sPlan Error in German.PNG Hi! I'm getting a constant problem in the background whenever I open sPlan - whenever I open sPlan it is taking a very long time to open and if I hover the mouse cursor over the taskbar "pencil" icon I get a badly corrupted small display where everything is displayed in re...

Hi! Can anyone tell me why sPlan keeps starting in German when I open previously saved drawings? I copied a very large number of SPlan 7 and SPlan 8 Drawings made over many years to one folder in my desktop so I could refer to them any time, but whenever I double–click on any one at all I get "Einze...

Hi! . . .I would like the facility to choose TTF as well as I have several British Stencil Fonts that work out all right on PCBs I have had made with "Number One System's Easy–PC" - Easy PC does not lend itself to tracing a design from magazine artwork like you can with Sprint Layout, I could then u...

If you have Office 2016 or later, you can open a new Word Document, select "Import Picture", import the SVG from sPlan 8 that you previously exported, then you can select "Import Picture" again and import the bitmap, peg or png file you want to add, and then move the imports around to get the layout...

Hi! I wonder if it's possible to add a facility for a Sandy/Stipple filling to shapes and graphic objects? I often need to draw such items as valveholders, rotary wafer switches, tagstrips, Tektronix Ceramic strips on my drawings, and the addition of a Sandy/Stipple filling facility would make these...

Hi! One drawback, which does not appeal, is that "Mirror Horizontal" and "Mirror Vertical" mirrors the text or turns it upside down as well as the symbol, whereas in version 7.0, only the graphic was mirrored? Can you amend that back to the 7.0 behaviour so the text isn't mirrored please? For exampl...

Hi! Could you possibly add a "Sand" style fill to the Hatching/Filling Dialogue please? A "sandy" or "random dot" pattern would be very useful in draughting things like rotary switch wafers, tagboards, tag strips, other items of metalwork in physical layout drawings, etc. Chris Williams Walsall, UK
