[solved] Dimension formats not saved

[BadRocket]

Hello all, running QCAD/CAM Professional 3.27.6.0 on Linux Fedora 36. I love QCAD and use it daily, and it's been a solid app for me.

It seems that "Linear Format" selections are not retained for dimensions when changed in Property Editor. When a file is reopened, the dimension will always revert back to the default format set in "Drawing Preferences". In other words, linear formats in Property Editor are not persistent.

Steps to reproduce:

1. create new drawing
2. draw a circle / line / anything
3. add Dimension
4. go to Property Editor > change Linear format from "Decimal" (or whatever is default) to "Engineering"
5. save drawing
6. close drawing
7. reopen drawing

Result: All Linear formats reverted back to original drawing preferences
Expected behavior: The Linear formats would retain what was changed & saved in Property Editor

Of course, all the other items in property editor are saved correctly, so I would have expected Linear Format to be saved also. Before posting, I searched the forum and found this and this where Husky helped on related topics. I also checked the Bugtracker and didn't see a report. Thanks in advance.
