The Plot window does not appear.

Walrus Juice — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 10:15:12 GMT

A few days ago, a strange problem arose: when trying to open the print window using a command or button, the program interface freezes, and nothing can be done except press Esc. Restarting the program, restarting the laptop, and creating a new document don't help.

Please tell me if there's anything I can do to fix this problem.

Scales problem

Pier-Luc Cote-Rivard — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 15:44:15 GMT

I want my dimension symboles to adjust according to my viewport. I'm new to NanoCAD. Currently my dimensions symboles are to small. I have this weird scale in the status bar. Maybe it should be M1:1 when I am in model space. I can not switch to symbol and I don't see how to access a list of scales.

Tank-you for your help.

AREA Command

It appears that the AREA command is missing in Nanocad 5. What would be the equivalent command to measure area based on selecting individual points? Thank you.

Drawing Unit

Niam — Sun, 19 Apr 2026 06:34:09 GMT

Hello,

I'm trying to change the dimension unit from milimeters to inches in nanoCAD. I have already set the insertion scale to inches using the UNITS command, but there is no change.

Am I missing something in the setting ?

new user. i want to modify ncad.pgp. found it. in the free version its in Program Files which is a write protected folder. i can unprotect the entire folder and modify the file. I would rather copy it to a different location and change the file path search to find it, like in autocad. but i dont see in
Options Standard Directories there is a folder for that. What is the procedure for changing the ncad.pgp file?
