Dds Draftsight For Mac Not Working
DraftSight is a professional-grade, open 2D CAD product for users who want a better way to create, edit and view DWG files. DraftSight is easy to use and is. Welcome to DraftSight a valuable tool for any AEC professional! DraftSight is more than a free, professional-grade 2D CAD product. The product runs on Microsoft® Windows 7®, Windows Vista®, Windows® XP, Mac® and Linux® and takes just a few minutes to download at DraftSight.com. With its layering functionality and the ability to specify.
Take it as read we use LabVIEW, but what other tools do we like. Here's a list of tools we use. TortoiseSVN Wonderful Subversion version control client. Always use version control on your projects!!!! We like this because it's nice and easy. And it's free free free. Codespaces This is a paid cloud based project management and SVN repository and it is just awesome!!!
Links seamlessly with TortoiseSVN, just type in URL of repository, can set up a portal so that customers can report bugs and has nice easy project management tools. Super fast Check Out and updates, incredible compression (25 active projects and only 210Mb used), back-ups every 5 minutes. Other cloud based repository's are available but this one has been a joy to use. We pay $299 a year for 4 users and 2G of space. Notepad I love this little text editor. LibreOffice I have to say I've rather given up on Microsoft Office, I just find all the updates and licensing to be annoying. I used Open Office for years but found that it didn't copy and paste Vector graphics into LabVIEW.
LibreOffice spun out of OpenOffice and it does. Draftsite Sometimes we do proper engineering with drawings and everything. 2D CAD packages can be quite expensive or you could download a free/cheap one that had a ropey interface, crashes regularly and is incompatible with anything else. So imagine my surprise when I came across this little beauty. All yours for $0 sacre bleu c'est incroyable!! (it's from Dessault) Klok Right you cotton-headed-ninny-muggins do your time-sheet and no you can't put reading this as research!!!
But you could use this lovely little application to do it for you. Click on a project to start it recording, or drag and drop to suit. Single user is free and very handy it is too. You'll need Adobe Air (whatever that is) to run it. Databases I like SQLite for small and portable and like MySQL for big and complex. The hidden gem in MySQL is the Workbench tool that ships with it.
Virtualisation Run another Operating system in a window on your computer, it sounds like madness. Very handy for loading old versions of LabVIEW and debugging old versions of code. I don't find it so useful for initial designs when you're wrestling with everything not working. So what do you use and why? Much Love and enjoy NIWeek if you are going, I'm very jealous.
What - no TestStand!? LIbreOffice eh? We've just upgraded to Office 365 (and Office 2013) and I have to say it sucks more than the previous releases ever sucked! I might just look into this LibreOffice.
I use Virtualisation (also VirtualBox) everywhere. Each LabVIEW installation is inside it's own VB, and I can create snapshots to make sure I can revert should something go horribly wrong, and linked clones for each project to keep them all isolated.
And given hibernation on my actual laptop causes terrible blue screen issues, it's a breeze to Pause and Save the State of a virtual environment. Comes back up in seconds too. We use MTS Timesheet for clocking - not great, nor free, but it is cheap and we're kinda stuck with it now. We're also trialling a cloud-based project management tool called LiquidPlanner - will be interesting to see how that pans out. Thanks for the tips Steve.
I like XML Notepad for when I have to go over large XML files, it lets you expand/collapse the different XML tags and eventhough it is distributed by Microsoft, it is actually free: A nice tool for SVN that I saw demonstrated during the CLA Summit is the TSVN Toolkit from Viewpoint Systems. Nancy did a nice article about it: I have also started using Mercurial (Hg) for some projects and I am liking Distributed Source Code Control more and more. However I find that the learning curve for some customers (who want to be able to maintain the code after I leave) is a lot steeper with Hg that it is with SVN. For virtualization I use Virtual Box and VMware. I have found that VMware plays nicer with hardware.
For tracking time we use it is free for a single user and it helps creating invoices and managing retainers. I think the only cathegory your list is missing is bug/task tracking software.
I have used both and I think for larger projects these tools can be very handy. Overtime they can also become knowledge bases where when the customer calls months after the project has released with an error, you can search your list of bugs to see if you came across that problem during development and how it was fixed. Both of these tools can connect with your Source Code Control client so you can add links in your commits to the bug you are fixing.
Now, one has to be careful, because any tool can go from useful to being a drag like you said and becoming too much project management. Thanks again and we will miss you at NI Week.
