Task Description

When opening a DXF created by 2.2.2 the block entities are sometimes not being drawn in correct position and orientation.

The following is seen on the console (Which I think is related)

Debug: importing entities in block ' “Sw1pwo” '
Warning: RDwgBlockReferenceImporter::import: block reference references invalid block: “*X15”

and also (which is probably not related)
Debug: importing entities in block ' “A$C6329746C” '

Debug: RSpline: knotVector ignored
Debug: RSpline: knots: 11
Debug: RSpline: order: 4

Drawing file shown.

This could be a bug in 2.2.2, but it would be nice to ensure 3 can pull in old drawings without us having to rework them all.

Task Description

Hi Andrew

In Ubuntu 11.10 and Windows 7 everything so far is working ok in QCAD apart from the Library browser!

1.In Win 7-64 I can run the browser and make a new folder, but when I try to set the permissions/open the folder - browser crashes.

2.In ubuntu 11.10 I first uninstalled RC2 then installed RC4. QCAD program runs ok but this time when I try to open up the browser (not a new folder)I get an error message stating that I do not have permissions to open the first file (vehicle -I think!)in RC2? If I select OK in the warning window the warning just keeps on repeating the same message for the next and subsequent files until I quit it.

 563 QCAD (main)Bug ReportMedium Hatches and colors transformed in Q3 Closed
100%
Task Description

To check compatibility for the same .dxf drawing prepared with Q2, I prepared 2 copies, one with a “_Q2” suffix and the other with “_Q3”. I managed to keep an operational Q2 system on the same Win7-HomeEditionPremium-64bits PC. As you can guess, I opened each copy with the relevant QCAD version.

In each version, I selected the same hatch layer and list here their properties along with a hardcopy of a display of a similar part of the hatched area, with blue lines showing the differences in hatching, apparently the density.
Q2 : Solid:False, Scale:3.00, Angle:0, Name:ar-brelm ; the color is described in its panel as 20,255,255 and 255,85,0 (left colum first from top to bottom).
Q3 : all identical values but Scale:0.78189.

Another comparison with a global view of the same drawing. Just notice how the hatching in the areas at the bottom are different (red lines). Also, I noticed that increasing the zoom let the hatching appear in the Q3 version instaed of the grey homogenous color, but the hatching in Q3 remains more dense than in the Q2 version.
Q2 : Solid:False, Scale:1.00, Angle:0, Name:ar-conc : color is a standard grey (0,0,128 & 128,128,128)
Q3 : Solid:False, Scale:0.246063, Angle:0, Name:AR-CONC : color is qualified as “custom” even with the same values.
Both have “centimeter” as drawing units.

Then I opened another Q2 drawing with Q3. I elected to hide all layers then to show all of them. And the color hatching of some aras were then modified. See 3rd picture with all black areas. (Just changing the layers shown or hidden was enough to not allow to close the drawing without a save...).

Than you for your attention or letting me know which setting can correct the differences.

 580 QCAD (main)Bug ReportMedium Black color reverted to white color on each close Closed
100%
Task Description

Hello,

When I started Q3, I selected a White background in the initial dialog window. I opened a copy of a good Q2 file and saw that ALL entities with Q2 Black/White color where forced to be White. Andrew explains this as a mean to avoid unreadable items against the background colors. Remember I selected White as background ? I guess Black/White entities could be better kept as Black ?

Following Andrew’s advice, in Application Preferences =⇒ Graphics View, I unchecked the Auto correct black and white colors check box. The background settings is white. OK.

I went through a process of changing the White color for several layers to Black. I also had to change the color codes for the hatch areas. For instance, the hatch area layer “055_F_Murs” has “14-76-255 / 255-197-179” values in Q2. Why these values are auto corrected to “30-128-255 / 255-191-127” ?

After these changes, I saved the file, closed Q3 and opened the file again.

Catastrophique ! All “Black/White” layers were back to Black and the hatch colors were back to the “auto corrected” values.

Changing the background color to black then white seemed to solve the problem : the layers kept the Black color. Actually it was just an illusion.

Yesterday too much confident, I spent the whole day, modifying layers to Black, adding new layers also Black or custom color, checking the line weight (replacing the “default” (?) value of 0.25 mm with my preferred default value of 0,00 mm, I’ve posted on the forum about this) and so on. I saved the file, closed it.
To-day, nearly all layers have lost their colors :
- Black ones are again White,
- custom color are “auto corrected” as above for “055_F_Murs”,
- only the standard non Black/White colors are preserved, like Blue, Magenta etc.

At this point, I can’t continue using QCAD 3 with enough reliability as my color settings are always lost. This is why I qualify this bug as CRITICAL.
I don’t want to use a Black background or a Light Blue one. Why do you think all old “green on black VDU” were replaced with “black/color on white” displays, to begin by Apple ?

NB I already reported this but can’t find it in the list (maybe because I forgot to enter a summary ? No warning, happily I had a copy with Notepad), sorry for the duplicate.

 688 QCAD (main)Bug ReportMedium QCAD3: Deadlock happens during text operation when one  ...Closed
100%
Task Description

I just use QCAD3 for the first time. I work with OpenSuse 12.2.
After having unpacked the downloaded package, I am able to start QCAD3 with the QCAD command icon.
Check shows that i used the most actual version.
Obviously no further installation steps are necessary.
I am able to draw some lines, etc.
However, when trying to select a font, I recognized that the computer hangs at least for 5 minutes.
The CPU load is about 50%, and i am not able to move the mouse and to do anything else.
During this time, sometimes there is access to disk, sometimes not.
So, in order lo cancel the hanging, i must make a hard system reboot.
Before i have entered the font selection, i have tried to look into the help options.
However, It was not possible to get the FAQs and the QCAD forum, so i am not aware about similar documented problems.
I have looked after similar bugs, using the words ‘text, font’. No similar bugs found.

 707 QCAD (main)Bug ReportMedium segmentation fault on every start - after crash Closed
100%
Task Description

I was drawing on a drawing done in qcad2 - and now working on it in qcad3 - where I had saved it in the new dxf 2010 format (if this has any relevance) and then the computer ran out of power (old battery - I missed that I hadn’t turned on external power) - and shut down hard.

When I rebooted and tried to start qcad - it crashed on startup - giving only this output:
Debug: TIMER: 42 ms - “loading plugins”
Debug: TIMER: 459 ms - “initializing plugins”
./qcad/qcad: line 38: 2955 Segmentation fault (core dumped) LD_LIBRARY_PATH=”$DIR” “$binary” $OPT1 $OPT2 “$@”

I then tried removing the entire qcad-3.0.0-prof-linux-alt-x86 folder - and unpackaging the install tar.gz again.

It then started up and came to initializing plugins - 79% - and just hung - I’ve attached screenshot.

After I ctrl+c’ed it - it segfaulted and now it won’t even show the startup splash again.

I’m guessing qcad has saved some state somewhere.. but qcad hasn’t made a ~klavs/.qcad - so I don’t know where it is.

I would very much like to be able to use qcad again :(

 727 QCAD (main)Bug ReportMedium 100% CPU Usage with 3.0 Final Version. Closed
100%
Task Description

I am continuing my testing on version 3.0 Final.

I noticed that, with 3.0 Final open, the service “syslogd” (on OSX Leopard PPC) does get CPU consumption up to 100%, making the machine unusable.

This has never happened with the RC2 version.

It’s possible to have a copy of RC2 while they investigated the problem? Unfortunately I have not kept a copy.

 739 QCAD (main)Bug ReportMedium QCAD fails to open a DXF file generated by itself Closed
100%
Task Description

QCAD does not manage to load an DXF file created by itself (presumably, I don’t remember excactly, could be the last 2.x version). When selecting File ⇒ Open on the file in attachment, QCAD shows a pop-up reporting the following error :

Cannot open file
»‘/home/gillonr/Documents/Projects/Familly/Br.../Chambre Parents/Plans/Plan-PaterNoster.dxf’.
» Please check your access rights, the file format and file extension.

The file permissions are OK, there is no issue of disk space on the volume where the file reside or where the QCAD distribution is installed or at any other critical location. The problem does not happen on other files created with QCAD, so it appears to be data dependent.

The file causing trouble in QCAD can be imported in LibreOffice 3.4.2 w/o reporting errors (but that application does not provide the suitable methods / tools to edit this format...).

(1) Is there a way to activate debugging when reading in data from a DXF ?
(2) Is there some tool (ev. 3rd party) allowing to check that the data is clean ?
(3) Can someone identify the cause of the problem (presumably some data construct or maybe corruption) ?
(4) In case it would turn out that the problem is a QCAD bug, is there a work-around (I need these drawings...).

Version - 3.1, binary.

If I “Draw text” with text “aaaa bbbb” - it displays correctly, but when I enter “аааа бббб” (with russian keyboard) - I see that “аааа” and “бббб” are displayed one above other - see screenshot.

The same problem is for imported .dxf file with russian texts in it. Problem makes the solution as a whole actually inusable for (at least, some of) russian users.

 875 QCAD (main)Bug ReportMedium malloc.h is deprecated Closed
100%
Task Description

This concerns the third-party openNURBS project and should probably be reported there, but I failed to find a bug tracker or anything of the sort, so here it goes.

malloc.h is deprecated (it has not been required since at least SUSv2, ratified in 1997). Apparently FreeBSD takes a more explicit stance against the use of it than other systems. The attached patch does away with it in openNURBS (conservatively leaving it in on Linux, but that should not really be neccessary either).

This makes the openNURBS component buildable on FreeBSD (9).

 905 QCAD (main)Bug ReportMedium Text tool regression Closed
100%
Task Description

Happened somewhere between ab3e02 (works) and 67516a (doesn’t work).

In 67516a (current HEAD), when I attempt to launch the Text tool, the following is printed on stderr:

Warning:  Script Exception:
 "ReferenceError: Can't find variable: RTextBasedData" 
Warning:  "<anonymous>()@/tmp/qcad/scripts/Draw/Text/TextDialog/TextDialog.js:838"          

The Tool options toolbar does appear and it can be interacted with. The Text tool does not appear at all (and text input in the Toolbar can not be placed either).

In ab3e02, the Text tool works as usual.

Hope I got it right this time – several clean builds have been made to double-check results.

100%
Task Description

When we create a draft in version 2.2.2 we put dashed lines and the length is 0. We see a dash lines. (see attach file).

When we open the same draft in the version 3.3.2 we don’t see the dashed lines we see a continous lines.

If I changed in the dxf this lines DASHED 370 0 per DASHED 370 5 and changes the preference of the drawing it’s work.

But we don’t want to open all of 180000 drawings to change the length of the dashed lines from 0 to 5. We want that the version 3 print the dashed lines as the version 2.

Thanks

Eric
