error when checking for updates in 3.1.2

Hi
I tried to compile latest source to good old OS/2
I use Qt 6.2.4 and gcc 12.2.0
The build failed here....
Could you help me out to fix this error:

Just bought the software, seems to be fine except of the problem described in the title

Hi, I open a drawing with Qcad2 and:
- The hatch angle is changed
- The linetype is continuos for all lines
- The “white paper” in print view not show

I add a screenshot

Greetings

Attempting to modify text on drawing: error info -

In the Application Preferences (but also in the Drawings Preferences) → Dimension → Default Dimension Settings → Label Format → Linear (and Angular) Dimension → Show Trailing Zeros, the example is wrong if the option is checked.

QCAD V3.19
Error at copy with ref point and paste

Look at the video

for testing
I made a litte drawing, then select all
then make copy with refpoint, set refpoint
then insert it

Result: the copy is mirrored and with factor 1.2 greater then original

Erroneous block recursion detected when placing, moving large blocks due to update interruption on mouse moves.

In order to type a diacritical letter (e.g. with ' (é) or " (ö)), MacOS does not repeat the letter when a key is pressed continuously. Instead a dialog appears which allows the user to select one of the diacritics related to the letter of the key pressed. In QCAD and presumably QT, keeping the key pressed starts typing the letter repeatedly while after the first letter is typed the selector for the diacritical letters appears. So you can still the select e.g. the ü but you have to delete all the u’s that were typed before you were able to release the key.

A stop gap measure is to minimise the ‘key repeat delay’ setting in keyboard preferences so that its easier to stop the repetition in time, but that influences other programs as well.

I suppose this is a QT dependency and hase less to do with QCAD. Still, I wanted to let you know.

Its an ‘acceptable’ nuisance

Add option to line input context menu to enter a distance from the drawing, measured from two points.
Perhaps existing measuring tools can be re-used to feedback values into line edits to avoid duplication.

Morning, I found a bug.
Andrew, Thank you very much.

Original file: 跨海大桥.dwg

Converted file: 跨海大桥.pdf

Bug Description file: problem3.png

As you see, all the Chinese fonts are drawed as ???

Starting QCAD opens new empty drawing (Untitled 1).

After I open existing drawing, “Untitled 1” tab title changes to the name of newly opened drawing.

Hello,
I’m still evaluating qcad, and am currently working on some competition drawings.
Positive things first:
The respective drawing (a site plan delivered by the city authorities) containes one big solid hatch that is made of hundreds of closed boundaries. While this brought BricsCAD (my main program) to its knees, qcad handles this file with complete ease, congratulations!

But after some hours of work, I stumbled over a quite nasty bug: I tried to draw a polyline in model space, and got a “transaction failed” message (although the current layer was not locked) and then suddenly all entities in the drawing just disappeared. I checked my block definitions, and they too were empty. I therefore saved the drawing under a new name and closed it. However, there was no sign of qcad becoming unstable - it opened the previous version of the file without problems (I restarted the program nonetheless...).

Attached are the empty file (V1-2_corrupted.dwg), the last intact save before (V1-2.dwg), and logs of the command line as well as of the console.

Running audit in BricsCAD on V1-2.dwg just lists 57 errors like this:
Name: AcDbTextStyleTableRecord(6446)
Value: Last height 0
Validation: Not >0
Default value: Set to 2.5

Hope this can give some hints - if not, don’t waste time on it, I would come back to it should I encounter such a problem again.

Recently I ran into the problem, that the font, which I used on Linux was not installed on the Windows-Computer which is connected to the Laser-Cutter. So it was not engraved correctly.

I suggest adding an option to be able to embed a font into the drawing, so that text is rendered with the intended font regardless on which system you open the drawing.

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.

It is not possible to draw ellipse aligned to bounding box.
Please see constructed red “EP” and green “El” compared to white circle,
bounding box [-100,+100][-100,+100].

Not all intersections points between ellipses and circles or other ellipses are found.
This is due to too tight tolerances.

See:
http://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=4574

All drawing elements belonging to a layer are not existing anymore after:

1. the layer has been made invisible (unselect the eye symbol of the layer),
2. the drawing has been saved,
3. the drawing has been closed
4. and finally the drawing is reopened.

This behavior has been observed on the following OSes:

• Windows XP SP3
• Ubuntu 11.04

I bought the QCAD Professional and tried the Electronics library which was linked to the qcad.org website. When loading symbolms, the symbols are not shown correctly.

Please have a look at the screenshot.

To reproduce, enter the text (te): “a\n b”. Then bring up the edit text dialog (mt). The spaces before the “b” are gone.

Exploded a simple text A into polylines. exploded polylines into lines and arcs. modified by using trim and break out segment. result makes a bunch of zero length entities. can be found and eliminated by using detect zero length, but casual user just see a bunch of errors in the dxf r21 file.

as you can see the coordinates are wacko and start and end angles are the same.

Editing box and text insertion does not show fonts installed on Linux Mint 18.1, but Linux on the virtual machine works. Versions 3.16.6 and 13.16.7 were tested. The only source shown in the list of options is “standart”.

Hello,
Just started with the program. I opened drawing made under 2.2 pro to modify it. Everything works ok (deleting entities) but as soon as I start removing unused layers, I get an error message when trying to save my work (photo attached). The previouly saved file becomes an empty file...Working on Win7x64, logged as admin.

The Edit Library File option in the drop-down menu when you right-click a library item does not work

see:
http://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=3466

Despite the toolbar “Cancel” option it would be nice if we could terminate BB also with an “Esc” or “QQ” keystroke like every other tool.

It might be an oversight from my side, but when I do Edit Block from reference, I don’t see how I can go back to the original drawing.

If a hatch is selected, then rotated or scaled and this is undone afterwards, the hatch is not selected anymore.

Open the example drawing,
selected all,
copy to clipboard,
open new drawing,
paste clipboard content with a scale of 1:1, check preview = everything ok,
change scale to 1/10 etc., check preview = block references way of.

QCAD Pro Version 3.24.0.1

Copy block reference in drawing with one unit (e.g. Inch).
Paste into drawing with other unit (e.g. Millimeter) using a rotation while pasting.

If I insert a content from the Clipboard to the drawing a new Relative Zero Point isn’t created.
I’m not able to use e.g. a restriction regarding to the last inserted content. QCAD will use the last Relative Zero Point in the drawing even if I already inserted a content.

Screenshot:
Clipboard content = circle

1. First insert

Restriction horizontal

2. Second insert

Copy - Paste to current layer from an other drawing creates empty layers, where the entities orininated from, in the drawing where they are pasted to.

Setting the paper size to A5 yields an invalid page size.

Printer settings cannot be changed for model space.

Clicking “Set to Printer Margins” has no effect.

Scale value is not loaded from drawing and shown as 1:1 if the scale is stored as a number.

Button for point display mode 99 broken.

If I use the Copy/Cut with Reference Clipboard function I can’t use the “Coordinate” or “Polar coordinate” snap to determine the reference point.
I have the feeling that just the option box isn’t shown ....

If I apply “copy with reference” to any block, the block’s draw order is changed to -2147483648 (-0×80000000).

The very first entity drawn / loaded does not preserve its drawing order when copied / pasted.
