1 Task Description

Nach einigen Überraschungen ....

Es ist möglich Layer in nicht eingefügten oder unsichtbar geschalteten Library Items unbemerkt zu löschen ....

Fallbeispiel 1:
Ich arbeite an einer Zeichnung die u.a. den Layer “Gelbe Linie” benutzt.
Ich füge ein Library Item ein was auch einen Layer “Gelbe Linie” hat.
Ich lösche - aus welchen Gründen auch immer - in der Zeichnung das Library Item weil ich es erst später wieder verwenden will.
In der Blocklist ist es natürlich immer noch verfügbar.
In der Zeichnung lösche ich den Layer “Gelbe Linie” da ich diesen nicht brauche brauche - habe aber natürlich nicht im Kopf welche Layer in meinen Blocks verwendet wurden.
Nach einiger Zeit will ich den Block (den aus der Library) wieder einfügen - dieser ist nun aber unbrauchbar da der Inhalt welcher auf dem Layer “gelbe Linie” war fehlt.
Das Library Item neu aus Library laden um das bereits existierende zu reparieren scheitert da das erste nicht überschrieben werden kann. Ich muss den ersten Block löschen um den neuen benutzen zu können.

Fallbeispiel 2:
Da das selbe (löschen der Layer) auch passieren kann bei unsichtbar geschalteten Blöcken kann es dazu führen das ich zig bereits positionierte Blöcke zerstöre und neu platzieren muss um meine Zeichnung zu reparieren.

Fallbeispiel 3:
Ich sehe in meiner Zeichnung einen Layer “Gelbe Linie”. Weiß nicht was das ist - schalte alle Layer unsichtbar außer “Gelbe Linie”. Klicke auf “Auto Zoom” um zu sehen was den auf “Gelbe Linie” ist. Finde nichts = also leer! Lösche Layer “Gelbe Linie”. Der Layer wurde aber von einem im Moment nicht verwendeten Library Block verwendet. Es gibt keinen Hinweis das ich damit ein Library Item zerstören könnte ....

Lange Rede kurzer Sinn: Wäre es machbar/sinnvoll Layer in Blöcken nur löschen zu können wenn ich mich im Edit Modus der Blöcke befinde?

Hi,

I am using mac version and I have annoying issue with trackpad.
I use qcad primary with my trackpad and under application preferences (Graphics View/Navigation), my setting is as follows.
Mouse wheel / two finger swipe: Scroll (Trackpad...
Enable pan gesture : unticked (found that enabling this often goes into pan mode when I am just moving my pointer around)
Limit zoom and scroll to prevent overflows : ticked (hoping that this would prevent weird zooming issue. I will describe what I am experiencing later this page)
Reverse mouse wheel direction for zoom :unticked
Mouse wheel zoom factor: 1.02

Things work as expected:

  • panning with two finger swipe
  • and the rest

Issue I am experiencing:

Often, when I am zooming in and out with two finger gestures, the view suddenly sets to some weird state and my drawing goes off the ruler.
The mouse point remains where it is.

Workaround:
Reset viewpoint with autozoom and navigate around.

Expected zoom behaviour:
I expect viewpoint to zoom in / out at where my mouse pointer is or at least the centre of current view point.

1 Task Description

Win7pro 32bit Qcad 3.23.0

Andrew,
The Arc segments of Polylines with Global or any Local Width render faulty where Global Z or any of the arc’s local Z is not zero.

In the attached drawing setting the Global Z of the inner poly to 5,10,...

The setting of Z to not zero affects the radius of the projected arc and not the bulging of the poly.
It also affects the projected widths of the line inversely, but not by changing the widths properties.

Pritty rare combination! True.
Qcad is 2D native! True.

Flatten will resolve this.

It is not a purely visual rendering fault, the poly will explode as such.

Maybe similar flaw as with uneven scaling blocks with arcs.

Arctic_Eddie reports failing CAM offset at exactly these points !!!
Reported is a faulty arc with radius of over 360,000mm.
- I can not reproduce this under QCAD working further on the Polys with NaNs.
- However the direct offset of such controlpoint Splines is erroneous.
(see file in post 30902)

Arctic_Eddie reports arc radii of over 10,000mm.
- These don’t seem to be faulty.
- I agree that BiArc fitting should be bound to a lower and certainly to an upper limit.
- That should be huge otherwise faint curvature is represented by many
wobbles or too quick by straight lines.
(All this, keeping in mind that QCAD doesn’t return the optimum fitted BiArc, see: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?t=4859)

I have set the grid/snap value to X=.0625 Y=.0625 on all 4 viewports.
When zooming in and out the grid/snap scale changes from .0625 to 3.90625. at this point the grid/snap points differ,
This causes a variation in the grid/snap reference points lending to drawing errors.

example
When I use the grid settings defaults .01, when zooming in and out, the grid/snap scaling doesn’t seem to have this issue.
Other values do, See below.

0%
1 Task Description

Andrew,

I can’t find any documentation concerning OffsetBothSides under Misc .. Modify.
It is not listed in the QCAD features nor in the changelog.

There was a Feature Request FS#1130 for this, I think you might want to close that as being implemented.

The tool asks for a Line, Arc, Circle, Ellipse, Spline or Polyline.
It also seems to act on shapes that can be exploded to such entities like Text, Dimension and Hatch entities.

There may be many ‘Result loop not closed’ or ‘No offsets possible’ warnings when hovering over entities on a drawing.
The preview may be partially, one or two sided and even two sided partially and closed with semi-circles.

I only successfully created a dual offset for open Splines, open or logically open Polylines.
All other attempts result in a single offset at the indicated side.

There are the usual exceptions for Polylines with arc-segments but that is related to small arc segments and being tangentially connected.
Only tested it on a Win7 platform.
I don’t suspect that version 3.27.8 includes a fix for that ... ;-)

Andrew,

Most probably not related to OS or QCAD version.

When hatching an area with Hatch from Segments (HS) there might be false positive warnings on open loops.
It seems that this is related to the orientation of the indicated segments and the order of selection.
The real problematic position is not always the first that is reported.
Loop count is increased even if it is a single loop.

Included a basic test drawing to replicate these.
Further details to replicate the issue are in the file.

In the included screen grab below, left is when drawn cubic, closed periodic, from 4 points.
Right is when the file is re-loaded.

It is hard to select the incorrect shape when pointing near it ... Probably it is referring to the correct internal shape.
After drawing it explodes to a Null length polyline with 2 identical vertices.

I can’t include the error in a file as it reverts on re-load.

The same issue exist for quadratic, closed periodic, from 3 points.

With radii 1341.35667735 and 26 the relative tolerance is 0.00683678 and exceeds the former used fixed tolerance of 1e-4.

These arcs will then be considered to be tangent and the intersection point is 0.31024 units to the left of where we expect it.

Implemented: https://github.com/qcad/qcad/commit/77ae3e4518cc34f178779d2d2c724adcf80c229d#diff-dcc4e31eaeaed5a047f65dbce4ddda4bcd4d604e9e1005ee8481ded273768449

https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=8775&p=34907#p34907

We could limit the tolerance by:
A- The smallest of the fixed and the relative.
B- A relative tolerance based on R2 there circle 1 is forced to be the larger one.

This will never account for the position in the plane.
At a certain point the tolerance will be less than the accuracy/certainty of the values.

1 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)")

// RLine::isParallel(RLine) -> aTest1 || aTest2

2498QCAD (main)Bug ReportLowLight/dark mode UI colours depend on OS theme when QCAD...Assigned
0%
1 Task Description

On macOS 14.1 and QCAD 3.28.2, the state of the OS (light or dark theme) affects some of the QCAD colour palette for the life of the session. So far I’ve noticed the problem with the keyboard shortcuts in tooltips and text in the command line output, but there may be other instances of the problem.

To reproduce:

1. Set the OS to light mode.

2. Start QCAD. Note the keyboard shortcuts in the tooltips are optimised for a light palette.

3. With QCAD still running, switch the OS to dark mode.

4. Note that while most of the QCAD interface switches to a dark mode palette, the keyboard shortcuts in the tooltips do not.

A similar behaviour is observed when starting from dark mode and switching to light mode.

I hope that makes sense. See attached screenshots for examples.

2538QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery LowWeight 2.11 French translation typoAssigned
0%
1 Task Description

Andrew,

When switched to French I detected a typo in the drop down box for Lineweight.

Weight 2.11mm is listed as 1.58mm {2.11m?}
https://github.com/qcad/qcad/blob/master/ts/qcadcore_fr.ts#L1228-L1229
Also see attached image file.


May I ask why only ISO types have a comma instead of a point in French.
The use of a comma is uncommon in the Property Editor even when that is the native decimal separator.
I also detect an extra space between the value and ‘mm’ and that only for the ISO types.

This only occurs in:
https://github.com/qcad/qcad/blob/master/ts/qcadcore_fr.ts https://github.com/qcad/qcad/blob/master/ts/qcadcore_pl.ts https://github.com/qcad/qcad/blob/master/ts/qcadcore_pt.ts


Probably not OS or QCAD version related.

Upon activating the Polygonal Area Tool either by clicking on the toolbar or by the IR keyboard shortcut the tool will persistently draw a polygon without clicking anything. This happens with the mouse and the trackpad on the MacBook Pro. This was happening in 3.29.3, and then after I upgraded to 3.29.4. The MacOS version is 14.1 Sonoma.

0%
1 Task Description

Andrew,

The _DatumFilled Block used by Datum entities (DT) is considered as not used and is purged by Purge Unused Blocks (BP).
There is no block association for these special types of arrowheads in QCAD.

After purging the Datums are not immediately updated but the special arrowheads will eventually disappear. Adding new Datums will not fix that.

Not problematic because the _DatumFilled Block is re-created on save/reload when Datum entities exists. Datums are updated.

Probably not OS or version related.
Related forum topic: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=10694

Best solution would be to support different types of arrowheads and all related:

There is an issue importing from Autocad:
lines and quotes (both arrows and text) appear too much big (see attachment).
I can fix quotes modifying dimensions in “current drawing preferences”, but lines are still too thick.
Autocad’s dxf are opened with right line thickness but wrong quotes.
Furthermore, Autocad opens Qcad’s dxf files showing wrong quotes.
