Recently installed this on a new laptop, and I've two issues that I can't figure out.

The first is that when I inverse, it's giving me distances to nearest foot.?ÿ I type, UNITS, and it's set for 0.000', so I don't know why it's giving it at 0'

When I have the laptop connected to a monitor, everything looks fine.?ÿ When I'm just using the laptop, the rw5 editor has everything really small, so that I can hardly read it.?ÿ If I drag the window to make it bigger, the used area stays the same.?ÿ It'd be nice to be able to get this so I can read it more easily.?ÿ Everything else looks fine, and the right size, in Carlson and other programs.

One more thing, I guess.?ÿ Even if I save down to a 2013 drawing, and I can open up in C3D or Carlson 2015, I can't re-save it, since it was created by a newer version.?ÿ That seems like BS to me, that you can't save back to something that someone with a prior version can use.

Another thing, even though I'm using a pgp file, it's not using the Carlson command for line, 2DL, but instead using the ACAD command.?ÿ Same for the polyline, PL command.

I guess that was four things.

For the first thing, type the INVERSE command, then the letter "O" as in Options.?ÿ You should then see the Inverse Options dialog - set the desired resolution in the "Distance Decimals" field.

The text size is a screen resolution issue, with new laptops, they are usually configured for the highest resolution possible, bump it down to 1920x1080 and see if that helps.?ÿ As fas as the commands go, look at the quick keys in carlson. 2dp is carlson's polyline routine, l is line.?ÿ You can edit that quick key to suit your needs. I have no problem saving down to an earlier version with Intellicad, I take it you are running on top of Autocad.?ÿ Use the exporttoautocad20xx to save to lower versions.

I'm not sure if it's the resolution setting.?ÿ As said, everything else on my laptop, whether it's connected to a monitor or alone, looks correct.?ÿ The only thing that's messed up is the rw5 editor, and some of the icons in the windows that open through Carlson.

I don't think that Carlson with ACAD has Quick Keys, believe that's an ICAD thing.?ÿ Thanks

I don't know if you can tell?ÿ by this image, but the icons are pretty small, and smaller than they should be.

I don't know if the raw data editor size can be adjusted. I would like to know if it could be. It would be nice if it could be made bigger.
