# "Not opened for read" error
I just downloaded and installed the program. I am using the trial license. I opened a .dwg file that I created in AutoCAD Map 3D 2011 (basically an AutoCAD 2011 file). When I attempt to do anything I get errors. Trying to use the offset command (typed or from the icon) I get "Not opened for read" and I am returned to a blank Command: line. I get the same error when I click the polyline icon to draw a polyline. Lots of other commands produce this same error.
Then I try the copy command (from the icon) and select objects to be copied, but when I click the right mouse button to finish the selection I get "Invalid input." Interestingly, I can use the multiline command.
I'm wondering if the trial is actually that limited? It's pretty difficult to the program if I can't draw or edit much of anything.

# I am trying to convert over to LINUX from Windows and wonder if a LINUX version will be available? I have tried using Wine to run ActCAD on LINUX Ubuntu but it doesn't seem to work (would appreciate any help with this).
If ActCAD could be able to be installed to run in LINUX via the Wine Emmulator, that would be a great help.

# How can I get some of my old lisp routines to work. They don't work well with ActCAD.
I paid for a program to have developed for me that sets grades and elevations, similar to what Civil 3D does, but much more simple. It partially works ok in ACTCAD. It would be a great add on to what I can do if I could use it better. It's also free if anyone wishes to use it. They just can't make any money off of it without compensating me.

# Is any of you facing the issues of lack of colours like me??
I am talking about the colour palette which actCAD provides for basic 2D rendering in the form of Hatches and line drawings
