Mini-CAD: Mini-CAD and Header CAD

An integrated CAD system is included in all GGU programs, allowing your GGU program graphics to be supplemented with texts, characters or graphics objects.

In some GGU applications you can choose between "Mini-CAD" and "Header CAD" functions. These two CAD systems can be thus differentiated:

• Drawing objects created with "Mini-CAD" are with reference to the drawing coordinate system (generally in [m]) and are displayed and positioned accordingly. You should therefore only select this menu item if you need to add additional information to the system, e.g. a footing base.

• Drawing objects created with "Header CAD" are with reference to the page format (in [mm]). They therefore always remain at the same position on the page, regardless of the coordinates of the system. You should always use this menu item when entering general information (e.g. company logo, report number, appendix number, stamp). When you save these so-called header data, they can be reloaded into a completely different system (with different system coordinates). This header data will therefore always appear at the same position, even in another GGU program. This greatly simplifies the generation of general page information.
