2014QCAD (main)Bug ReportLowFocus on Options Toolbar failsAssigned
0%
Task Description

Scenario: e.g. Tools Move/Copy and Rotate switched to “use without dialog.

Launch within a drawing Move/Copy, use the Keyboard keys CTRL + Space to focus on the Option Bar - the field for Numbers is Highlighted and I can change it. Further navigation with keys on the keyboard depends on remembered option (copy yes/no etc what make a navigation possible or not. It looks like the navigation with the Arrow keys is focused on the canvas and sooner or later the courser will jump to the Command Line or Property editor. Same behavior with the Rotation tool.

Offsetting 32 polys from ellipses fails.
Offsetting 16 polys can be completed with 2 selections for outer and 2 for inner.

For some reason the offset function halts premature.

2048QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery LowMove / Copy to current layer fails when reference point...Assigned
0%
Task Description

QCAD 3.24.2 / macOS x86_64 10.14.6

Starting with empty doc:
1. Draw any object (e.g. a rectangle) on layer 0.
2. Create new layer (”1”) with color, say yellow.
3. Select new layer
4. Select new object
5. Modify → Move / Copy
6. Click reference point
7. Click target point same as reference point
8. In “Move / Copy Options” dialog, select “Delete Original” and check “Use current layer and attributes.” Click OK.

The moved object stays on the layer it was previously on. Using “Move / Copy” as a quick way to move a selection between layers is not useful even though it appears to be the recommended way in a Google search.

Note: if “Keep Original” is selected instead, the copied object is placed on the current layer and the original object remains on its layer, as expected.

Note: if the target point is different from the reference point, the moved object is placed on the current layer as expected.

There are other workarounds too, cut / paste with “To current layer” checked seems to work, as does chaging the layer in the Properties Editor.

How to reproduce.

1. Create a text field with some non-english words in the upper index. (see attached pic1.png)
2. Save the project and close QCAD.
3. Run QCAD and open same project.
4. Now upper/lower indexed text becomes not human readable UTF codes. (see attached pic2.png)

Polyline arcs with Width = 2R render as circle segments rather than circle sectors.
As Non-reversed arcs these don’t explode.
As reversed arc these explode to a single arc rather than a circle sector contour.

Arctic_Eddie reports failing CAM offset at exactly these points !!!
Reported is a faulty arc with radius of over 360,000mm.
- I can not reproduce this under QCAD working further on the Polys with NaNs.
- However the direct offset of such controlpoint Splines is erroneous.
(see file in post 30902)

Arctic_Eddie reports arc radii of over 10,000mm.
- These don’t seem to be faulty.
- I agree that BiArc fitting should be bound to a lower and certainly to an upper limit.
- That should be huge otherwise faint curvature is represented by many
wobbles or too quick by straight lines.
(All this, keeping in mind that QCAD doesn’t return the optimum fitted BiArc, see: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?t=4859)

In QcadCAM when using the new Themes or User Created Themes the Layer and Block Tabs Appear to be reversed in East and West Positions.

I didn’t notice this until he pointed it out and don’t expect it to be high on your list of things to do..

0%
1 Task Description

I have set the grid/snap value to X=.0625 Y=.0625 on all 4 viewports.
When zooming in and out the grid/snap scale changes from .0625 to 3.90625. at this point the grid/snap points differ,
This causes a variation in the grid/snap reference points lending to drawing errors.

example
When I use the grid settings defaults .01, when zooming in and out, the grid/snap scaling doesn’t seem to have this issue.
Other values do, See below.

set value first zoom second zoom next zoom

	point		point		point ...	

0.01 0.1 1.0 10.0 ...

0.0254 0.64516 6.4516 64.516 ...

Why is there a squaring of the original set value? Which then becomes a new zoomed grid/snap value?

When using the vertical line tool, you can enter a length value in the options toolbar, then place the line. If you want to change the length, you just need to enter a new value and the length field will update.

I could not seem to duplicate this behavior with the horizontal line tool.

Task Description

Regarding to forum post:
https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=8982&p=35836#p35836

dwg loaded in 3.27.1 frees QCAD (no response) and a Win10 PC. Same drawing loaded in 3.26.0 causes no problems. It looks to me that two hatches (handle 198b6, 198ba) are the culprits.
Drawing saved without those hatches opens without any problem in 3.27.1.

2391QCAD Community EditionBug ReportLowFix Dark Theme for LinuxAssigned
0%
Task Description

The dark theme for Linux is broken:

- Some icons have dark background (expected) and black foreground color (that should be replaced by white of very light gray)
- Some icons have light background (not cohesive with the theme).
- The command history shows dark blue font on dark gray background.
- The grid’s ruler shows black font over dark background for the numbers.
- The icons folder is missing in the GitHub repository, but other themes have that folder.
- The general icons (open, save, and so on) are not dark theme friendly. A better approach for maybe all the themes would be to use something like the breeze icons pack for LibreOffice, and it will have the added benefit of making the app look more modern.

The icons issue is the biggest problem. They should probably replace the black color for white or very light gray. Even the red accent color is not ideal for dark themes, is not the main issue.

Attached is an image that show the problems and another that shows LibreOffice with the Dark Breeze theme for reference.

2405QCAD Community EditionBug ReportLowDimension scaling not workingAssigned
0%
Task Description

I’m using QCAD Community Edition 3.27.7 on Windows 11.

When I started my drawing, I was able to change the size scale factor of (existing) dimensions using “Edit/Drawing Preferences/Dimension/Dimension Settings/Size scale factor”. However, suddenly this feature stopped working and now I cannot switch the dimension scale factor any longer.

I used this feature to be able to adapt the scale factor of the dimensions when printing in different scales.
I.e. all my drawings are in “original” size but when it comes to printing, I print some parts in scale 1:2 (in which case I used to set the size scale factor of the dimensions to 2) and some parts in scale 1:10 (in which case I used to set the scale factor of the dimensions to 10). Using this procedure, the dimensions have the same size (font size, arrow size, gaps etc.) on both drawings.

I have attached the drawing, that shows the described issues.

2406QCAD (main)Bug ReportLowSVG Export incorrect on blocksAssigned
0%
1 Task Description

When using SVG export on a drawing with a block defined, the export is incorrect. Arcs are drawn incorrectly and parts of the block are missing. If that block is exploded, the SVG export is correct. Attached is a block on the lower left and the same block on the lower right after explode. Also attached is the resulting SVG file.
This is not always the case. Some blocks are correctly exported to SVG. The upper row is again a block on the left and the same block exploded on the right. It exports properly.

2415QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery LowIssues with OffsetBothSidesAssigned
0%
1 Task Description

Andrew,

I can’t find any documentation concerning OffsetBothSides under Misc .. Modify.
It is not listed in the QCAD features nor in the changelog.

There was a Feature Request FS#1130 for this, I think you might want to close that as being implemented.

The tool asks for a Line, Arc, Circle, Ellipse, Spline or Polyline.
It also seems to act on shapes that can be exploded to such entities like Text, Dimension and Hatch entities.

There may be many ‘Result loop not closed’ or ‘No offsets possible’ warnings when hovering over entities on a drawing.
The preview may be partially, one or two sided and even two sided partially and closed with semi-circles.

I only successfully created a dual offset for open Splines, open or logically open Polylines.
All other attempts result in a single offset at the indicated side.

There are the usual exceptions for Polylines with arc-segments but that is related to small arc segments and being tangentially connected.
Only tested it on a Win7 platform.
I don’t suspect that version 3.27.8 includes a fix for that ... ;-)

Regards,
CVH

2440QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery LowHatch from Segments > False positives open loop warning...Assigned
0%
1 Task Description

Andrew,

Most probably not related to OS or QCAD version.

When hatching an area with Hatch from Segments (HS) there might be false positive warnings on open loops.
It seems that this is related to the orientation of the indicated segments and the order of selection.
The real problematic position is not always the first that is reported.
Loop count is increased even if it is a single loop.

Included a basic test drawing to replicate these.
Further details to replicate the issue are in the file.

CVH

Andrew,
For more detailed description please refer to:
https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&p=40081#p40081

In the included screen grab below, left is when drawn cubic, closed periodic, from 4 points.
Right is when the file is re-loaded.

It is hard to select the incorrect shape when pointing near it ... Probably it is referring to the correct internal shape.
After drawing it explodes to a Null length polyline with 2 identical vertices.

I can’t include the error in a file as it reverts on re-load.

The same issue exist for quadratic, closed periodic, from 3 points.

CVH

Task Description

I’ve opened an existing, old dwg file in the Professional Trial edition, file(1) says it’s “DWG AutoDesk AutoCAD 2004/2005/2006”.
It contains (among other stuff) a floor plan with areas in m^2. A PDF export (from the original software used at the time, probably autocad) shows that this was displayed correctly.
However, in QCAD, I get a “\A1” and a very small number 2 instead. I’ll attach screenshots.
