2374 | QCAD/CAM | Feature Request | Low | Add Spindle Speed to Toolpath Dialog | Assigned | |

Task Description
When editing an existing toolpath to update the parameters of the selected tool, we can update the Feed Rate and the Plunge Rate, but I couldn’t find any way to update the Spindle Speed.
Even when using the Edit Tool KE button, we can edit parameters of the tool on concern but none of the modification is applied to the current Toolpath because as I see, tools parameters are copied fron tools definitions to a Toolpath only at creation of this Toolpath, but Toolpath are not updated accordingly.
Could you please add an edit field for Spindle Speed in the CAM Profile Toolpath window?
Many thanks’, and best regards.

Hi!
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.”
Amazing product, thank you so much!

1 |
Task Description
I’ve been able to make this work as proof of concept very easily, but many of the functions are inaccessible/difficult to override from post-processors.
Desired functionality:
1) Enable “Add Profile Toolpath” UI elements all the time (remove setRequiresSelection) 2) CAM Profile Toolpath Dialog: Drop-down menu of available Layers. First option “By Selection Only” 3) “By Selection Only” continues to pass EntityIds of selected objects (existing functionality) 4) Choosing an active Layer will use the Layer as source of EntityIds 5) Any changes to Entities on a Layer will result in those new/removed/changed objects being re-generated without having to manually select and update the tool paths. Either do not recover list of EntityIds from the ToolpathBlock, and instead use “live” each time it’s regenerated, or additional functionality to determine if a LayerId is associated with the Toolpath, and then lookup EntityIds.
I assume the persistence of the Layer selection would be available within the Toolpath, so that it will automatically update EntityIds every time a Toolpath is regenerated, without having to select Entities and updating the toolpath manually.
For large projects, being able to force select objects based upon layer dramatically reduces mistakes and speeds up the workflow.
Thanks

Hi.
I’m working currently a lot with files coming from rhino. Qcad can open them properly any also most operations on them work as usual - except the selection methods.
box select from upper left to lower right works as usual. double click to select all connected entities is broken. (only one entity is selected). box select from lower right to upper left does not select entities touching the selection box. (nothing is selected)
on mac os nothing is selectable with single click. on linux single click sometimes fails (nothing is selected after clicking on a line).
thanks for looking into this :)

Yes, the polygonal area makes absolute sense but many times you have just to check a square or rectangle area!

In addition to that it would be nice to have the possibility to count up or down a couple areas. E.g. I measure area 1 plus area 2 or area 1 minus area 2 ... Maybe just with an additional keystroke like + or -

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.

|
Task Description
Hey, this is the first of my feature suggestion submissions that isn’t tied to a corresponding suggestion thread on the QCAD forum.
Should I always create corresponding feature suggestion threads or is it ok (or better?) to just post ideas here?
Anyway though, here’s the idea:
I noticed that it is relatively easy to use things like the QCAD Split Entities and/or Paste Along Entity tool(s) to create an even set of divisions along a curve or line.
There’s also the Misc → Draw → Counter available too, for automated counting.
These together are useful for creating a “scale ruler” to be printed on a schematic for ease of reference or for use in cases where someone forgets to bring along a physical measuring device or when someone else is using that measuring device.
For example, one could print a to-scale 1 foot long ruler (or whatever other scale is relevant, e.g. 1 inch for small objects or just as a nice scale reference/legend/key) on the schematic page for convenience.
However, it would be nice if there was a convenient tool added to the Dimensions tool category that automated this entire process and was able to create arbitrary ruler-like numbered reference scales along lines (and even better if it also worked on arcs, though less important).
Even better would be if this “auto tick” or “auto ruler” tool supported multiple levels of tick scaling (e.g. 2 or 3) such as what one sees on actual rulers.
For example, an imperial ruler for a foot (I’m in the US currently) will typically having increasingly smaller tick marks added at halfway points between each of the numbered points along the ruler’s scale, which makes using it quickly much easier. For example, it’ll have a half-length tick for half an inch and then a quarter-length tick for each quarter of an inch within an inch (with the inch’s ticks being full length).
It seems like it could be relatively easy to implement that kind of nested tick marking system, which would make it super convenient and pleasant for the user of QCAD to create usable to-scale ruler-like objects wherever they desire them with hardly any effort!
I think this idea would also fit extremely well with existing tools in the Dimensions category and would be useful for many/most QCAD users!
It’s yet another good QCAD feature that could attract more people to buy upgraded copies of QCAD in the future I think!
I hope you implement it. Small conveniences still make a big difference.
Anyway, thanks a bunch again for creating this awesome program!
That’s all the suggestions I have for today.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend and upcoming week, etc!
