Pasted objects have a 5 degree angle

Post by Doug_W » Thu Mar 13, 2025 4:58 pm

Greetings,

I have QCAD
Version:
3.31.2.0 (3.31.2)
Windows 10

When I copy Ctrl-C and then paste Ctrl-V, the entities have a 5 degree angle. Searching the Internet to correct what I must have inadvertently set up, the Google Gods say click "View" menu and select "Focus on Options Toolbar" . I am not seeing a new toolbar or a way to fix that problem. What is it I am looking for?

Any help appreciated,
Doug

Most QCAD tools share the Option Toolbar to list their options.
Dynamically updated and automatically displayed when required.

Probably your Rotation option is set to 5 degrees.

OK,

Your explanation was a lot better than the stuff I found searching the Internet. It is fixed now.

Thanks for your help.
