Title: Support new version of BricsCAD
Post by: matthew ma on December 15, 2017, 07:39:03 AM
Dear Sir,

Do you will updated the BricsTurn to support the new version of BricsCAD.

Thx!

Yes, probably I will do that. I'll look into it as soon I have some time left.

I've tested current version of BricsTurn (Build 1.0.23) on the new version of BricsCAD (V18) and it works as designed.

Lars -

I have installed BricsTurn and am using BricsCAD V18 (Version 18.2.20 (x64) revision 55961), however when I enter "Bricscad V18" in the Cad Settings (manually typing it) I get the error "BricsCad is not running, or wrong version!"  I made sure that BricsCAD was running before I loaded BricsTurn.  What should I be entering for BricsTurn to recognize that BricsCAD is running?

Try to uninstall and run the installation as administrator (right click on the installation exe or msi). Then run BricksTurn and also BricsCAD as administrator.

Thanks Lars - I already installed and am running BricsCAD as administrator but had not done it for BricsTurn.  I'll report back after I try that.

Hi Lars -

Nope - made no difference.  Both BricsCAD and BricsTurn run as administrator; started BricsCAD first then fired up BricsTurn, drew a Pline in BC then made sure BricsCad V18 was shown in the BT Cad Settings, then chose "Execute".  That is when it gives me the "not running" error still.

Is there something else I need to look at, or is there a different name I should use in the Cad Settings for BC?

Did you uninstall BricsTurn and then reinstall it as administrator? The problem you have is due administration rights.

Yes, I uninstalled it, then marked the installer to be run as an administrator, and after it was installed I changed the shortcut to be run as an administrator as well.

Check if you have several instances of BricsCad running.

I only have one instance of BricsCAD running - not multiple.

I'll download a trial and see if I can do anything about it. BTW have you testes to use the setting for BricsCAD V10?

I've tried all settings.  I'm at a loss.

I've tested with BricsCAD V19 64 bit and it works.

You need to run BricsTurn as administrator.
In BricsTurn Settings you use either "Bricscad V10" or "Bricscad V11" it  doesn't matter all BricsCAD version above V10 seems to work. Then start BricsCAD as administrator (right click and select Run as Administrator)
