AxciScape Program Limitations
Windows
AxciScape requires MS Windows (preferably 7, 8, 8.1 or 10). It will NOT work on RT based laptops or tablets.
It is NOT available for the MAC although I have been informed that the generated AutoCAD scripts produced by a windows tablet will load into AutoCAD running on a MAC.
Printing/Undo
Currently no printing facilities or Undo functions are included.
Printing of data would be carried out by the target program used from export such as AutoCAD, Excel, Notepad etc.
AutoCAD
AxciScape should work with all AutoCAD versions from R14. However, prior to purchase it is essential that you test the script CAD export function with the supplied demo file to ensure CAD plotting is functional.
System Requirements
No information is available with regards to minimum memory requirements on Windows hardware.
Test the software loads and runs and can handle a reasonably large database prior to purchase. See Tablets.
DXF/SHP file Map Import
It is good practice to prepare a DXF (with AutoCAD or similar) prior to loading by first switching off any unnecessary layers, erasing any sections of the drawing which are unnecessary and erasing the paperspace data. Finally explode any blocks.
Having a properly prepared DXF will reduce memory usage and improve display performance.
SPLINES are not yet implemented within this program.
NESTED BLOCKS - Blocks are only exploded to 2 levels.
DIMENSIONS, REGIONS ETC - Are considered trivial for our purposes so are ignored.
CAD DXF Export.
Only Solid hatches are able to be exported as a DXF file.
