Updates posted

CG 9.0.4 (Stand alone) and CG 18.0.4 (for AutoCAD) have been posted to the Carlson Software download page.

I got CG 9.0.4 yesterday. I installed this morning.

I found a slight issue with the install routine.

Running the exe file unzips the installation files into a folder called "CG 9 Install Package".

From there I tried the Update.bat version. This usually works and does not reinstall the entire program it is designed to only update files needing updating.

The version I had downloaded didn't work for me.

After that, I went ahead and ran "setup.exe". That worked fine.

CG Class Scheduled near Greenville NC

I will be going to Greenville NC to teach a class for the Eastern Chapter of NCSS. Below is the announcement. There is one thing to note. This class may (or may not) be using the Intellicad version of CG Survey.

The newest version (the one built on the Intellicad engine) has not yet been released. If it is not released in the next several days, I many not be prepared to teach the class using that product. Also a possibility, we may not be able to get the lab set up and ready to use that product.

Either way, I'm sure this will be a good class. Also note that this class is limited to Eastern Chapter members only until June 4th. After that, get in touch with Bryant Hardison (252) 943-8185.

Creating a 3D Image

I am testing a new way of sharing information with other C&G users. I hope you will understand if I don't get this perfectly right the first time.

This is an attempt to link to a presentation on how to create a 3D Image in C&G and then get that image into a form you can share with clients.
