[Solved] How dwg2bmp -r option is used

Post by JJK » Thu Nov 29, 2012 7:38 am

How dwg2bmp -r option is used?

I have tried this:
/home/user/opt/qcad/dwg2bmp -b white -f -r 10 -o /home/www/7194.png /home/www/7194.dxf

I'll just get an error:
dropped global XDATA (no value): "CadsVariable_INSSCALE"
size: 353 x 429
/home/user/opt/qcad/qcad-trial: rivi 36: 12024 Memory area crossing (created a core file) LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$DIR" "$binary" $OPT1 $OPT2 "$@"

The command seems correct and the size is reasonable.

Does QCAD itself work as expected on your system?
Can you try to convert the examples drawings, e.g.:

Code: Select all

cd /home/user/opt/qcad
./dwg2bmp -o test.png ./examples/flange.dxf
If the examples work as expected, the problem is likely related to the drawing file. Please send us the file for testing in this case if possible, thanks.

This gives the same error:
/home/user/opt/qcad/dwg2bmp -o /home/www/test.png /home/www/test.dxf

if I use "-x 300 -y 300" so it works well

Now I tested Windows 7
But I can not find any file conversion. :(

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\QCADTrial>dwg2bmp.bat -f -r 10 examples/flange.dxf
size:  1534 x 1320

C:\Program Files (x86)\QCADTrial>

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\QCADTrial>dwg2bmp.bat -o C:/Users/User/Desktop/flange.bmp examples/flange.dxf

C:\Program Files (x86)\QCADTrial>
I needed very much for such a program. So I would be very grateful if this could get to work. :)

Please note that Windows uses backslashes (\) to separate directories and file names in paths.

You might want to run the application without the batch file to see the output log:

Code: Select all

qcad-trial.exe -no-gui -autostart scripts\Tools\Dwg2Bmp\Dwg2Bmp.js -o C:\Users\User\Desktop\flange.bmp examples\flange.dxf 1>log.txt 2>&1
After that, have a look at the file log.txt for the program output.

Does the QCAD application work on your system?

How about:

Code: Select all

qcad-trial.exe -no-gui -autostart scripts\Tools\Dwg2Bmp\Dwg2Bmp.js -h 1>log.txt 2>&1
This should output usage information.

QCAD works well.

This create empty log.txt file

Code: Select all

qcad-trial.exe -no-gui -autostart scripts\Tools\Dwg2Bmp\Dwg2Bmp.js -h 1>log.txt 2>&1
Edit:

While I waited longer log.txt included such

Code: Select all
