Was happy but very unhappy now.

Please elaborate why. Thanks.

HA or HS depends on the situation. HA = FIRST built a closed selection, then launch the tool. HS = Launch the tool first, then built a closed selection with the mouse pointer piece by piece, when you are done click the right mouse button or hit ESC. If the hatch is to big or to smal - play with he s...

Your paper is A4 portrait. Select 'Landscape' Select 'Auto fit drawing to page(s)' You get scale 0.000454 With a scale of 0.0007 the drawing would fit on one page. The scales mentioned on the drawing won't confirm. Logically the paper_space for this drawing is originally chosen to fit on an A3 land...

Hi Alan, looks like we got it sorted LOL So, I checked your drawing - I can't reproduce a delay of up to a minute but the drawing is noticeable slowed down. My hardware is a i5 with 16 GB RAM what means it is slower than your hardware. Could it be that an anti virus software is checking "life" your ...

Hi Holger, to be honest - I've not much good news for you ... It has 30 MiB. QCAD is not really built for very large drawings. 30MB will bring it to the limits. QCad opens the drawing (after 5min), but than it freezes. With much patience I can do some view-operations on the drawing. You can try: Aft...

Thanks for your reply but I was referring to the Qcad Pro.

QCAD Pro is 2D too ....

I don't seem to be able to load the 2D free version. Trial/CE download links: https://www.qcad.org/de/qcad-downloads-trial My question is with Pro can you draw 3D versions of your design. Does the system have the pull capability like sketchup? No, QCAD is a 2D CAD program https://www.qcad.org/en/

I do wish this country had switched to the metric system when there was some interest about 40 years ago.

That makes two of us ...

A Select All will show the corner to grab to move it, but will not show the text.

For some reason the text info is missing. If I type it in everything looks good to me ...

... I'd be happy to send the file if you can tell me how to publish it in a way other than an attachment (I'd prefer not to have it public)

I'm not sure about the current file size limits but you are welcome to use my PM.

My big problem now is that it takes an inordinately long period of time to redraw or switch to different paperspace views; the view switching is much more of an issue as it almost feels like I am going to crash the program. I tested with a 3MB dxf. I can't reproduce an "inordinately long period of ...

Sorry, no problem with that file on my machine ....
