GGU-LATPILE: "Mini-CAD toolbar" and "Header toolbar" menu items

Using this menu item you can add free text, lines, circles, polygons and images (e.g. files in formats BMP, JPG, PSP, TIF, etc.) to the main program graphics. PDF files can also be imported as images. A pop-up menu opens, the icons and functions used are described in more detail in the Mini-CAD manual saved in the “C:\Program Files (x86)\GGU-Software\ Manuals” folder during installation.The differences between the Mini-CAD and Header CAD are as follows:

  • Drawing objects created with Mini-CAD refer to the coordinate system (generally in [m]) in which the drawing is created and are displayed accordingly. You should therefore select this menu item if you wish to enter additional information on the system. These objects can be saved in a “.mcd” file using the grafik-20240807-082843.png icon in the pop-up menu and loaded as such in other GGU programs using the grafik-20240807-082916.png icon in the pop-up menu.

  • Drawing objects created with the Header CAD refer to the sheet format (in [mm]). They therefore always remain at the same sheet position, regardless of the coordinate system of the measuring points. You should select this menu item if you want to enter general information on the drawing (e.g. company logo, report number, system number, stamp). If you save this so-called header data in a “.kpf” file using the icon grafik-20240807-082843.png in the pop-up menu, you can reload this header data for a completely different system (with different system coordinates) and also in other GGU programs using the icon grafik-20240807-082916.png in the pop-up menu. The saved header data can then be found in the same position. This considerably simplifies the creation of general sheet information.
