QCAD3.ini swappable between Win and Mac?

Do you have a question you want to ask an existing QCAD user about QCAD and what you can do with it? Do you want to know if a particular feature exists? This is the place to ask.

QCAD3.ini swappable between Win and Mac?

Post by Husky » Thu Jul 12, 2018 6:00 am

Hi,

a friend of mine likes to test QCAD for his shop. He has a Mac - I'm on Win 10/64. I'll help him with the first QCAD steps and I'm wondering if I could use mine Win10 qcad3.ini on his Mac system. Would that work ... trouble free? :shock:

Probably worth a try. Recent files obviously won't make any sense on his Mac though.
On Mac, the file has to be put into ~/.config/QCAD:

- Launch Finder
- Go > Go to Folder...
- Enter "~/.config/QCAD"
- Go
