Hello All! I am designing my first frame with this program. I have the lugs that I would like to use, and am having a hard time figuring out how to adjust the DT to ST angle (61°), ST to CS (67°), and CS to CS (10°). I see they are listed in light grey color on the 'Frame Details' page. Would someone be able to explain a little bit about this process? Also, any additional resources or 'how to's' about this program would be helpful. Many thanks, Vincent

Hi, I just installed Rattle CAD 4.0, windows 64. The program is not accepting provided license.
Hi I did some updates and starts testing now! lets see if can make it run on my Fedora 30 Manfred Am 21.10.2019 um 19:02 schrieb Michael Woon: Hi Manfred, any progress?

It seems I spoke too soon! I just rebooted and everything works fine (go figure) So it seems that simply unsetting those variables fixed everything. Perhaps getting rattleCAD to play along with them might be a thing to do, but for the moment, I'm happy!
Hi Manfred, any progress? This might give you a clue (I'm not actually sure what to make of it): Fedora 28 didn't automatically have BASH_FUNC__module_raw%% et al automatically exported to the environment (from god knows where, it seems to be a thing people are unhappy about: https://access.redhat.com/discussions/4124031), and runs rattleCAD just fine.

I'm really not sure, my understanding of environments doesn't run so deep, and as usual, bash is written in a way that's very dense and hard to read. I did notice that Martin's (from the Mozilla bug report) BASH_FUNC__module_raw%% is slightly different from mine. For the most part, it's just the order of some unsets changed (I'm not sure what that does / what difference it makes, but there's a section where both the logic and commands are different (lines 36-40)...
I hink you are close to it. ... outside the topic: do you what BASH_FUNC__module_raw%% is for? Manfred
Hi Manfred, of course that's okay! Thanks so much for the quick reply, I wasn't even expecting it so soon. In case this helps, this function is supposed to be available in the environment: BASH_FUNC__module_raw%%=() { unset _mlshdbg; if [ "${MODULES_SILENT_SHELL_DEBUG:-0}" = '1' ]; then case "$-" in *v*x*) set +vx; _mlshdbg='vx' ;; *v*) set +v; _mlshdbg='v' ;; *x*) set +x; _mlshdbg='x' ;; *) _mlshdbg='' ;; esac; fi; unset _mlre _mlIFS; if [ -n "${IFS+x}" ]; then _mlIFS=$IFS; fi; IFS=' '; for _mlv...
Hi, I found a similar known problem for mozilla https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1454339 I have to dive into it this will be fixed in the next version coming the next days. Is this OK for you? Manfred
Hi Michael, rattleCAD 4.0 has required batteries included, so there is no need to install any additional tcl stuff. however: As I could see, the problem is located in a procedure that cares about the shell environment. I fear I have to test it specifically on a Fedore Linux too. If you type in your command shell: env can you post the output? do you get any string with the name BASH_FUNC__module_raw or %%? Manfred

Hi Manfred, I've finished designing the frame, great program, I love the result! I would now need to print a 1:1 page scale for the frame builder. When I try to 'export PDF', all the pages are shuffled from 'Base Geometry' to 'Frame Jig' but I cannot seem to find any created files in the 'PDF' directory. Am I missing something here? Is ghostscript not needed any more as you mentioned further above? Another question regarding printing: is there a way to adjust page scale for the frame jig? I've only...
rattleCAD 4.0.14 shortened the distance from 28.58mm (what is on my printout and what I cut to, different from the example I posted, though the same frame) to 26.7mm, a 1.89mm difference and about what would easily fit a 1/16" filler rod, which is what I used to estimate the gap. Thank you.
Here is the file. I am about to try 4.0.14.
Hi Fletcher, pleaseprovide me your project file to rebuild the situation. does this failure also occur with rattleCAD 4.0.14? thanks, Manfred
In the workshop drawing there are numbers that seem to indicate the distance from the ends of the downtubes and seatubes to the farthest part of the notches where they meet. I used the downtube value and my notch left a ~2mm gap between the downtube and seattube, on two different tubes. I'm wondering what these numbers are and where they come from. In the image I've indicated the value I used and the tube junction where I had the gap. I'm using RattleCad 4.0.06 win64.exe Thank you, Fletcher [image:...

Hello, rattleCAD looks very fine but how can i install or use rattlecad 3.6 in Windows? I would like to test the 3.6. An exe for 3.6 does not seem to be available yet. I have no experience with kit or tcl files. I think a manual would help a lot of people. How do I get this version up and running in Windows? Thank you and have a nice bike :-)

Hi there. I am getting an error message every time I try to upload an .svg file of my logo into rattlecad. Is this something that can be done? If so, what am I doing wrong. I am using the latest version of Rattlecad. Thanks. Pietro
Many thanks Manfred. It's clear now.
it depends on the pivot center of the saddle. this could only be determined by the technical specification of the seatpost ... if available ... ... in the one bolt-image it will be close to zero ... but I am not sure ... from my experience the technical specifications are not really satisfying ... :( in the attached image the centerline of the saddle rail does not go through pivot position of the seatpost (blue circle)
Thank you, so in the case of the one-bolt image, the Seatpost pivot offset should be zero?

HI I have the same issue as GS Astuto but I am not a programmer and can't follow how you guys resolved it! How do you install a 'kit' file in windows 10?
it is all about the blue coloured point in the last image
it is all about the blue colourd point in the last image
it is to handle different types of seatposts: as you can see, there is a parameter missing for the 2 bolt seatpost
it is to handle different types of seatposts:
Following a bit more investigation, I have discovered that the second 40mm parameter is called "Seatpost pivot offset" - can you explain this parameter? That will answer my question. Many thanks,
Hi, When I am setting up the saddle position on the base geometry tab, there is a number that I don't understand. Have a look at the attached image - there is a grey number 13.34 just below the saddle, which seems to be dependand on the saddle setback (25mm in this case) - what does this number mean Also - there are two distances of 40mm from the top of the saddle - what does the lower distance represent? Also - am I correct to assume that the saddle /offset_x parameter (in the saddle parameter -022...
