Switch on / off line width display (display mode between normal and draft)

Add support for importing units other than defaults (pixels) based on unit given in svg:width / svg:height attributes.

Complete SvgImporter.js and SvgImport.js

1. Implement SvgImporter.prototype.importFile to import the SVG file with the given fileName. Reading only all path data without any attributes or transformations is fine as a first step. SvgImporter.prototype.importFile() currently imports one hard coded path data as proof of concept.
2. Implement SvgImport.prototype.beginEvent() to show a file open dialog that lets the user choose an SVG file to import.
3. Support SVG as file format for part library items through SvgImporter

This should be enough to import any SVG file in library/symbols

Support drawing linetype scale factor (LTSCALE)

status bar: avoid scientific display of large float numbers

Break up spline at given point, break out segment, etc.

Snap to reference points does not work for arc entities as one would expect.
The four points on the arc at angles 0,90,180,270 should be reference points (like for circles).

Show area of closed polyline, hatch, solid fill in property editor.

Show / hide block references from block list (eye-icon)

Set up fixed grid without any auto scaling or adjusting or meta grid at all.

Scrolling with arrow keys

Provide option to hide scroll bars.

Provide script functionality for entities:

• Paint or decorate entity, for example based on custom properties assigned to the entity
• Listen and react to events

Reference dimensioning (baseline dimensioning)

Create multiple dimensions using the same base line.

Configuration option for property editor:

• if block reference with attributes is selected, filter by block reference
• if block reference with attributes is selected, show all selected entities (no filter)

Calibrate printer X/Y ratio and possibly scale to allow accurate printing even on inaccurate printers.

Print preview: auto center / scale

Perpendicular (orthogonal to entity) snap onto closest entity.

Add support for clipping (FPDF_CLIPPATH).

PDF Export: from file menu

Add PDF export from print preview.

If a part library file contains a block with block name==file name, QCAD could directly insert the file contents instead of grouping it into a new block with block name==file name.
This would allow part library items to contain block references with custom properties which would be copied into the drawing on insertion.

Allow for multiple authors of one item.

This can be achieved by replacing the rs:author attribute of tag rdf:Description with:

 
 
    "John Doe"
    "Jane Doe"
 
 

Explode Solids into closed polylines with 3 or 4 vertices.

1. When selecting the Scissors function, it deactivates after the cut is done. One can therefore not continuously select lines and cut it at the selected point. Each time the function has to be activated from the start.
