Re: Convert to freeform

Still the same situation Jeff.

Can’t speak to Arcad as I don’t have the tool available to me - but Linoma does the actual conversion of the selected block on the host using the Toolbox. Fast - but you need to be connected. I suspect Arcad is the same - actually I’m not sure if they can do selected blocks or only work on a complete source.

Craig Rutledge has updated his free-form conversion tools so maybe the iSphere guys will adopt those and add a conversion option?

RDi has long converted C specs to freeform. I highlighted some D specs,
right-clicked, and saw the "Convert selection to Free-Form." Alright! I
thought, just what I want.

However...it doesn't. Found a thread from a couple of years ago where the
only available ones were pay versions from Arcad and Linoma.

That still true? Does either do it within the RDi editor? I'd rather do
'chunks' of H, F, and D specs than an entire member. I'd like to look at
the before and after of my own code to learn it better. The vast majority
of my C specs are already freeform.

I don't write much new code these days, but do a lot of maintenance.

Thanks.
