BricsCAD Lite; BricsCAD Pro; BricsCAD Mechanical; BricsCAD BIM

Method

Opens the Digital Signatures dialog box where you can attach a digital signature to the drawing in order to validate the origin, authenticity, and unaltered state of the file since the digital signature was applied.

Note:
  • The digital signature remains valid after renaming the drawing.
  • The SIGWARN system variable controls the display of a dialog with the signature content when a drawing with a digital signature is opened.
  • After the DIGITALSIGN command is launched, a digital signature is applied every time when saving the drawing until it is closed. The next time the signed drawing is opened and modified, a warning message appears when saving.
