based on LIbreDWG source and ODA specifications

   Great job!

  Wow, great work

Thanks.

I got decrypt file dwg2004 and have access to entities. Simple lines import from dwg now works.

 Good work Andrey. Actually, I'll doubt your statement "I'm not a programmer", because a lot of code has been written and it works.

(minor nit: drag a separator line in the objectinspector to the left, outside of program window, and you'll not be able to get it back...)

Thanks.

This lack of Anchordocking package. Unfortunately so far this package a lot of bugs and limitations ((

I added to sources a simple program (cad_source\simplecad\simplecad.lpr) to show how you can use vector editor in your application. Though it is difficult, but I want to fix it.

Hi, I downloaded the source code (svn revison 250), and I tried to compile it, but I got the following error:

gui\oglwindow.pas(4518,221) Error: Incompatible types: got "OGLSPECFUNC.TViewPortArray" expected "GLU.TViewPortArray"

I tried to compile under Lazarus 1.1 SVN 37964 FPC 2.6

Any idea?
