Frequent user requests
----------------------
Question: I have a 2 MB AT and TommySoftware CAD/DRAW doesn't work.
TommySoftware CAD/DRAW requires approx. 1600KB free RAM. Please check Program
Manager, Help, About Program Manager if you have 1.6 MB RAM free. You may
however delete the file TSCADRAW.MPI - this will force TommySoftware CAD/DRAW
to start with minimal memory usage.
___
Question: I have a 2 MB 386SX and TommySoftware CAD/DRAW doesn't work.
Please check if you are running in standard or enhanced mode. If you have not
enough memory you have to run Windows in enhanced mode. Use a permanent
swapfile to get more RAM (see Windows manual).
___
Question: I'm a citizen of a country which is not listed in the start-up
dialog. How can I get an official version of TommySoftware CAD/DRAW?
In the start-up dialog box, choose the entry "- Unlisted Country -". If you
then register, you will be presented an international registration form.
___
Question: I'm working with Windows 3.0 and I tried to use your TASS-software.
This is not possible. TASS (not TommySoftware CAD/DRAW) requires Windows 3.1
or later versions.
If you do not have Windows 3.1, you will have to create and print any request
by means of a standard editor. Send this request to the TommySoftware Support
Center, whose address is stated in the file ADDRESS.TXT within the directory
TSCADRAW\INFOS.
If you have access to CompuServe or Internet, you can mail your requests to
CompuServe: 100273,1143
Internet: 100273.1143@CompuServe.COM
___
Question: I have problems with running TommySoftware CAD/DRAW in my OS/2
Windows Box. What should I do?
Use Windows 3.x. We do not support OS/2 and the OS/2 Windows Box. There is
no intend to fix that problem, because it shows only that the OS/2-Windows Box
isn't really compatible to Windows 3.x. Ask IBM for help.
___
Question: Sometimes TommySoftware CAD/DRAW does not copy all objects to the
Clipboard and sometimes it does not print the whole drawing.
This bug is known in versions 1.05 and older. The bugs however were based on a
bug in Microsoft's Windows. Just order an update from your local distributor.
Make sure to receive the latest version of TommySoftware CAD/DRAW, at least
version 1.11.
___
Question: I've downloaded TommySoftware CAD/DRAW and everything works fine -
with one exception: colors, zoom areas and the symbol-names in the
sample library are in a foreign language.
You've got an old, faulty version of TommySoftware CAD/DRAW. Download the
latest English version of TommySoftware CAD/DRAW.
___
Question: What is the latest version of TommySoftware CAD/DRAW and how to get
an upgrade?
The latest version of TommySoftware CAD/DRAW is version 1.11. If there will
be a new version we will report it through this file. We will make the upgrade
available through your local TommySoftware CAD/DRAW-Partner (see list above).
Ask them for prices.
You will also find TommySoftware CAD/DRAW within most BBS systems and within
CompuServe, "GO GRAPHS", library section 5 ("Paint and draw programs").
___
Question: Are there any limitations of distribution?
There is no limitation for distribution from now on. Everybody may copy the
software freely. See file SHAREWAR.TXT for the terms of Shareware usage.
