[solve] Dimension Unit Settings

Post by JWR » Tue May 23, 2023 1:19 am

Qcad: 3.28.1.0
OS: Apple Ventura 13.3.1

While exploring different aspects of this program with regards to architectural drawing, I find that dimensional units are in feet and decimal inches (see the attachement). Can this be set up as feet and fractional inches?

Yes. Below Drawing Preferences for the actual drawing or for all new drawings below Application Preferences ...
