Hi I want to thank everybody for trying to use turbo cad. I still want to learn and live. I had 5 strokes and 4 heart attacks they shocked my heart twice. I am 74 years old next Nov 01. My wife is dead 10 years ago from breast cancer she was 60yo. I got my first stroke in 2015. I take blood thinners. Getting back to the Cad I had trouble seeing the icons but I just learned how to fix them from the comments listed below, it worked perfect for me.Thank you. I know Solidworks and Auto cad from the free classes at the Community college. I am retired now and have 2 diplomas in Mechanical Engineering. Thank you very much for helping me.I have a problem with my screen going into a zoom extents error message my wheel mouse turns too easy for me. I would like a tip to just get a simple screen. Thank you for these tutorials!!

Excellent video. Straight to the point and no unnecessary introductions. I've been using TurboCad since 1991 and I still picked up some useful techniques from this video.I'm ashamed to say that I struggled for all these years using the hard way to revert back to the selector tool when all I had to do is hit the spacebar.

The thing I hate most is that these tutorials constantly use menu options that do not exist on my screen. Sometimes it would be nice to explain how to get these options, like what tool bar are they located in. Right now I'm trying to find the "close" option to close a hatch. Can't find it anywhere.

I'm working my way through this and have run into a couple issues: 1. for those trying to follow this, if you do NOT use the "snap to end of line" when you make the first circle, you will not end up with a polyline that includes the circle: you will end up with a polyline (the open ended rectangle) and a circle. Which means the rest of the tutorial won't work for you. 2. When I add color to my extrusions, I have lighting when it's dark gray but I'm losing lighting when I change color (i.e. there's no shading, it's just all a bright yellow rectangular blob.) How can I reset lighting so I can see the shaded surfaces of the extrusion? This is with Autocad 2019, using Draft Rendering. Yes I get shading in Quality Rendering, but I can't believe that Draft Rendering is so unshaded as to be useless.

I'm using 2015 deluxe so this may be the issue. At 5min30 a triangle is created, the next step is to add a circle. In the displayed image the bottom RHC of the triangle has a cross displayed and after selecting circle when the cursor over to the point where you want to begin the circle a snap appears at the mid point..........this doesn't appear for me. What step, if any, am I missing? Found the problem........I had SNAP turned off in the Inspector Bar

Is there a way of starting with Orthographic drawings and generating Isometric views in Turbocad? I'm using a trial version of 2019, and I'm prepared to use my paper and pencil drafting training, but this tutorial and the software seems to want me to use some half assed computer gaming 3D dev tool way of thinkging instead of using basic engineering drawing tools. With 3 orthographic drawings of a part the software SHOULD be able to generate both Isometric views and output to a 3D printer.

This is a great tutorial but...I am getting so frustrated with TC deluxe as it is HARD to find good tutorials on a lot of issues. Right now, I have an extruded rectangle block and I want to radius the edge, well not in deluxe! So I try to make an arc and use it to slice the corners off, NOT in deluxe! Must be a way and NO, I do not want to round corners before the extrudes as it is not always a good option. I even had engineer at work try it and she said that it sucks not being able to do what I want. If anyone knows a way to do this, please let me know : )

Jan 2021 I have used TurboCAD since the mid 1990's. So sad that their Sales and Support does not seem interested in upgrading users. I have been using a Mac computer for a couple of years. Bought Deluxe v 10 in Jan 2018. Now I have to upgrade to v 12 due to Apple release of Big Sur. TurboCAD says they now have a fix for the software to operate on Big Sur. But Sales and Support are not giving me a price for an upgrade. If you can't get support why buy this software.

Hi Herman. Just to be clear do you mean v10 or TC 2016? If 2016 then yes it should be applicable. If v16 it should still be mildly applicable but v16 is very old. You should contact our sales group to see about upgrade pricing and any specials which include training.

I have version 9 of this terrible software and I was able to eventually figure out workarounds to its many bad design issues. BUT the real issue came up when I merely upgraded my Apple OS to version 10.13.1 and the software stopped working. Just like Ransomware - it demanded a $300 upgrade because of their horrible policies in the company. None of my previous turboCad files can be even accessed because of this. I sincerely hope this company goes out of business. The main software issue (among countless others) was that the PDF export function does not work - the image it exports is not even closely related to what you have on the screen. Then I had to always move the image to my 30 inch monitor and then stretch it and do a screen capture. THen I have to take the screen capture to photoshop and edit it and make the line weights heavy enough to see and add any dimensions or notes and THEN save from photoshop as a PDF. Horrible program and the company is run by even worse management.
