Hi CVH,
Thank yo for your prompt reply. Option (I work on Mac) helps indeed. That's what I wanted to know. Great, thanks.

Hi, I have a question about selecting objects. How can I choose one of the items that are stacked on top of each other? For instance, I have a block, and I want to hatch it. I draw a rectangle around it, intending to select that rectangle to apply the hatch. However, Qcad continues to select the blo...

Hi Guys, I just googled "qcad" and I got the site referring to the launch of a new digital currency in Canada. Quite funny- to see your name used for something totally different. Don't you bother? Can it affect QCAD (drawing software) in the future? Just a question, it's not my business but personal...

Thanks for your reply. I think I can upgrade also.

Hi guys,
Iam wondering. Are there any issues after the upgrade to MacOs Ventura? Is Qcad still working smoothly, or are there any problems? Can you let me know before I upgrade? Thank you.

As someone who uses this a lot, I would like to see the x-ref support. Also, one of my clients requires use of x-refs.

Hi Guys,
Sorry for the delay and many thanks for your replies. I thought it was something with the large block. Really good te see this forum works so well. I'll save this post and will use it next time with large drawings.
Regards Radek

Hi Andrew, When I explode the block, the drawing gets 149MB big. Funny thing is. I used to work with Qcad with MUCH bigger drawings (big data center approx 2 years ago) and it worked well. So I was just wondering if there is anything wrong with the newest version. I also use Bricscad BIM but that on...

Hi, I have a question. My cad runs VERY slow. It takes ages to select the viewport (VT) for example. I work on: MacBook Pro16,1, 6-Core Intel Core i7 2,6 GHz, 6 core, 32 GB 2667 MHz DDR4. I edited the drawing (and saved it as v3). This one is 3,1 MB so not shocking. But still, it doesn't work smooth...

Great! Thank you very much. This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for. My question is fully answered.

Hi, I have a question. How can I change properties of all layers in 1x? When I select all layers and click I can change only one (the one I click on). Is there any way how to do it? I just needed to change all colours in existing drawing into black. It's not easy when you have drawing with 80 layers...

I see, I was nog not clear enough. What I mean is that you see directly which pattern you can select. Without selecting a pattern. So without selection. You can compare it with Word where the font types appear directly next to the name of the font. So you can directly seen how a font looks like. Or ...

Thank, it helps. But talking about hatches. There is one more thing. I think you can help me. Is it possible to see the hatch-patterns during the selection of the hatch-pattern? I am not such a CAD-guru who knows how ANS31/ HEX/ AR-HBONE does look like. It would be helpful to have a little window sh...

Hi After some of using QCAD there are 2 point I am not really happy with. That's why I want to ask what do I have to do different to make this work. 1. Rectangles- after drawing a rectangle is doesn't stay a rectangle but 4 exploded lines. Is there any way to keep rectangle as 1 'block'? I know I ca...

Can you try setting it to "White" instead? It will still be displayed as white in model space and black when printing. yes- white helps! Thank you The color "Black" seems to be skipped by the OpenDesign libraries on saving. It's then reversed to the default color (a dark blue) on the next loading. ...
