Here's the accompanying floppy for Novacad. I haven't dumped my ROM yet but there are already versions elsewhere.

There's also the NOVACAD Plotter Driver Utility disk too

Doesn't appear when *HELP
*CAD to activate (then attempts to load B2 from the disk)
edit: It's version "12TA", identical to the one found here!

Re: Technomatic Novacad
Firstly thanks for archiving this!
Is there anyone who used this back in the day (or anyone who has a few minutes to kill) who can explain to me how to measure a distance? I'm challenging myself to use it to do a few floorplans but cannot seem to measure what I'm drawing. The manual says:
So I click left mouse button (start) then right (draw) move the cursor to the end of where I want the line and click draw (right mouse) again. The line appears. I move the cursor back to the beginning of the line, click start again, move the cursor along the line (via either mouse or keys) while pressing 0 (or O...I've tried both)...which should, if I'm understanding the manual correctly, display the distance at the bottom of the screen...but it doesn't (I've tried real M128 and Beebem).

Code: Select all
At any time while not actually drawing a line, a curve or an icon (see later), pressing the 0 key
will result in the horizontal and vertical displacement between the start point and the current
cursor position being displayed at the bottom of the screen. Mark a start point on the screen
and whilst moving the cursor keys press the 0 key at the same time and you will see the
figures displayed at the bottom of the screen changing.

Re: Technomatic Novacad
Did anyone manage to get Novacad to measure a distance as per the instructions above from the user guide (or otherwise) or is there some kind of problem with this disc/rom image?
