Bricscad for Linux Alpha 10.3.7 is out

Posted Thursday 18 March 2010 à 0 h 16 by Normand

Bricsys released Tuesday March 16th a new Alpha development version of its Bricscad for Linux software.

The release can be downloaded for testing here.

Notable changes are:

  • Dimensioning should now work
  • Fixed problem with Gradient dialog box
  • Hard-coded accelerator keys (Delete, F1 to F12) now active, but only when drawing window has focus
  • Undo/Redo buttons active in Multiline Text
  • Many more fixes

For a detailed list of changes, check out this annoncement on Bricsys' support forum.

Some interesting info was given on what form the final installer will take. Debian (.deb) and RPM (.rpm) packages will be provided, along with a .tar.gz archive for custom installations. What has not been mentioned is if separate 64-bit packages will be provided.

I believe that with both .deb and .rpm packages, most major Linux distros should be covered; Debian/Ubuntu and derivatives for the former, and Fedora/Mandriva/openSUSE for the latter.
