DetailsSince the new QCAD 3, it is not possible any more to use “enter” in text boxes. The “enter” is always replaced by another symbol, which makes it impossible to have a long text string as a unit - like it always was in QCAD.
Could this please be fixed? It makes text control difficult. |
This task depends upon
Which text box in which tool is affected by this? Can you give an example?
What operating system are you on?
Thanks.
I am only aware of one Text tool In QCAD - the one in the LH toolbar. It affects both Windows and Linux versions and I found it from Beta to Final.
I tried changing fonts, but it has no effect.
Yes, there is only one text tool. There are various text boxes though, everywhere where you can input texts, numbers, etc.
Pressing the enter key has a different meaning in some of those text input boxes.
I'm not sure if I understand your report correctly:
Possibility A:
This would likely be a Qt bug in combination with your keyboard configuration or layout.
Possibility B:
If this is the case, please make sure that you have NOT checked the option [ ] Simple text in the text dialog which is for simple, one line texts without formatting only.
Aha!
It was that simple text option! On the Beta it was switched off by default, but did not work in either mode.
On Final, it now makes a difference, but I missed clicking it.
Thanks a million.
