Hello,

I purchased this software to draw kitchen cabinet elevations. Some cabinet runs are over 12 feet wide. It would be much easier to layout the cabinets if there was a to scale ruler on the vertical and horizontal grid I have set up.


Thank you, David H

You can make up a start file. So every new part started will load the scales.

Draw out the scale you need in a file

save as to desktop 'startup.dat' as the file name

Move the file to
C:\Program Files\Punch! Software\SharkCAD 12 (sharkcad 12 will show as whatever version you have installed)

now start up the software and it'll load that default file. I have one set up full of renamed layers and things, just makes it easier

Thank you, I will give it a try. Hopefully this will make it possible to create drawings the same way as my old QuickCad software.
