Hi John,

This wish easily may be done by yourself.

Open the Deltacad macro in the editor of Deltacad.
Look for the block 'draw hourpoints
The second statement is
For count = 0 To 23.999 Step 1

Change Step 1 into
Step 0.5  for half hous
or Step 0.25  for quarter hours
or Step 0.166666 for 10 minutes points.
or Step 0.083333 for 5 minutes points.

That's all.

Don't worry about the error by repeating addition of 0.083333 or 0.166666
The error is max. 24 - 24 * 12 * 0.083333 = 24 - 23.9999904 hour =
9.6 ^-5 hour = 0.3456 seconds.
Otherwise, add an extra 3 or 6.........


Fer.
