Thanks. Well, it seems when I use the "drag it" tool to move something
just a pinch, the program draws the object in a different place than the
shadow'ed outline says it'll do. I was trying to arrange an equipment rack
layout, and it was maddening…. each time the result was different, but
never right. Sometimes it wouldn't move the object at all. The other
problem – I've found, through experimenting, that if I try to send a
drawing to my plotter directly, parts of the drawing will fall off the edge
of the earth, and the plotter will freak. But if I plot to the
DRAWPLOTDUMP file, then type > par: the file to the plotter thru the CLI,
it works just fine. A timing error or something? The plotter is using the
Centronics parallel interface. The plotter's self-test works fine. I
dunno. Thanks for any help you can offer. -joanne
