Small details

Post by klavs » Mon Nov 07, 2011 9:02 am

Hi - just downloaded qcad 3 - rc1 - for Linux.

1) When I want to select multiple lines - holding ctrl and clicking on the second (and third etc.) does not add them to the selection as it did with qcad2 :(

2) When in printing preview mode - ctrl+p doesn't work. (I have to select it under file to print).

3) The icons for lines etc. are absurdly huge - but that maybe just me - on a 1920x1080 resolution on a 17" screen.

p.s. would you prefer me to open bugs - or is this feedback method fine?

bug: When trying to edit the text on a 90 degree angle text= "(53 sk. + 57mm)..." - it pops up a QT debugger window instead, saying it can't find element simple text.

Here's the dxf:

Also - when trying to open a drawing edited in qcad3, in qcad2 - it's screwed up the layer names (when they have æøå - ie. danish characters in them) - and also layer colors is suddenly changed.

Please try Shift instead.

Edit - Application Preferences - Widgets - CAD Tool Bar - Icon Size

Please use the bug tracker whenever possible, thanks. Please search for existing task (including closed ones) before opening a new one.

[Edit: I read that the wrong way around. QCAD 2 will not be fixed to be forward compatible with QCAD 3, so I closed the task again.]
