This disables the input string parser for asp type arguments, in effect passing the input string directly over to either a server side conversion script or Servlet.
9.3.2a: 10-04-24:
The parameter has been implemented:
<param name="nourlfocuscallbackmethod" value="nourlclick" >
This will call an external JS method named “value” with the arguments (nourlfocus, mouseclicks), allowing external API handling in the case the mouse is pressed over a region without a Url associated with it.

9.1.5a: 10-02-25:
API command added: public boolean APIcommandCurrentlyActive() , which allows JS methods to monitor execution of API commands. Returns true if a command is active. Use public void ResetAPIcommand() to reset system variables.
9.1.6a: 10-03-09:
Parameter added. <param name="ExportClickCount" value="enable">. This parameter will append the mouseclick count as a value to Url hyperlinks and export the value to the encapsulating JavaScript method. Since double click are always returned, then the parameter setting below will allow both single and double clicks to be exported:
<param name="URLClick" value="single">
<param name="ExportClickCount" value="enable”>
9.1.7a: 10-03-23:

< param name="rightclickbuttonhelp" value="disable">
Available values: "enable" and "disable"
Default value is "enable"
Add param "rightclickmenu" to disable the menu when there is a right mouse click on the drawing
< param name="rightclickbuttonhelp" value="disable">
Available values: "enable" and "disable"
Default value is "enable"
Add the param "redline_toolbar" back to disable the redline tools via html page
< param name="redline_toolbar" value="disable">
Available values: "enable" and "disable"
Redline can be saved in multiple-pages drawings
Fixed the bug that when the dwf was retrieved from a server script program, it was not recognized as a dwf file
Fixed the problem that URL links did not show correctly the tooltips
Fixed the background color problem that CV did not display correctly for dwf 00.36
Added the capability to read Greek characters in the dwf drawings
Fixed the printing problem that if drawing was printed out for some drawings, a weird pattern of circles were all over the place. The circles were not in the original drawing, and didn't show when the dwf file was seen in the viewer on-screen, they only appeared when printed.
Fixed the bug that CADViewer could not display some compressed binary dwf 5.5 files
Fixed the bug that CADViewer does not display filled polygons
Added parameter "URLClick" to control the number of clicks for URL links
<param name="URLClick" value="single">
Available values: "single" and "double"
The default value is "single"
Fixed the problem with the measurement tool that there are artefacts (stray green cross hairs and diagonal lines) when the mouse is moved over the drawing but the mouse button is not clicked
Added new parameter "redlinefilledgreyscale" with value "enable" to have redline filled objects always printed in grey scale. The default is to print redline filled objects with their current color.
<param name="redlinefilledgreyscale" value="enable">
Available values: "enable" and "disable"
Added new parameters "conversionparameters_autox", "conversionparameters_hpx", "conversionparameters_acrox", "conversionparameters_dgnx", "conversionparameters_acrowhip" and "conversionparameters_autowhip". These parameters are used exclusively with "conversionparameters" in case that different drawing format are loaded in the same session. For example, If a dwg file is opened, parameter "conversionparamters_autox" will be used. Then later a pdf file is loaded, param "conversionparameters_acrox" will be used. If one expects that users will open dwg, dgn and pdf files, then the html that launches CADViewer should contain:
<param name="conversionparameters_autox" value="-B 1 -R">
<param name="conversionURL_acrox" value="-B 1">
<param name="conversionURL_dgnx" value="-B 0">
Fixed the problem that when measurement scale was set, it scaled the original units instead of the current units
Fixed the problem that when Black/White button was clicked twice, the background color became white
Fixed the problem that the measurement highlight yellow box is not consistently large enough for the complete measurement value to be displayed and the 'T' in the word 'Total' was truncated. The highlight yellow box is now displayed at the center of CADViewer screen to avoid being cut off when the box is displayed near the edge of the screen
Fixed the problem that CADViewer does not display drawing that its name contains one or more blank spaces
Added new module to read "symbol" font and this module enables CADViewer to read Greek letters
Added new parameter "textrotation2" to have rotated text displayed with "times" font. The default font of rotated text is "romans". This new parameter requires to have folder "fonts" in the codebase folder. The values for this parameters are "disable" and "enable".
Added new parameters "conversionURL_autox", "conversionURL_hpx", "conversionURL_acrox", "conversionURL_dgnx", "conversionURL_acrowhip" and "conversionURL_autowhip". These parameters are used in conjunction with "conversionURL" in case that the converion programs are installed on different servers. For example, if autoxchange, hp2xchange are installed on a Linux server, acroxchange is installed on an Unix server and dgnxchange is installed on a Windows machine, then the html that launches CADViewer should contain:
<param name="conversionURL" value="http://linuxserver.com/serlvet/ConversionServlet">
<param name="conversionURL_acrox" value="http://unixserver.com/serlvet/ConversionServlet">
<param name="conversionURL_dgnx" value="http://windowsserver.com/cgi-bin/ConversionCgi.pl">
Fixed the problem that line thickness and line pattern did not display correctly
Added new parameter "progressbar". If this parameter is used, CADViewer will dislay a progress bar telling users that the drawing is loading
<param name="progressbar" value="enable"
Default value is "disable"
Fixed the bug that CADViewer was very slow when it generated the print output
Fixed the bug that CADViewer was halted when it opened some dwf 6 files
Added new parameter "redlineparams". If this parameter is used in conjuntion with parameter "save_redline_to_url" ,CADViewer allows administrators to have a complete control of all saving redline parameters. The values are in the form of a list delimited by '&' character . The only parameter provided by CADViewer in addition to this list is the parameter "red". "red" is a reserved parameter for CADViewer and its value is the content of the redline file.
The following is an example of how to use parameter "redlineparams" and "save_redline_to_url" to send user define parameters back to the server together with the redline content
<param name=redlineparams value="param1=value1¶m2=value2¶m3=value3&...¶mN=valueN">
<param name=save_redline_to_url value="http://www.xyz.com/cgi-bin/any_cgi_script.cgi>
If parameter "redlineparams" is not used with parameter "save_redline_to_url", then CADViewer takes all user defined parameters following the '?' after the script name and adds other CADViewer reserved parameters such as "dn","na","saveURL" and "saveLocation"
Fixed the problem that when the parameter "background_color" was set in the html or in the viewer.cfg file, then the set_background_color button did not function
Fixed the problem that arcs were shifted
Fixed the problem that layers list sorted in unsorted order
Fixed the problem that if 'Display Black/White' was clicked a 2nd time after a non-default background color had been selected, the display reverted to white.
Fixed the problem that if Print Black/white was selected, then the dwf file objects were printed in black/white, but redline objects were printed in greyscale.
Delete WPrint.dll and WPrintNNN.dll when applet is initialized
Added "Scaled to fit" to the print to scale print dialog
Added "Forced graphic to bw" to the print screen dialog
Fixed the problem that CV could not open jpg and .gif files
Added parameter "redlinesave_notify" with value set to "disable" to turn saving redline notification off
Fixed the problem that the save redlines dialog box is not shown the size correctly
Fixed the problem that CV could not open drawings via https
Added parameter "socketread" to fix the problem that CV cannot open files from Linux server & client
<param name="socketread" value="enable">
Added parameter "cvstate" to have CV reporting back to the html page via javascript function CVstate(statestring) the state of the current action fucntion when a API button is pressed
<param name="cvstate" value="enable">
Added parameter "drawingserverport" to force CV to use this port to get the drawing from the server
<param name="drawingserverport" value="444">
Added parameter "cvready" to report back to the html page via a javascript function CVread(dummy) that CV is loaded and CV is ready for API calls
<param name="cvready" value="enable"&gl
Removed Version Checking
Added a new API parameter:
SetAppletParameter(String param, String value)
This parameter will either overwrite the existing parameter
defined in the
html file or create a new one if the parameter is

Redline tools is now modified to make it easy to use. It can be drawn by the following ways. The first way is a single click and no release followed by a drag of the mouse to the desired size then a release of the button to place the object. The second way is a single click to start and then move the mouse to get the desired size and then a second click to place the object on the drawing. There is an exception for polyline and polyline arrow tools. These two tools require a click and release to initiate the object, subsequent click and release will draw an edge of the polyline and a double click to place the object on the drawing
