100% cpu snap intersection

Post by archon » Wed Aug 21, 2013 2:50 pm

Hello,
I consider buying qcad pro, but first i wanted to try it out. I downloaded latest trial version 3.2.1 for linux 64bit. I am running slackware 14 64bit on lenovo notebook with amd Iliano apu. When I use autosnap (with snap intersection) or snap intersection alone with any tool, qcad freezes with 100% cpu use. Time needed for things to come back to normal is longer when there is more snap points around the pointer, but normally is about 5 to 10 seconds. I searched bug tracker but found nothing. What could be the problem? Thanks

Thanks for the report. Can you submit the drawing file for testing (you can attach it to your post or e-mail it to me if it is not for the general public). Thanks.

Hello archon and welcome to the forum.
Are you able to attach a file here on the forum which demonstrates this problem ?

Here it is

edit:
I've made some testing with other drawing in dxf, house project, definately bigger one and the problem was present only on the signature on the bottom. So i thought about text and deleted all text (from the file I attached)- the problem is gone.

Yes I've just tested this and I confirm that it is a problem with the Text. For now turn off the layer text and the snap tools should work properly.

In my test as soon as I placed the text QCAD froze and I had to force a quit of the application!

Your welcome, yes I can confirm that for me the snap tools are working as expected both on my test case and archon's submitted drawing :wink:
