Re: Request - Shape/Polygon created with Center+incircle rad
Hi Andrew, OK, I took the decision to have ShapePolygonAFCP.js alter the centre point automatically without asking the user. So the polygon flat side and corner point now pass through the mouse pointer position, for polygons with an odd number of sides. I have attached the new version. If a user wis...

Re: Request - Shape/Polygon created with Center+incircle rad
Hi Husky, Works for me! I guess I would prefer more the "Restrict Angle or length" option but that works on a similar way. You can actually use the 'Restrict Angle or Length' option here. The shortcut is EL. This works the same way as it does in line. You can in fact use this restriction any time a ...

Re: Request - Shape/Polygon created with Center+incircle rad
Hi Husky 2. If you don't have a straight x or y orientation - how will you define a A/F diameter of e.g. 13 on a rotated hexagon like this one? Use relative polar coordinates. So for your example, using pg4, select the first point and enter in the command line:- @13<45 This will draw a polygon rotat...

Re: Request - Shape/Polygon created with Center+incircle rad
Hi, Or maybe I didn't get the point of having the cursor offset from the corner? What do you think? The reason for this is to meet Husky's original request, where, for polygons with an odd number of sides, the user could enter the distance from the centre of a flat side to the opposite corner. In th...

Re: Request - Shape/Polygon created with Center+incircle rad
Hi Husky, Finding myself with some time on my hands, I decided to give this a try. I like to ask for additional options: "Incircle radius + center between two corners" (Symbol 3) and/or "Incircle Diameter (A/F) + center between two corners". (Symbol 4) I have added two options to the shape toolbar. ...

Re: printing points
Hi Frank60 I thought I should point out a couple of points. Firstly, this feature was not added by Andrew. I wrote the changes and sent them to Andrew with the idea of adding them to QCAD. Andrew obviously thought this was a good idea. Secondly, printing the points as they appear on screen is not su...

Re: Draw Polyline - Extra options to create arcs
Hi Why is it called: "Second Pt"? Thanks Clive for your clear explanation. "End Pt, Radius" same here! Is that an End point? No, it's an extension from the start of the arc across the center - but that's not a point on or even the end of the arc ... :( As Regards the 'End Point, Radius option - I mu...

Draw Polyline - Extra options to create arcs
Hi As you will be aware the polyline command only creates tangential arcs. This means you need to create other types of arcs manually and then convert them to polylines. I have added the ability to create different types of arcs while drawing a polyline. ArcOptions.png As you can see there are 5 opt...

Re: Scripting to produce new drawings
Hi Andrew This does currently not exist in QCAD 3. The reason being that this simply never was requested before. It would be possible to create a script that implements a tool which allows the user to run any script from anywhere on the disk. The way I would probably do this is to eval the chosen sc...

Re: Info->Arc/Circle/Ellipse Area
Hi I notice that the Options for "Add:" are not doing what I ticked - maybe I did something wrong ... In sector mode, the Chord button determines whether a chord entity is added to the drawing. In segment mode it determines whether the two segment lines are added to the drawing. The length button de...

Re: Info->Arc/Circle/Ellipse Area
Hi 1. The tool will forget the last settings - what means it will always start with a checked "Ad measurement to the drawings" but the options are contrary grayed out and UNREACHABLE. :shock: I need first to turn it off/on before I can use the options for "Entity / Cord / Length" properly. 2. It wil...

Re: Info->Arc/Circle/Ellipse Area
Hi I've made a small change to this command. The 'Entity', 'Chord' and 'Length' buttons are now grayed out when the 'Add measurement to drawing' button is unchecked. Checking this button enables them. This involves changes to 2 files, which I have attached. Copy these into the InfoArcCircleArea dire...

Re: Info->Arc/Circle/Ellipse Area
Hi Husky
Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear it works.
Note for others: I have updated the zip file in my first post, so you don't need to download the individual files.
Thanks

Re: Info->Arc/Circle/Ellipse Area
Hi Husky Now I start to feel guilty ..... :oops: No, it's my fault, sorry. I discovered that the icons were pointing to the absolute path on my computer, which is obviously different from yours. I have now replaced them with relative paths so they should now work. The affected file is 'InfoArcCircle...

Re: Info->Arc/Circle/Ellipse Area
Hi Husky
I think I inverted the icons incorrectly. I have now, hopefully, inverted them correctly. So overwrite the existing with the attached ones.
Again, if you could let me know.
Thanks
