I want to draw points (circle shape) that are filled with a solid color (black) to make them more visible. Is there a way to do this? Alternately, can the border line weight be increased? (I can click on a point and set its line weight (e.g., 2 mm) but nothing happens in the drawing.)

Thanks,
Don C.

Hello,
make a block with hatch (solid) and center point for insert.
The line weigth is not possible for the point object.

Best regards

1. In addition to pguimber's post, you can use small circle (0.001 radius, for example) with 0.5-2 mm lineweight. It will look like disk(?), not like circle.
2. In NC 20 there's a DONUT command - if you set inner radius to 0, you can get any size disk.
3. 3rd method is using SHX shapes. Use SHAPE command and look for filled circle there. If nothing there, download shx shapes and put them into SHX directory C:\ProgramData\Nanosoft\nanoCAD 5.1\SHX\ (mau be different on your system). Unpack it first.
