The property editor offers for an Angular Dimension the option to make a fixed extension (yes/no) but the input field for a length is missing.

This code was executed in the Script Shell window. Then the program is failing of and closed.

a = addLine(0,0,100,100);
lengthen(a, true, 50); // success
lengthen(a, true, 50); // FAILED!

Both of these files (scripts/simple.js and scripts/library.js) contain a function named sleep() that duplicate each other. There is probably a need to delete one of them.

• simple.js
• library.js

Take any random drawing (as far as I can tell), select (at least) one object, then export to PDF. The “highlight attribute” (for lack of a better word) of the object will unexpectedly be exported.

wrong objects are selected while selecting region with mouse.
Actions:Trying to select small rectangle area using mouse while holding left mouse button. (ScreenShot_1.png)
Expected result: only objects inside selection rectangle (text, lines, rectangles) are selected.
Factual result: objects inside selection rectangle are selected as well as other objects which are farther away (marked with purple arrows in ScreenShot_2.png)

When I run bbox with the attached file I get inconsistent results if I run it 6 or 10 times.

Sometimes the size is 448979.2349223149/310815.2964427199 (it thinks that there is an object at 0,0)
sometimes it is 338.0789223148604/302.31644271989353 (this is what I think is correct)

Windows / Linux

Upgraded from 3.24.3 to 3.25.2 on lubuntu 18.04
QCAD/CAM hangs during startup, but managed to get it running by renaming libqcadgles3d.so to libqcadgles3d.so.orig.
Don’t understand why 3.24.3 still works ok without having to do this.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks.

Case:
launch LI,
launch for the first point SH, set to 5 distance,
snap to a point,
activate Auto snap, (which would work with SD for EH and EV but not for Alt)
try to restrict orientation for second point with ALT, EH, EV - it won’t work in this scenario ...

Edit: Playing around ... could it be that RZ is not propperly set within those tools?

A solid fill hatch works as expected in the attached file and prints OK, but after saving the file and reopening, the hatch has disappeared.

QCADpro 3.25.2.1 / win7pro 32 bit / 4GB / 1e generation i7 2.6Ghz / HDD GeForce GT 520

The method PE casts the clipboard on individual hatch segments.
Hatches should be considered as a single complex entity not allowing certain actions.

This is either a bug or a feature request, depending on perspective; my apologies if I’ve picked the wrong one. Additional discussion can be found here.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an entity
2. Run “Create Library Item” [BT]
3. Select Reference Point

Expected outcome:
“Save As” dialogue opens in the directory that the previous library item was saved in

Actual outcome:
“Save As” dialogue opens in ( RSettings.getLaunchPath() + “/libraries” )

Additional Context:
The reason I’ve categorized this as a bug is because, relative to the behaviour of the main “Save As” dialogue (which does remember the last directory used) the behaviour of the “Create Library Item” “Save As” dialogue is unexpected.

Software versions:
QCAD 3.25.2 Pro
Windows 10 Pro

XLine entities are not split up correctly into rays and a line at the rectangular edge.

To reproduce:

1. Draw a rectangle.
2. DH, draw a dimension (the base dimension).
3. Move that dimension’s text to a new position.
4. DC, continue that dimension.

The text of the continued dimension will show up on top of that of the base dimension. Expected behaviour would be that it would show up on top of the continued dimension (standard placement).

Please see attached pic.

Case: Tested with the example drawing provided below:
https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=7776

If I select every single entity piece by piece with the mouse pointer the total length is correct.
If I select everything in once with a rectangular or a polyline selection the total length is incorrect.

Under Linux the quantity is not correctly interpreted.

Create block with attribute definition (attribute definition has lowest draw order in block).

Create block reference from block.

Modify > Stretch with area around block reference.

Block reference does not move.

Andrew,
unrelated to any OS or version.

Circles do explode to polylines with two arc segments.
Discussed earlier and very correct because a full circle bulge would be a mathematical limit situation.

When there is no option to ‘Undo’ anymore or when the file was saved & loaded there is no easy way back.

One of the reasons why I isolate circle entities if I might going to use XP as in the file here:
https://qcad.org/bugtracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=2155
Even knowing it, I still make more mistakes as I would like.

It would be nice to be able to exclude circle entities from the GUI explosion action XP.
Can be simply implemented in the top of Explode.explodeSelection with an extra preference in AppPrefs, default =true.

On the other hand, the explosions of circles used internally in various methods should remain.

CVH

-origin has no effect, origin is not drawn in export

Path data might contain leading zeroes to indicate an implicit separator:

“1 02” should be equivalent with “1 0 2”, not “1 2”.

Rectangle with Size (RS) doesn’t update the Fill, RoundCorners & Radius settings shared under the [Shape] header in QCAD ini.

Explained as group synchronization while the Polygon methods have more settings in common, although not shared.

In the summary there are more minor issues listed.
All have a bar in the Options Toolbar that disappears after the first is drawn.

I rather would opt for all individual settings ...
... or all grouped.

Englisch:
A text that ends with a line break is displayed incorrectly.

I think the \P should be passed to the program to create the line break. Unfortunately it is taken over directly into the text.

See attachment

Deutsch:
Textbox erzeugt falschen Umbruch

Ein Text der mit einen Zeilenumbruch endet, wird falsch dargestellt.

Ich denke mal das \P sollte an das Programm weitergegeben werden um den Zeilenumbruch zu erzeugen. Leider wird es direkt in den Text mit übernommen.

The alpha property is a new feature. Now that we are using it it can be added to tools like the “Property Painter”.

Add alpha property to filter for hatches.

In the Application Preferences>Draw>Text dialog, when first opened, the Uncheck all and Check all buttons are not disabled if the Show font preview in font controls check box is checked. If you click on the Use reduced selection of fonts check box twice the buttons become disabled.

Include file was open when using ‘Edit Block In-place (BB)’ in an other drawing.
Happend on 5/1/2021 just before 2:56 am
https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?&t=7945#p31055

‘Edit Block In-place (BB)’ is never used in this drawing.
There was never a Block in this file.
I might have switched focus.

Re-installed QCAD a dozen times meanwhile.
Wiped all what remained of QCAD twice.
Cleaned up the windows registry twice.
Lastly left out all kinds of my custom scripts.
Simply a bare install with the msi file.

How to replicate:
- Start QCAD in normal mode
- Load included file
- Set App.Prefs .. Startup .. Restore open files
- Close QCAD
- Start QCAD in debugger mode
(-rescan -enable-script-debugger -always-load-scripts)

Boot fails.
Every successive trial.

When booting in normal mode I see the BB options toolbar blink shortly.

3 Screengrabs in DebuggerModeError.zip in the same topic.
The blink I can’t catch.

I can Boot with no file to retore on open in debugger mode and load the file.
I have several of those files, all were open that day at 2:56 am
