1887 | dwg2bmp | Feature Request | Low | Add "-max-lineweight" option for dwg2bmp | Assigned | |
2 |
Task Description
Hi there,
A friendly request to add the option to set a maximum lineweight for raster conversions via dwg2bmp.
Depending on the LW configuration of the CAD file, rasterization operations sometimes yield terrible results (see attachment). This would also mirror the similar “-min-lineweight” options available on “dwg2svg” and “dwg2pdf” (although not on “dwg2bmp”).

Thanks!

1888 | dwg2bmp | Feature Request | Low | Add support to disable hatch rendering on "dwg2bmp" | Assigned | |
1 |
Task Description
Hi!
A friendly request to add an option to disable hatch rendering on “dwg2bmp” conversions.
Depending on the nature of the conversion and the density of the hatch, this may render unintelligible images (see attachments). The option could look like “-t, -nohatch” to indicate hatches should be hidden before rendering. This could potentially become an option too for “dwg2svg” or “dwg2pdf.”
Amazing product, thank you so much!

Task Description
I am doing a bit of landscaping and using a (big) ortophoto as one of my layers in order to sanity-check on the ground measurements.
The layer contains a point and the image and nothing else.
The image is a 8MB file: “PNG image data, 4200 x 2980, 8-bit/color RGB, non-interlaced” and it is scaled to 210 coordinate units (meter) horizontally in the drawing.
With approx 50% probability the image disappears during Save, as see for instance in this diff of the DXF file:

The point in the same layer does not similarly disappear, the bug only seems to affect images.
I have seen this bug from version 3.7.5.0 to git as of yesterday (63e06c778926a803bdfbffdf27b8c24d41511072).
I have not been able to correlate the bug with anything.
Looking closer at the DXF file (attached), there seems to be some residuce of attempts to insert images in protected/invisible layers, so this may be some kind of refcounting issue.
(Any chance of getting FreeBSD into the “Operating System” field ?)

Task Description
Andrew,
It took me a while to find the source of a certain freak bug I encountered. I used the RLine.isParallel(RLine) as a test for knowing if line segments were parallel or not.
Included below is script code that mimics the functionally of isParallel().
As far as I know isParallel() is nowhere used in the QCAD open source. Textual only found in RLine.cpp & .h or under: opennurbs, ecmaapi\generated and ecmagenerator\src.
// Example:
// RShape1: RLine(RShape(address: "0xcd70e28"), startPoint: "RVector(969.219858, -171.914894, 0.000000, 1)", endPoint: "RVector(1010.000000, -140.000000, 0.000000, 1)")
// RShape2: RLine(RShape(address: "0x7659770"), startPoint: "RVector(969.219858, -171.914894, 0.000000, 1)", endPoint: "RVector(930.000000, -340.000000, 0.000000, 1)")

763 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Hatching with just one click | Assigned | |
10 |
Task Description
My task: To hatch an area.
Right now, if I want to fill an area with a hatch pattern, I have to select all the enclosing objects (lines, arcs) and then I can select the hatch tool. That can be under some circumstances a tedious task. To illustrate this, I created a simple example (see Attachment 1: Hatching.png).
Step 1: Create a rectangle. Step 2: Draw four vertical lines. Step 3: Select the four lines surrounding the first area. –> Problem! The horizontal lines are too long. Step 4: Divide the long horizontal lines of the rectangle where the vertical lines touch. Now the lines surrounding the three areas can be selected. Step 5: Hatch the selection. Done.
Just for fun try recreating my second example (see Attachment 2: Hatching2.png)
Therefore I would like to suggest a far more simple approach.
Step 1: Select the Hatch Tool. Step 2: Click inside the area you would like to be hatched. Done.
Of course that would mean that the hatch style is already pre-defined and can be changed later, if needed.
In this way productivity can be increased by ... [fill in you own estimate] ... times.
Example 2 would need only 13 clicks to hatch all the areas (including the hatch tool button).

2018 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Layer visibility setting per view/view-port | Assigned | |
6 |
Task Description
In a medium complex drawing it’s often too much details to have all layers in a drawing visible at once. Also, it is of great importance to be able to have a single model to avoid duplication of work and risk inconsistency.
So i would like to create a number of views where each view has selected layers visible (that makes sense for the purpose of the view) and then assign the views to different layout blocks (using view-ports) in paper-space to be able to setup printing of several views on the same page/PDF
This also means that view-ports would have to be aware of what view they are displaying (if any besides the standard-view). This will then make it possible for printouts of different views with selected layers visible (different for each view and view-port) and still have only one model. Today this is not possible.
As it is today the only limited workaround is to set the layers you want to display, print/PDF of that viewport on separate page, and then change it for the next page, and so on. The big drawback is that you cannot have two different views/view-ports on the same page with different layers visible. Also, for large drawing it is painful to have to do a lot of manual setup for each rendering of the complete drawing.

Hi,
from time to time I need to place a circle etc precisely between two entity’s - what is a lot of construction work to get it correct. With the new “Info tool “Distance Entity to Entity” we have already the base for a new snap tool which could help to get rid of the time consuming construction process in cases like this. I would appreciate to get a new snap tool which is able to figure out the shortest distance between to entity’s and then will snap to the middle of it.
Pic 1: Given situation Pic 2: Result after using this new snap tool
Would it make also cense to have a second new snap tool which works opposite for the furthermost distance between two entity’s?

This is a trim method I am missing in Qcad.
20 years ago it existed in CadKey. You had a bunch of lines or segments. You defined a (new) line or segment as cutter. ‘Trim All’. You pointed at the side of the cutter entity to trim all intersecting at that side.
Pritty the same as in this topic: https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?t=5221
Only in rare cases I can use Husky’s workaround as pro. It all depends on what else is in the clipping rectangle that is needed to trim all intended. If of no use all single crossing entities have to be chosen one by one.

I also use AutoCAD Mechanical 2012 and the BOM is synced with every balloon on the drawing. Making it easy to edit.
The core BOM accepts formula fields and we can easily calculate the mass of a part, with some Ifs and math.
The BOM that is shown in the actual drawing is more simplistic, and has just Part number, Quantity, Mass and the Description. But it’s related to the “core BOM”.
It’s a very interesting thing! It would be great on QCad.
