Create dimension with fixed extension line length.
Set scale to 2.
Save / Load or Reload.

→ Extension line length no longer fixed.

See the steps to reproduce in the attached drawing.

QCadPro (snapshot, but can be reproduced with 3.24.3 as well)

OS: MacOS 10.14.6
Version: 3.24.3.8 (3.24.3.8)
Build Date: Jun 3 2020
Revision: 828df3a
Qt Version: 5.13.2
Architecture: x86_64
Compiler: Clang 10.0.0

To reproduce:
1. Add some text to a drawing
2. Double click on the text to open the text-edit dialogue
3. Select all text, change font, press OK

Expected behavior: The font has been updated

Actual behavior: The font seems to visually change in the edit box but as soon as you press OK to close the dialogue the text on the drawing is not changed. Viewing the text with the font information (via properties) it can be seen that the embedded font information has not been updated.

Workaround:
- Select text and edit the properties

Case:

Drawing unit = inch,

Dimension Label Format set to Engineering or Architectural,

- Create hatch with pattern “ANSI31” (or other).
- Move cursor along boundary with auto snap
- Auto snap finds intersections between hatch pattern and boundary or other entities close to the hatch boundary

I can’t print from Q-cad in Win 10 latest update. Q-cad says it has sent it to the printer but does not print.
To make it work I print to a PDF file then send it to the printer. I was able to print prior to the update.

I have checked and rechecked the settings in Q-cad as well as my Firewall and printer. All other programs print ok.

I tried printing from my Win 7 computer and all works fine.

Please advise.

Trim, or round do not work between the green line and the magenta arc. The line properties do not report the length correctly.

Info - distance reports the distance between the end point of the magenta arc and the start point of the red arc as .1534. the Property editor reports the green line length as .257.

If the length of the green line is edited to .5 inches then trim and round work properly, and the green line length is reported properly. The other line/arc intersections have been edited in this manner.

Polyline’s areas don’t shows own property in Property Editor

Double hyphens in text entities lead to double hyphens in SVG comments which is not valid.

The property editor offers for an Angular Dimension the option to make a fixed extension (yes/no) but the input field for a length is missing.

This code was executed in the Script Shell window. Then the program is failing of and closed.

a = addLine(0,0,100,100);
lengthen(a, true, 50); // success
lengthen(a, true, 50); // FAILED!

Take any random drawing (as far as I can tell), select (at least) one object, then export to PDF. The “highlight attribute” (for lack of a better word) of the object will unexpectedly be exported.

wrong objects are selected while selecting region with mouse.
Actions:Trying to select small rectangle area using mouse while holding left mouse button. (ScreenShot_1.png)
Expected result: only objects inside selection rectangle (text, lines, rectangles) are selected.
Factual result: objects inside selection rectangle are selected as well as other objects which are farther away (marked with purple arrows in ScreenShot_2.png)

When I run bbox with the attached file I get inconsistent results if I run it 6 or 10 times.

Sometimes the size is 448979.2349223149/310815.2964427199 (it thinks that there is an object at 0,0)
sometimes it is 338.0789223148604/302.31644271989353 (this is what I think is correct)

Windows / Linux

Upgraded from 3.24.3 to 3.25.2 on lubuntu 18.04
QCAD/CAM hangs during startup, but managed to get it running by renaming libqcadgles3d.so to libqcadgles3d.so.orig.
Don’t understand why 3.24.3 still works ok without having to do this.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks.

A solid fill hatch works as expected in the attached file and prints OK, but after saving the file and reopening, the hatch has disappeared.

XLine entities are not split up correctly into rays and a line at the rectangular edge.

To reproduce:

1. Draw a rectangle.
2. DH, draw a dimension (the base dimension).
3. Move that dimension’s text to a new position.
4. DC, continue that dimension.

The text of the continued dimension will show up on top of that of the base dimension. Expected behaviour would be that it would show up on top of the continued dimension (standard placement).

Please see attached pic.

Case: Tested with the example drawing provided below:
https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=7776

If I select every single entity piece by piece with the mouse pointer the total length is correct.
If I select everything in once with a rectangular or a polyline selection the total length is incorrect.

Under Linux the quantity is not correctly interpreted.

Good night,

I have attached three print screen. One showing the print preview mode, one showing the normal drawing mode and the last one showing the
result pdf (that looks like the print preview draw).

Thank you for your great work on this project.

Create block with attribute definition (attribute definition has lowest draw order in block).

Create block reference from block.

Modify > Stretch with area around block reference.

Block reference does not move.

With the attached file:
Viewing Layout1
Changing ON/OFF or Frozen state of layers in the Layer List

The view doesn’t update immediate.
Selecting an entity: Yes
After QQ Yes
Switching to another Application and reverting the focus back to QCAD: Yes
Using zoom / pan or the Zoom functions: No
Changing the display modes: Yes
Starting an action: No

Status change for Visibility is without any effect on Viewports in Paper_Space.

Case:
Entities drawn on a layer in Model_Space. Visibility on/off works.
Situation covered with a Viewport, placed in Paper_Space, Edit content launched for that Paper_Space, Visibility on/off doesn’t works.

It was properly working in previos QCAD versions ...

Using version 3.25.2.4

Add or change text.
Inside the rich tab I try to change the text height.
The program freezes.
Tried with different fonts.

Path data might contain leading zeroes to indicate an implicit separator:

“1 02” should be equivalent with “1 0 2”, not “1 2”.

Rectangle with Size (RS) doesn’t update the Fill, RoundCorners & Radius settings shared under the [Shape] header in QCAD ini.

Explained as group synchronization while the Polygon methods have more settings in common, although not shared.

In the summary there are more minor issues listed.
All have a bar in the Options Toolbar that disappears after the first is drawn.

I rather would opt for all individual settings ...
... or all grouped.

Found two very minute Line segments where the Width is set zero.
Revision dxf included.

Referring to the grid they are rendered about 0.0002 long.
They are in the order of 5e-15 and less or simply zero long in this case (<1ULP).
Results may vary in length ... and vary after Save/Revert.

Include file was open when using ‘Edit Block In-place (BB)’ in an other drawing.
Happend on 5/1/2021 just before 2:56 am
https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?&t=7945#p31055

‘Edit Block In-place (BB)’ is never used in this drawing.
There was never a Block in this file.
I might have switched focus.

Re-installed QCAD a dozen times meanwhile.
Wiped all what remained of QCAD twice.
Cleaned up the windows registry twice.
Lastly left out all kinds of my custom scripts.
Simply a bare install with the msi file.

How to replicate:
- Start QCAD in normal mode
- Load included file
- Set App.Prefs .. Startup .. Restore open files
- Close QCAD
- Start QCAD in debugger mode
(-rescan -enable-script-debugger -always-load-scripts)

Boot fails.
Every successive trial.

When booting in normal mode I see the BB options toolbar blink shortly.

3 Screengrabs in DebuggerModeError.zip in the same topic.
The blink I can’t catch.

I can Boot with no file to retore on open in debugger mode and load the file.
I have several of those files, all were open that day at 2:56 am
