1 |
Task Description
If I have to do some kind of intense tasks like converting a previous Polyline, which is now exploded to lines (maybe a couple hundred thousand short lines) back to a polyline (Polyline/Create from Segments) QCAD needs time to do that. In this “working time” I can’t see any indicator that QCAD is working. Not a Hourglass on the mouse or some other indicator. I have just the feeling: Nothing is going on right now ...
It would be nice to have some kind of visual info that QCAD is working.

Task Description
Add the options from the Option toolbar the Line from Angle tool to the Options toolbar of Line from 2 Points.
As long the user does not set a value for Angle or Length the tool acts just like Line from 2 Points. During this time the values are automatically filled in corresponding to the line preview on canvas. Once the user enters a value to into the field for Angle or Length this value is fixed and only the other one can be modified on the canvas. Of course the user can also define both values by typing in the values.

Just a thought, but one that could be useful for machinists in particular - a measurement tool that can snap to a point as per usual, but then just displays the drawing coordinates in X and Y. This could be expanded to the dimensions tool set, so that you can click on a point and print the coordinates next to it.

Task Description
QCAD. ver. 3.27.1.0 (3.27.1) Qt version: 5.13.2 Architecture: x86_64 OS Windows 11
It might be useful to have the possibility to manage the references of the images contained within the drawing. A design could use recurring images, stored in a folder outside the one in which the design is located. Moving the drawing or folders (or changing the PC) will lose the folder references and the images are not displayed when the drawing is opened again. I imagine the possibility to view the references of the images (and if necessary modify manually or with a pointer) with the option of: attach, detach, reload, etc., as in the example below (referred to ActCad - based on Intellicad technology)

1006 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Making zoom in / out speed configurable | Closed | |
2 |
Task Description
Although this report is specific to Magic Mouse on OS-X Mountain Lion, since mice are a fairly common commodity across all platforms, I suspect this may be a more common issue across multiple platforms. The issue is that with my Magic Mouse, when I zoom into or out of the drawing by dragging my finger forward or backward on the mouse (equivalent of rolling the scroll wheel of a mechanical mouse), the zoom keeps zooming (in either direction) LONG after I have stopped moving my finger! Now, I do have my scroll speed set high because I have a large monitor and like to get around on it fast. But QCAD is the only application that does this exaggerated scrolling, so there must be some missing conversion or time constant issue going on here. I could change the speed of my mouse and that would likely fix it: in QCAD. But then all my other apps would be too slow with the mouse. Maybe there needs to be a custom setting in the Preferences that allows to user to set the mouse speed for just inside QCAD. But I suspect its more just a mouse speed parameter conversion error.

1007 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Making zoom in / out direction configurable | Closed | |

Task Description
Maybe I missed it, but there does not appear to be a Preference selection for changing the zoom direction. The default is opposite the way it is on other programs and I would like to change it to be consistent between all my programs. My other programs provide this ability so I suppose I could change all of them, but that appears Orwellian on QCADs part.

1005 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Making use of mouse buttons configurable | Assigned | |
|
Task Description
According to the help, one requires a middle mouse to pan. Since few standard mice have middle buttons, this is a poor choice for this all important function. The default should be the right mouse button when ever the mouse is placed in an open area with nothing else to select. That way right click can still be used to invoke a pop down menu when ever the mouse is placed over an object that might have a need for pop down menu options. Additionally, the Pan mouse key should be alterable and selectable from a Preferences option, since if one does have a three button mouse, we should not prevent a user from employing this hardware if they have it. The same might be said for all mouse buttons to allow the user to configure the mouse operation to that which is most comfortable and efficient for their tasks.

Task Description
Andrew,
When we use Lengthen/Shorten (LE) with a positive amount the result is clearly visible when indicating a side of an entity. With a negative amount there is seemingly no preview. It is generated and shown but one can not distinguish it especially with solid lines.
Adding an orthogonal auxiliary preview shape some N pixels long would do the trick.

Task Description
QCAD Professional Win installer 32bit Version: 3.25.2.7 (3.25.2.7) Internet: QCAD.org Build Date: Dec 16 2020 Revision: e06f230 Qt Version: 5.13.2 Architecture: i386 Compiler: Unknown
Not related to OS, nor version.
The method Polyline from Segments (OC) can be configured for tolerance and simplification in the Options Toolbar. The method Polyline from Selection (OG) has no UI or none showing.
OG retrieves a tolerance from QCAD.ini, what is initially not set:
var tolerance = RSettings.getDoubleValue("PolylineFromSelection/Tolerance", 0.001);
The tolerance will be default = 0.001 similar as the default in AppPrefs. The tolerance setting is included in QCAD.ini after changing the AppPrefs entry.
OG calls PolylineFromSelection.autoJoinSegments with this tolerance:
var counter = PolylineFromSelection.autoJoinSegments(di, tolerance, this);
PolylineFromSelection.autoJoinSegments calls PolylineFromSegments.createPolylineShape with simplification hard coded to true. (last parameter)
// create polyline from line, arc, spline or open polyline entity:
var polyline = PolylineFromSegments.createPolylineShape(
entity, doc, vTolerance, op, undefined,
traversed, callBacks, undefined, true);
I would like to see the simplification optional and default = true.

Provide configuration option to raise / lower maximum reference points that are shown for selected entities (currently fixed to 1000).
Original report:
Imported a spline-dxf from adobe illustrator. Converted the spline to polyline with explode command. Then no anchor points / vertex points / vertices were showing anymore. Simplified the polyline so that it had less than 1000 points. Vertices became visible.
I think some freeform objects need actually more than 1000 vertices. Also them need to be edited. Please increase the amount of vertices showing to biginteger

2530 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Make it possible to control the tooltip delay time when... | Assigned | |
|
Task Description
I noticed that every time I move my mouse from the main working canvas (schematic area) to the tool buttons on the left sidebar there is a delay before the first hover tooltip (which displays the tool names and hotkeys corresponding to each tool button) displays.
The tooltips remain fast (near instant) after that initial hover, but it it would be nice if there was an option field for controlling how long the tooltip delay is for that initial display delay.
Currently, on my Windows 10 machine, it takes about 1 full second for the tooltip to show, which may not sound like much but feels like a lot when trying to work faster.
Here is a link to the related forum discussion, which also discussed a different (and I’d say more useful/effective) idea as well.
I’m creating two separate Bugtracker submissions for that one thread though, to keep things clean.
Perhaps I should have created two separate forum thread for that to begin with.

If we use a dash line type and set the overall linetype factor to 100 on a drawing (plan of 20metres x 20 metres approx) and then come to print it on A3, the linetype is not being scalled back from 20metres to suit the page extents.
So instead of lots of dashes we see just 2 strikes across the page. For now we set the linefactor low, which is good for printing, but now appears a solid line in the display unless we really zoom in.

To discuss: Save the license as tag instead of a special field. Pure tag searching is awesome fast. The more special cases that have to be handled different, the slower the search. License tags are quite unique. If something is tagged with “GNU”, it is very likely that the license is meant (expect for the animal named gnu). Same for BSD, Public Domain and CC licenses.

rebuild (clear) library browser DB on start if language was changed
Provide meta information for directories
the quick info (shown on item mouse over) should show additional information
GUI changes according to the attached file
every tab should have its own list view (based on RListView) / model / splitter
RListView, LibraryBrowserView: use signal / slots mechanism instead of inheritance
Automatic Translation
-
add item locale
add authors as tag
add license as tag
perspectives (top, side, front)
make it possible to easily combine common tags, e.g. “DIN-912”, “top viewing direction”, “high level of details”
Tags are searched with exact match (in opposite to the “normal” keyword search, which is “*keyword*”).
Drawings have additional tags to match this exact search, e.g. a drawing with the tag “DIN-912” has also the tag “DIN” assigned. These additional tags are made programmatically while parsing the RDF.
[old] This could be achieved by defining some standardized tags with a special meaning, e.g. viewing direction “view:top”, “view:front”, “view:side”; level of detail “lod:low”, “lod:medium”, “lod:high”. The user interface could show these special tags as filters for the current view or search view.
