1705 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Connect certain actions and layers | Assigned | |

Task Description
When dimensioning my drawings I always want the dimensions to be on the dimensions layer. When adding text I want the text to be on the text layer. When drawing an infinite line it is always a construction line, therefore I want it to be on the construction line layer. When drawing a line segment it almost always is on my outline layer.
So I propose a new option to bind certain actions to certain layers. Whenever those actions are selected the layer should automatically be switched.
I can imagine this being implemented in the General→Tool Settings menu, where the short cuts are defined.

Task Description
I found that words which has plural forms are translated in manner where only two forms are possible - like in English language. For example: “Object” and “Objects”. But other languages (for example Polish) very often have more than 2 plural forms. There are also strings which use only one form (for example: “Reset label position of %1 dimension(s).”) but cardinal number placed in string point on more forms than one. All these strings looks bad when translated and sometimes even in English. I mark most of them using comments:
http://translate.qcad.org/pl/qcad/translate/#search=plural&sfields=notes
http://translate.qcad.org/pl/qcadpro/translate/#search=plural&sfields=notes

I would suggest adding a feature Inkscape has, which is that a single middle click zooms in. This is not at the detriment of panning, since the mouse/pen (I use a Wacom tablet) doesn’t move. Right now middle click doesn’t do anything so I don’t think it should be a problem.
Another awesome and related Inkscape zooming feature is that Shift+middle click shifts to window zooming. But with the added bonus that you don’t lose the tool you’re in. Try it out on Inkscape if I’m not clear!
Cheers, JFL

Task Description
‘Create From Segments’ ‘OG’ includes and admits selection of segments on locked layers.
A) -When selecting a segment on a not locked layer it can include segments on locked layers that connect to the string. (Assumed wrong) -A copy of the segments on the locked layer(s) are included in the polyline. (Assumed wrong) These segments are not removed from the locked layer(s) because of their locked nature. (Intended behaviour) eg. ‘OG’ & selecting the arc at point A in the example file. The arc is on a not locked layer.
B) -When selecting a segment on a locked layer it will fully remove segments that connect to the string on not locked layers. (Assumed very wrong) -Connecting segments on the locked layer(s) will not be converted to a polyline because of their locked nature. (Intended behaviour) eg. ‘OG’ & selecting the line at point B in the example file. The cyan lines are on a locked Layer.
Both A & B can be undone.
The example is a part of the ‘Skewing project’.

Hi Andrew,
we know that you need to have always software performance in your mind to decide which features / tools can / should be implemented and on which way.
I really appreciate your effort to find the best middle way between software features and performance but I think also it’s a tough call to appraise worldwide the overall customer equipment to make the software workable to the best for everybody. That isn’t possible without compromise.
Maybe it would make sense to think about a new dialog in the “Application Preferences” to let the user decide what kind of feature are absolutely needed regarding to his/her work-task / equipment. I don’t mean that you need to cover every single thing but the main “performance jeopardy’s” should be covered with an on/off switch.
Yes I know - that isn’t done in 5 minutes but I think that can make your life easier in the long run and will cover even more customer.
Just my two cents. ;)

1792 | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | Low | Dimension > Angular: transformations broken | Closed | |
1 |
Task Description
(I originally described the problem in the forum: https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=5721 ) (The problem was also reproduced by user “Husky” so it not installation specific.)
I have a model where one of the details is as shown in attachment 1
However, when I create a viewport and display the part in the the layout the angular measurement is another. See attachment 2.
In the model it should be noted that the part displayed is a detail copied with a different scale as to Zoom in on a detail in order to put dimensions on it. It was created by copying a part of the model and pasting it back in the model but with 3x zoom.
I have also included the full .dxf file in the hope that it helps you both reproduce and fix this issue
Note: The same problem seems to also produce “ghostlines” in other viewports in the layout which is not present in the model. Removing the angular measurement also removed the ghostline. You can observe the issue by looking at layout2 and you can see a line (dimension layer) going from top right corner of the viewport towards the lower left. This line is not present in the model and appears to be some strange extension to the angular dimension the detail that is just to the top right in the model.

Task Description
In a the modelspace I have a block reference of a block(parent), which includes block references (with attributes) of another blocks(child). Than I select this parent block reference and choose Explode. The result is, that the child block references have visible attributes, but they are not connected to the block reference anymore (I can not see them in property editor when the child block is selected). Than when I choose synchronize attributes, new attributes with default values will appear. I am not sure it his is a bug or expected behavior of the Explode feature.
If it is not a bug, I would like to have new Extract feature, which would copy the content of the selected block reference and immediately insert it exactly to the same place (attributes would be still connected to child references) Extracted block reference would be than removed. Optionally, it could delete the block definition if it is not used anymore in the drawing (but there is already Block Purge feature which will do this).

A friendly request to add an option to disable hatch rendering on “dwg2bmp” conversions.
Depending on the nature of the conversion and the density of the hatch, this may render unintelligible images (see attachments). The option could look like “-t, -nohatch” to indicate hatches should be hidden before rendering. This could potentially become an option too for “dwg2svg” or “dwg2pdf.”

1 |
Task Description
In a medium complex drawing it may be too much details to have all layers in a drawing visible at once.
Instead a number of views would be created that saves not only zoom level and position but also what layers are visible and not (as appropriate for the purpose of that particular view). This is very cumbersome (to the extent it is not really realistic) to achieve today and requires a lot of duplication of both model and layers.
The advantage of adding this is the ability to have only one model (with multiple views) and avoid duplication of work and the risk of inconsistency inherent with many copies of the model.
As a further (and natural extension to this) would be the ability to used this functionality with view-ports to be able to create (possibly many) paper-spaces from a single model. This would however require view-ports to be aware of what view they are a window into. A single change in the model would then propagate to all defined view-ports and paper-spaces.

Just starting with QCAD, for some hours now - really excellent user interface (compared to other low budget CADs, like DCAD, or BeckerCAD...) !
Surprisingly, point coordinates - entered via the command line, and shown with correct positions on the drawing- are not displayed correctly with the ‘dimordinate’ (DO) command. There are no negative values, even when the center point (0;0) is right in the middle of the drawing, so points left and below should have !

Task Description
Some functions / methods can generate some sort off entity or part with NaN / Null / Null-lenght ... props. Some explicitly don’t and test their actions with isNull().
As these serve a purpose in some processes, trails of them can be part of the results. For some users Null / Null-lenght are meaningfull, for other users these produce errors down the line. In a few cases its a desirable feature eg. controlpoint spline. (Allthough there are no Null props involved with equal successively controlpoints)
Many problem post on the forum are related to Null - Zero and so on.
In some cases it can’t be undone by re-editing the drawing. https://qcad.org/bugtracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=1925
If it can’t be undone by Undo/Redo it is a bug. https://qcad.org/bugtracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=1757

Users, that intensively use CAD and other software simultaneously prefer to make same behavior in their applications switching CAD scroll to plain mouse wheel.
QCAD’s “Application Preferences”: “Graphics View: Navigation”: “Mouse wheel/ two finger swipe”: “Scroll” allow user to assign scroll up/down to wheel mouse instead of Zoom. But there is mistake Ctrl+Wheel didn’t change to Zoom. Ctrl+Wheel continues to scroll up/down, as the wheel. Wheel = Scroll up/down; Ctrl+Wheel = Scroll up/down; Shift+Wheel = Scroll left/right. No zoom!
Draw manipulation at this mode like a hell: you need to use wheel in conjunction with Ctrl/Shift to point draw in desired position, than move your hand to +(-) for make desired zoom.

Use TM by mistake to trim a line to a closed shape. Topic: https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=7780 File included in the topic. Y1 Original Y2 Faulty use of TM Y3 After ‘Undo’
Husky only ‘could agree on a not proper working undo’ The conditional clause of this sentence is ‘the odd choice’. Blaming this on incompetence. Insight is the best way to get better ... ... but the rest is more an odd choice of tools for this kind of task ...
Again, the MISTAKE was by accident, not intended, in a flick of the wrist ... I didn’t change the trimming method, I simply forgot to ... only once.
The ‘undo’ of my incompetent MISTAKE didn’t returned to how the situation was before I erroneous trimmed with TM. I was simply undoing my erroneous action.
Documented it in 4 quadrants. For this, 4 times on purpose, and not as a consistent ‘odd choice’.

Task Description
Andrew, unrelated to any OS or version.
Circles do explode to polylines with two arc segments. Discussed earlier and very correct because a full circle bulge would be a mathematical limit situation.
When there is no option to ‘Undo’ anymore or when the file was saved & loaded there is no easy way back.
One of the reasons why I isolate circle entities if I might going to use XP as in the file here: https://qcad.org/bugtracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=2155 Even knowing it, I still make more mistakes as I would like.
It would be nice to be able to exclude circle entities from the GUI explosion action XP. Can be simply implemented in the top of Explode.explodeSelection with an extra preference in AppPrefs, default =true.
On the other hand, the explosions of circles used internally in various methods should remain.

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)

Discovered in 3.25.2.4, reproducible under 3.25.2.7
Draw any open or closed chain of line entities. Select All. OC to Polyline. Step through vertices.
No example file provided because these NaN values are not saved to a file. More pronounced with lines as with arcs. Less pronounced when recombining after an explosion. Some methods clear these to value = void. Some methods clear these to zero (OR). Can also occur when adding segments to an existing polyline with OC.
