GemCad 3.92 Command Summary a angle: set the angle of a new facet b blink: recompute the facet surrounding the cursor c center the current view about the cursor d draw the stone again, discard set points e edge: set a point of a new facet on the edge of an old facet nearest cursor f facet: set a point of a new facet on the interior of an old facet at cursor g gear: change the index gear h help: print out help for next command instead of doing next command i index: set the index of a new facet j jam: set the index of a new facet to that of the facet surrounding the cursor k kill the facet surrounding the cursor l list cutting schedule of angles and indexes to screen m meet: set a point of a new facet at the existing meet point nearest cursor n name (label) the facet surrounding the cursor p pierce: set a point of a new facet where the cursor pierces the zero plane q query user for x, y, and z coordinates of a point of a new facet r rotate/tilt the stone; will prompt for what fraction of a revolution s save the project as a binary file with the existing project name t time-lapse, turn time-lapse on/off u undo the last command which changed the stone v vector: display distance, angle and index of line joining last two points w waytwace: trace a light ray from cursor into stone and back out of stone x xfer: transfer the stone y sYmmetry: change the degree of radial sym. and whether mirror-image sym. z zoom in on the view surrounding the cursor or zoom back out again A Angle: get angle of facet surrounding cursor and set it for a new facet B blink: recompute a tier of facets, one of which surrounds cursor C change the facet surrounding by the cursor: next new facet will replace it D demo: demonstrate GemCad by repeatedly cutting the current design E export project as a Long & Steele GDP3DA format file I index of refraction: change it and print the critical angle K kill a tier of facets, one of which surrounds cursor L list cutting schedule of angles and indexes to a file M iMport project from a Long & Steele GDP3DA format file N new cut: TRASHES EXISTING PROJECT O open an existing project: read from a binary file P playback: recut the current design Q quit R read a project from a text file (such as made by the W command) S save the project as a binary file with a new project name T tangent ratio scale top or bottom keying off of facet surrounding cursor V vector: set the unit distance for the v command W write the project as a text file X scale the stone: change angles, shrink, enlarge, stretch, etc. Z set a point where the facet surrounding the cursor meets the dop (z) axis ! Escape to DOS; will prompt for a one-line DOS command - construction line: 1st time starts at cursor, 2nd time draws to cursor F10 Screen dump to IBM ProPrinter or Hewlett-Packard 'Jet printer on LPT1 SPACEBAR draw crosshairs intersecting at cursor Mouse Buttons: LEFT CENTER RIGHT Graphics: m (meet pt.) f (pt. on facet) e (pt. on edge) Text: y Backspace Enter
