Task Description
Andrew,
Not OS or Version depending.
We can’t filter on some specific properties of polylines.
Handy would be: - Global Width - Orientation
Specific: - Polyline Pattern But I don’t really search for them ... For some post-op I just need them all to be set to ‘No’. - # of vertices Filtering the complex from the more simple ones. - Including Bulges or not To seperate polylines with arc segments form others. There some operations that don’t really work with bulging. - Z values and/or global Z This would make sense for some but filtering on Z is not common under QCAD as it is 2D.

Andrew,
Changing orientation of a polyline with RV or by changing it in the Property Editor clears the global width value.
Single line pieces as polyline default to CCW. Still the global width is cleared when trying to set them CW.
I didn’t update since 3.27.0 but reading this topic I suppose it still is valid. Related: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=9362

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)

Task Description
QCAD (before version 3.27?) used to show some custom XDATA, e.g. tag 1000, even for application names that are not “QCAD”, which for me was useful, so it’s somewhat of a regression. (I think it was broken when selecting multiple items, maybe that’s why it was removed.)
I suggest to bring that feature back, but maybe show it only when a single element is selected if that’s easier.
(As a workaround/hack I guess it would be possible to rewrite the required information as QCAD compatible XDATA externally I guess.)

2301 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Rotate preview on/off | Assigned | |

Task Description
Hi,
I believe prior QCAD version 3.22.0.0 there was no rotating preview. The rotating preview shows the outcome regarding to the chosen center point. I know that it is also common for move/copy. However, for me it is very confusing and difficult to chose the correct center point for a rotation if I’m constantly been distracted by the most of the time overlapping preview of my selection. This said if the drawing is very detailed I have to zoom in extremely to be able to snap to the right entity. That wouldn’t be necessary without the preview. Additional rotate a large drawing selections will compromise the performance - CPU is going like crazy.
It would be nice to have an option to turn this preview on/off.

Some drawings, particularly with a lot of angles, results in a very decimal number.
It would be great to have the option to change the precision of individual dimensions when necessary.
Currently, the precision is universal in the drawing.
What I’m currently doing is leave the precision to zero decimal cases and manually inserting decimals when needed, but it results in a dimension with no “Auto” label, that may result in wrong dimensions on the workflow, especially when editing the project. The dimension labeled manually will not change, so it can cause errors.

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 ... 0.02 0.04 0.4 4.0 ... 0.04 0.16 1.6 16.0 ... 0.05 0.25 2.5 25.0 ... 0.0625 0.390625 3.90625 39.0625 ... 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?

Task Description
As a heavy mechanical drawings user, it would help a lot to have an option to select similar entities while working on QCAD.
In the flow of the work, sometimes I need to make some changes in all similar entities of the drawing.
The Select Similar works selecting all the same items with the same layer on the drawing.
Example:
I have a drawing for other company and I have to make a massive layer changing to my own layers.
I select a line and circles with a box selection, activate the Select Similar command and the QCAD instantly selects all lines and circles(no matter length) with that same layer. I can then change the layer of all of them instantly.
Or if I have a peace with a lot of circles, that aren’t in a block, in one time I want to change the layer or diameter of all circles in a certain part of the drawing.
I select the circle and activate the Select Similar command, the QCAD automatically selects all circles with the same layer and I deselect the circles that I don’t want with a box desselection and change the layers of them, or the diameter via properties.. and etc.
There is a workaround, that would be working with activating or deactivating layers, but the select similar would be a faster shortcut.
Thanks Andrew and team!

Yes, there is a workaround that is duplicate and rename the block prior to the editing, but a save as seems to work easier.

Hello dear CAM developers!
I need to use the same tool at different spindle speed in a single machining file. I would deeply appreciate if you could add a Spindle Speed edit field in the CAM Profile Toolpath edit window in order that each Toolpath can have its own Spindle Speed value (same as you did for Feed Rate and Plunge Rate)
FYI, the tool on my concern is a laser who’s power is driven by the Spindle Speed PWM signal. I need to be able to do both engraving and cutting in a single file. Alas! this laser tool is defined with a fix and unique number (99). Therefore I cannot define different laser tools with different speeds.
Many thanks Best regards.

2196 | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | Low | Leader: Arrow removed on load if arrow only fits first ... | Closed | |
1 |
Task Description
Andrew, This is bugging me for over a year now. I filed it as a feature request as it is dismissed twice as a possible bug on the forum. In both cases the advice is to only use Specific Scale 0 for Leaders. (... and adapt all other dimensions to that)
I am aware that an arrow head has to fit twice on the first leg of a Leader Entity.
The size is set global in the Drawing Preferences under Dimension Settings: ‘Text Height’. Under Dimension Settings, there is also a global ‘Size scale factor’. And every dimension entity has a Specific Property called ‘Scale’ that supersedes this global ‘Size scale factor’.
Proof of concept: Dim size 5 and for any regular dimension. 1) Size scale factor 1, Specific Scale 0 » text height & arrow length = 5 units. 2) Size scale factor 2, Specific Scale 0 » text height & arrow length = 10 units. 3) Size scale factor 2, Specific Scale 1 » text height & arrow length = 5 units. 4) Size scale factor 1, Specific Scale 2 » text height & arrow length = 10 units. 5) Size scale factor 10, Specific Scale 0.5 » text height & arrow length = 2.5 units. 6) Size scale factor 99, Specific Scale 0.1 » text height & arrow length = 0.5 units. → Obvious is that the ‘Specific Scale’ supersedes the dimensions ‘Size scale factor’.
Those two last Leader arrows (2.5 & 0.5 long) would definitely fit twice on an 8 units long first Leader leg! And they do perfectly while drawing them.
However, the arrow will be reset when the file is saved & loaded.
For case 5 the first leg has to be (2 times 5×10) 100 units or over so an arrow 2.5 long remains on save (=40 times). In the absurd case 6 that would be (2 times 5×99) 990 units or over for an arrow only 0.5 units long (=1980 times). Verfied and true.
It seems that on save/load: The Specific Scale is not taken into consideration while evaluating ‘At least twice’.
Apart from that they render fine when first drew. And reappear when setting the arrow back on again after load.

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.

Origin: I like to start my CAM paths at low curvature instead starting at high curvature. Ellipses may explode with the startpoint at the tip. (file Y2)
Documented in 3.25.2.4, reproducible under 3.25.2.7
File included with 4 LayerStates - Original Ellipses: Y1 - Exploded to polylines (32 segments): Y2 - Direct after XP, OR performs different on the left top one: Y3 - Faulty solutions by OR: Y4 (= saved state)
The results may differ with the saved explosions.
With the file. Y1 TA XP Relocate startpoint with OR to an existing reference (called ‘End’)

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.

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)

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.

Most likely not related to the QCAD version, rather an old sore.
File included Topic: https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=7889#p30803 Confirmed by ‘cccplex’ Linux ‘Latest Ubuntu’
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.
There is also still the faulty rendering with Z not zero https://qcad.org/bugtracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=1923
