1125 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Property Editor / Total angle of an arc | Closed | |
1 |
Task Description
Hi,
if I have an arc and use the Property Editor to get the Geometrical information I always miss the total angle of the arc.
Yes - I have the Start and the End angle but to get the Total angle I have to draw construction lines to be able to use the Angular Dim or Info angle tool /or I need to use a pocket calculator ...
It would be nice to have this calculated by QCAD - I assume it can’t be that difficult to design an extra field which will display, based on the start and end angle, the total angle of an arc.
What do you think?

1135 | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | High | Minimally reproducible segfault when moving a leader in ... | Closed | |
|
Task Description
Hi,
I have a nice minimally reproducible bug on QCAD v3.7.4 on Mac OS X 10.9.5 (Mavericks). QCAD will segfault whenever I take the following steps:
1. Open a new document 2. Create a leader object (D,E) in the default ‘0’ layer. Leave its style and color defined by the layer, as per default. 3. Create a new layer, with a non-default line style or color. The line weight & layer name do not matter. 4. Select the leader object previously create 5. Open the property editor and assign the object to the new layer just created. Every time, this will cause QCAD to segfault on my machine. The crash report is attached.
Another minimally reproducible path to the same error is to do the following: 1. Open a new document 2. Create a leader object (D,E) in the default ‘0’ layer. Give it a custom color and line style that over-ride the layer defaults. 3. Create a new layer, with a non-default line style or color. The line weight & layer name do not matter. 4. Select the leader object previously created. 5. Open the property editor and assign the object to the new layer just created. 6. Still in the property editor, switch the leader object’s color back to ‘By Layer’. The same segfault will occur.
It seems that the crash is triggered by the action of changing a leader object’s color (and/or line style) in a manner that requires the object to check the containing layer’s default color and style. You can achieve this by either changing the object’s layer, or switching the color and style from being custom defined to ‘by layer’, as long as the selection requires the line’s appearance to change.
Any thoughts? My machine’s crash report is attached.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create new drawing and fill it with some contents that’s easy to distinguish, for example text “DRAWING 1”. 2. Save it as dr1.dxf 3. Close it 4. Open dr1.dxf 5. Edit it, for example change text from “DRAWING 1” to “DRAWING 2” 6. Save changed file as dr2.dxf 7. Close it 8. Open dr1.dxf (it should have content “DRAWING 1”) 9. Open dr2.dxf (it should have content “DRAWING 2”) 10. Close tab dr1.dxf 10.1 Qcad will ask you to save changes. 10.2 Press “Yes” –> nothing happens, dialog doesn’t disappear. 10.3 Press “Discard” –> dialog disappears, tab gets closed 10.4 Tab that has content of file dr2.dxf (”DRAWING 2”) remains open but gets title “dr1.dxf” (!) 11. Close tab 12. Press “Yes” in dialog that asks to save changes
Results: 1. Open dr1.dxf 2. Open dr2.dxf As you can see, both files have equal contents (”DRAWING 2”)
Expected results:
1. Files have their own contents. 2. Dialogs asking to save files disappear when checking “Yes”, “Cancel” or “Discard” 3. Tabs don’t change titles and associated file names when other tabs are closed.

Task Description
The new tool “Paste along entity” is very useful! But I work mostly in mechanical engineering and would like to see more options to determine where it has to start with the first insert item.
Screenshot:
1. That is how it works right now - no chance to get it started on both ends of an line.
2. If I need to have my items also on the ends I have to use additional the normal “Paste” function.
3. If I could tell the “Paste along entity” that there is a start and end “Base” dimension then I’m a big step further.
I could tell the tool that it has to start at “0” or at “25” and the rest is just regarding the calculation. Correct?
However - you need many times in mechanical engineering etc. a hole pattern which will start at:
0,25,25,25,25,25,25,25,25,0
or
25, 123.5, 123.5, 123.5, 123.5, 123.5, 25
It would be very nice to have this also in combination with the “Paste along entity” tool

Task Description
Starting with 3.7.7 I noticed, that some parts in drawings are missing: affected are some circles and (some) closed splines. These were created with earlier releases of qcad3.
Attached a file that has two circles, only one of them showing at first (drawn in 3.8.0); set line-display “screen” (NL command) to see the other (drawn earlier). From the dxf serialization (dxflib or teigha does not matter) I do not see where that should stem from or how to fix this.
At zero degrees there is a little dot though, and also, only certain dashed line-types “hide” the (outer only) circle.

1193 | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | Low | Landscape print lacks rotation | Closed | |

Task Description
I have spent a couple of days banging my head against this.
If I print the attached drawing in landscape mode to my printer, the drawing is not rotated, and the paper only contains ~2/3rds, oriented the wrong way.
If I print to PDF-File, open in gv(1), and change the size field from “Automatic” to the chosen papersize, same thing happens.
If I print to Postscript-File, open in gv(1), change the size field to the chosen papersize, the rotation is correct.
Many PDF viewers will autodetect missing rotations and other such stuff, and you will never notice a mistake like this, but gv(1) does it the “old-school” way and shows the mistake.
The crucial bit of the Postscript output is:
/pageinit {
% 210 *297 mm (landscape)
90 rotate 0.060000000 -0.060000000 scale } def
Something similar is missing in the PDF and the output to the printer.
PS: This is also on FreeBSD, but I doubt that matters at all for the “print to file” operations.

Task Description
This is not the same as FS#782 .
Is it possible to have referenced fonts embedded in the exported PDF files somehow? Sort of like producing PDF/A (not really, but at least with the fonts referenced being included)?
I have played around a little with QPrinter::setFontEmbedding(), but it didn’t really produce any results (pro or con). I am not sure it can even be done, as looking around there are numerous references (rather questions and RFEs) for creating PDF/A-3 format PDFs with Qt, but I am yet to bump into a resolution. I almost have a feeling that generating PDF/A-1 files is possible, but I have not found any definite guidelines or ways to that either.
The use case is obvously when you don’t have a particular font installed on the system you are printing your designs on, for example.

1204 | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | Low | Possible Library Indexing bug | Closed | |
|
Task Description
26 April 2015
I have the Library browser set up per instructions from website. The following is about as good an explanation as I can come up with for now.
When I open the program the software keeps trying to update the library index at start-up regardless of whether “Update search index on start-up” is checked or unchecked (this happens when there are items installed into the library and show up in the browser window). However, if I have no library components installed and open the program the software does not try to update the index and immediately opens the main program window (when the index at start-up is unchecked). I can use the manual method to update the index at that time. However after doing that, same thing happens. When I close out and restart the program again the software will want to update the index before the main window opens up (with the index at start-up unchecked).
I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled it again to no avail. It still does the same thing. Therefore I have to wait around 30 sec to 1 minute to wait for and update of the index depending on what I have in the library browser at any one time. Most times I open the program I don’t need index updating as there are no new items to add to the library.
