HydraCAD Ribbon Menus

HydraCAD includes ribbon menus. These menus provide an alternate method to access the most popular HydraCAD commands. Press the HydraCAD tab to reveal the HydraCAD ribbon menu.

The ribbon panels organize commands according to the activity. The Draw panel is shown here. It includes commands for drawing lines and mains. Picking the flyout arrow reveals more commands such as Underground. Use the Press Pin to hold the flyout open.

The Insert panel includes commands for adding sprinklers, riser nipples, hangers, pipe sizes, etc. Ribbon menus were designed to streamline cad work and reduce toolbar clutter in the workspace.
