Text: alignment: simple text starting with spaces or ending in spaces is not aligned correctly.

Text: white text shown as white on white in text dialog

See: aeg_koe_1_H0_A.dxf

Text: non-breaking spaces (\~) at beginning of line does not indent.

QCAD3 does not open dxf-files containing ellipses!
Error Message: Can’t open file, check fileformat, fileextension, accesrights

Loading QCAD 3 layer names with international characters fails in QCAD 2.

e.g. æøå

3 RC1b

Trying to edit a Text calls the Qt Script Debugger with following Message:

Uncaught exception at C:/Programme/QCAD 3rc1b/scripts/Draw/Text\TextDialog/TextDialog.js:170: ReferenceError: Can’t find variable: simpleText
170 simpleText.checked = textDataIn.isSimple();

I’m able to close the Script Debugger but I can’t edit the Text ....

RC1 is lazy in saving appearance to config. I noticed, because it always started with default window size. Maximizing was not carried over, also the panels were consistently reset.

Only when eg. dragging the handle to change cad-toolbar width not from preferences it would write an “appearance” section to the config file.

The appearance section should be written rather sooner than later.

The Snap “Reference” is perfect working on circles.

I would be nice to have this function also on Arc’s.
There are many necessities to attach a Horizontal or Vertical line on an arc or an “ex circle” (circle after a cut,)rounds etc. in a professional drawing.

Hi Andrew

It would be useful to have an option in the Circle tools to be able to draw a circle tangent to other entities such as lines/circles etc.

Auto fit to paper fails with some drawings in inches

e.g. Bathroom mod 2.dxf

Default paper might be configured as 210×297 inches if inch is chosen as default unit.

3.0 RC1

The Stretch Tool works only for one task and than you have to reselect it again for the next task.
Who really works with the stretch tool has to use it (often) a couple times consecutively to get the job done.

It was nice working in 2.2.2.0

In RC1 text in PG SVG will be in the wrong location. The position passed from native code to the SvgExporterPG.prototype.exportEntity is wrong:

Instead of the actual place of the text it gets the position of the surrounding block entity, or, for text that is not in a block, “0,0,0”.

Dimension labels are not affected by this. Also HAlign and VAlign are not passed correctly for text in the model-view block.

- New from template
- Choose template
- File - Save

→ Template is overwritten instead of the “Save As” dialog being shown.

In the “Application Preferences”-menu a click on submenu “Shortcuts and Commands” freeze the application for a view minutes.

Currently lineweights seem to be available up to 2.11mm,how about extending the range for some bigger lineweights!

Good point. I hadn’t thgouht about it quite that way. :)

include() should raise exception if file not found.

This is actually the case but does not seem to work properly.

Javascript exception

Any time user double clicks on text, an exception is raised in the following script:

/qcad-3.0.0-rc1-prof-linux/scripts/Draw/Text/TextDialog/TextDialog.js

Fix is to comment out the line

      //bug.... simpleText.checked = textDataIn.isSimple();

RC1b
To change the postfix for dimension.
Situation: New drawing, Dimension in Drawing, Dimension on one Layer. Menu > Select > Select Layer and click on a dimension. Went to Property Editor > Geometry > Label and change the Label in <>”. Nothing happens.

The same procedure with a other kind of selection works and it works also in the 2.2.2.0

After using Line “Relative Angle” or “Line Orthogonal” the Toolbar is in a loop without showing all the Cad tools such as “Modify” “Hatch” etc..
Escape switch only between the “Lines Menu” and the “Select Menu”. To get all Cad Tools back you have to restart QCad.

Drawing preferences / dimension = Fraction

Info Tool, Polygonal Area shows decimal units instead of fractions.

Simple text tool does not create simple text but mtext.
When changed to simple in property editor, position does not work

Dimensions: Inch / Architectural: supporess 0 feet

Invastiagte QPainter warnings when running QCAD in -no-gui mode

See forum:
http://www.ribbonsoft.com/rsforum/viewtopic.php?t=1653&start=45

Set up fixed grid without any auto scaling or adjusting or meta grid at all.

can’t make a dotted line on a drawing with unit foot.

• drawing unit: foot (length taken from a actual architecture plan)
• layer settings: as shown in the screen shot
• selected line is on layer “dotted”
• line types is shown as continues for almost everything

• show a warning on the QCAD console if someone tries to draw on a locked layer

1. load 2 drawings
2. switch both into print preview
3. see attachment
4. scale combo box shows only “1:1”
5. switching drawings does not update options tool bar from drawing but drawing from options tool bar

• tried different options in print preview (auto scale, auto fit etc.)

1. load attached drawing
2. print preview
3. auto fit pages
4. shows 2 columns (wrong) and 13 rows (correct), see attachment

• Selected entities are exported in the way as they are shown on screen.
• Same applies for highlighted entities.
• See attachment.

• the cells are not shown anymore

• simple drawing: 1 rectangle, 1 circle
• File → Export PDF

→ generates an empty document (or maybe both the lines and the background is white)

Note: After the export ones stays in print preview mode, which is a bit confusing if the command was invoked from the “normal” drawing mode.

If I create a closed polygon that include arcs or parts of circles, they export to SVG as straight lines.

If I explode the polyline, they export fine.

If I create a solid fill, those arcs export fine.

See attached DXF and SVG output.

This may be a duplicate bug, but my previous bug report vanished.

Some tool bars (e.g. ‘Block’ tool bar) contain tools without an icon (empty button).
Not all tools are available in tool bars.

Configure font used for dimensions.

When exporting a drawing to SVG, polygons containing arcs (trimmed circles in this case) are converted to straight lines. If the polygon is exploded first, then it exports correctly. Of course, this isn’t useful if closed polygons are required for the program using the SVG file. Solid hatch fills export correctly. See attached DXF and corresponding SVG export.

Add layer: new layer should be active one

1. When selecting the Scissors function, it deactivates after the cut is done. One can therefore not continuously select lines and cut it at the selected point. Each time the function has to be activated from the start.

1. For some reason on the Window machine, the snap toolbar buttons are doubled for all functions. I therefore have two buttons for each type of snap and cannot access the bottom snaps unless I undoc the toolbar.

For some reason, this is still fine in the Linux Beta 3. Single buttons like always.

Reported by: koosjr

when editing text which contains the degree symbol the proper escape sequence is \U+00B0
Qcad 3Beta3 replaces \U+00B0 with %%[dD]

PDF Export: from file menu

Preference for persistent selections

Text tool: options tool bar with text, angle, text height.

Print preview: auto center / scale

Layer renaming: changing name from lower case to upper case

SvgExporter.js uses PrintPreview to parse the scale string, and therefore depends on the qt GUI part. That should not make maintenance harder to call RMath directly there? Results seem to match from a first look.
