      Yes, I know, why don't I go to TurboCAD webs site. I did and I can get more info from my neighbor's dog. One of the most worthless help sites I have ever encountered.

      Lately, TurboCAD 19 has started adding text and dimensions backwards, or upside down and backwards. Been to the help file, nothing, did a Google Search nothing. I was just hoping someone here uses TC 19. Never had this problem with 18, however, once I get the problem, going back to 18 the problem still exist.

      There are a lot of 4 letter words I could use right now, so lets just say, they gotten the last of my money. I am spending to much time trying to get program to function.

      Note, it does't seem to be a driver problem, because I can open a new file and it well add text correctly.

      And to add to the frustration, it will go away for a while then come back. Also, Double CAD has the same problem with the DWG copy of this file.

      Frustrated with a dead line up coming.

      Thanks in advance

        ๐Ÿ˜† Good to see you got things sorted out Ken. Is the TurboCad help site that bad? Folks here don't know how lucky they are ๐Ÿ˜’

          Well, Mike, I haven't been able to find a web site to help me with TubroCAD. As I upgrade, I don't get an up to date hardback manual. And the old hard back manual I have, has Deluxe and pro information and is not much help.

          Yes, I visit this site each day that I am working. There is a lot of good info and not just on Sketchup.

          Sometimes, I wish to give answer, but the Sketchup genius, are fast. I guess you could call some of the personal residing in this forum as Sketchup First Responders(SFR). You can tell a SFR by his attempts at orbiting every web page.

          I know my problem doesn't have much to do about Sketchup unless you use TubroCAD or Double CAD, but I just thought any info concerning Sketchup could be helpful.

          And to compliment this forum, I now earn my living just using Sketchup. This wouldn't have happen, or I wouldn't be as successful using Sketchup without this forum. And a big kudos to the plugin creators.

          Thanks

          OK, back to work.

                  Ok, found the problem. It has something to do with DWG's group/blocks coming into TurboCAD. After I exploded all the blocks the problem went away. To explode some of the blocks, I had to import the DWG blocks into Sketchup, than explode, than export as DWG, and then re-insert into TurboCAD DWG file format. A royal pain.

                  I only put this into a Sketchup forum, because I use TurboCAD with Sketchup and I believe there must be others that use TurboCAD to work with DWG drawing.

                  To those who think this is an advertisement for TurboCAD, I won't be buying the updates again. Getting to buggy for me and zero help in their help file or online.

                  This may be closed. Hope it helps someone. Had a long night to finish what should have been a couple of hours work.

                    Interesting that subsequent headings in each reply do not update. Re: Tubro vs Turbo

                    EDIT: That is, until my reply. Now, this really is a curiosity.

                    I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                      I have Double-CAD, but rarely use it. Didn't try the file on Double-CAD, just believe that Double-CAD is a subset of TurboCAD and could have the same problem. Didn't mean to imply that Double-CAD did have the problem.

                      Files been corrected.

                      Thanks for the offer.
