With the complete installation file for IronCAD DCS coming from Solidmakarna, a number of additional and very useful catalogs are included, in addition to those opened by default. Follow the instructions below to access these.
Click the Open button above the directory window:
Navigate to: C:\Program Files\IronCAD\*version*\AppData\en-us\Catalogs\Scene
Then select the catalog or catalogs ([Ctrl] + left mouse button to select several at once) you want to load and press Open.
The same as above also applies to the 2D drawing.
Click the Open button above the directory window:
Navigate to: C:\Program Files\IronCAD\*version*\AppData\en-us\Catalogs\Drawing
Then select the catalog or catalogs ([Ctrl] + left mouse button to select several at once) you want to load and press Open.
For example, the \Drawing folder contains the directory Annotations. The symbols shown there can be easily dragged and dropped onto the drawing, like the edge lines of models in the views.
It is also possible to drag different kinds of drawing symbols back to a catalog. Grab a weld or shape and position symbol and drop it into the catalog. The icon in the directory matches the tool icon by default, but can be replaced with your own home-made *.ico files if you wish.
The idea is to speed up the placement of these drawing symbols. More developments in this area are in the pipeline, including larger icons.
