When I work at various scales (or "at scale") in qCad,
things work pretty good at the meter level, the foot level, the inch level....
except:

For fonts. Is there a way to edit text in a regular dialog box at regular readable sizes, rather
than at the scale of the drawing?

Hi,

The text preview of inline formatted text is typically unreadable small when the main font height is significantly larger.
In a way your text is displayed perfectly 'in scale' because of its inline formatting. :wink:

You could try with synchronizing the main font height with the inline font height.
First main then inline because changes to the first are adapted for the inline height in absolute.

The next advantage is that no inline text height formatting is required when equal.
Later, it will be directly related to the Text entity text height property.
Otherwise, any inline height overrules the text height property.
