2421 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Make the preview of Shorten (LE) more visible | Assigned | |
1 |
Task Description
Andrew,
When we use Lengthen/Shorten (LE) with a positive amount the result is clearly visible when indicating a side of an entity. With a negative amount there is seemingly no preview. It is generated and shown but one can not distinguish it especially with solid lines.
Adding an orthogonal auxiliary preview shape some N pixels long would do the trick.

2418 | QCAD/CAM | Feature Request | Low | Include a GroupCustom widget in CAM Toolpath dialogs. | Assigned | |

Task Description
Andrew,
Unrelated to OS or QCAD version.
In the postprocessor configuration dialog there is a group box called ‘GroupCustom’. One can add custom widgets to that, rename it and so on.
Such is not provided in CamProfileToolpathDialog.ui or CamDrillToolpathDialog.ui
It should be possible but we aren’t really able to mix up things with the ‘Message’ QLabel ... A reserved QGroupBox would do the trick.

Andrew,
When switching from Default to Dark mode the text on alternating rows is hardly visible. We can customize this color.
It would be easier if a proper default color is set on switching to and back.

2415 | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | Very Low | Issues with OffsetBothSides | Assigned | |
1 |
Task Description
Andrew,
I can’t find any documentation concerning OffsetBothSides under Misc .. Modify. It is not listed in the QCAD features nor in the changelog.
There was a Feature Request FS#1130 for this, I think you might want to close that as being implemented.
The tool asks for a Line, Arc, Circle, Ellipse, Spline or Polyline. It also seems to act on shapes that can be exploded to such entities like Text, Dimension and Hatch entities.
There may be many ‘Result loop not closed’ or ‘No offsets possible’ warnings when hovering over entities on a drawing. The preview may be partially, one or two sided and even two sided partially and closed with semi-circles.
I only successfully created a dual offset for open Splines, open or logically open Polylines. All other attempts result in a single offset at the indicated side.
There are the usual exceptions for Polylines with arc-segments but that is related to small arc segments and being tangentially connected. Only tested it on a Win7 platform. I don’t suspect that version 3.27.8 includes a fix for that ...

2405 | QCAD Community Edition | Bug Report | Low | Dimension scaling not working | Assigned | |
|
Task Description
I’m using QCAD Community Edition 3.27.7 on Windows 11.
When I started my drawing, I was able to change the size scale factor of (existing) dimensions using “Edit/Drawing Preferences/Dimension/Dimension Settings/Size scale factor”. However, suddenly this feature stopped working and now I cannot switch the dimension scale factor any longer.
I used this feature to be able to adapt the scale factor of the dimensions when printing in different scales. I.e. all my drawings are in “original” size but when it comes to printing, I print some parts in scale 1:2 (in which case I used to set the size scale factor of the dimensions to 2) and some parts in scale 1:10 (in which case I used to set the scale factor of the dimensions to 10). Using this procedure, the dimensions have the same size (font size, arrow size, gaps etc.) on both drawings.
I have attached the drawing, that shows the described issues.

2391 | QCAD Community Edition | Bug Report | Low | Fix Dark Theme for Linux | Assigned | |
|
Task Description
The dark theme for Linux is broken:
- Some icons have dark background (expected) and black foreground color (that should be replaced by white of very light gray) - Some icons have light background (not cohesive with the theme). - The command history shows dark blue font on dark gray background. - The grid’s ruler shows black font over dark background for the numbers. - The icons folder is missing in the GitHub repository, but other themes have that folder. - The general icons (open, save, and so on) are not dark theme friendly. A better approach for maybe all the themes would be to use something like the breeze icons pack for LibreOffice, and it will have the added benefit of making the app look more modern.
The icons issue is the biggest problem. They should probably replace the black color for white or very light gray. Even the red accent color is not ideal for dark themes, is not the main issue.
Attached is an image that show the problems and another that shows LibreOffice with the Dark Breeze theme for reference.

Task Description
As the layout block contains the drawing sheet, the number, the viewports, it’s the presentable part of the drawing.
Maybe QCAD could be able to save on the dxf the “last state” of the drawing. If I saved on the Model and closed, it would open on Model... and if my last save was on the Layout”n”, it would open on Layout “n”.
At least on my work area, when opening a finished drawing, it’s the ideal for it to be opened in a Layout (if it was the active block while saving).

When editing an existing toolpath to update the parameters of the selected tool, we can update the Feed Rate and the Plunge Rate, but I couldn’t find any way to update the Spindle Speed.
Even when using the Edit Tool KE button, we can edit parameters of the tool on concern but none of the modification is applied to the current Toolpath because as I see, tools parameters are copied fron tools definitions to a Toolpath only at creation of this Toolpath, but Toolpath are not updated accordingly.
Could you please add an edit field for Spindle Speed in the CAM Profile Toolpath window?

Task Description
Andrew,
Not OS or Version depending.
We can’t filter on some specific properties of polylines.
Handy would be: - Global Width - Orientation
Specific: - Polyline Pattern But I don’t really search for them ... For some post-op I just need them all to be set to ‘No’. - # of vertices Filtering the complex from the more simple ones. - Including Bulges or not To seperate polylines with arc segments form others. There some operations that don’t really work with bulging. - Z values and/or global Z This would make sense for some but filtering on Z is not common under QCAD as it is 2D.

2354 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | copy-paste between two QCAD instances | Assigned | |
2 |
Task Description
Hello,
I’ve quite often the task to transfer changes from one set of drawings to another (similar) set. My ideal setup would be to open one set in one window and the other set in another window. Both windows would be arranged side-by-side (larger monitor). Changes would be copy-pasted from one set to the other.
From #2352 I’ve learned that there is a command-line option to achieve this.
Unfortunately it’s not possible to copy-paste between these instances.
And yes, it’s important to do this in two windows to see both versions at the same time. So, tabs are not the answer.
It’s also ok if i could detach a tab from one instance and arrange it aside of the main window (like the property editor). Than all data transfers would happen inside the same instance.
Best regards, Klaus

It might be useful to have the possibility to manage the references of the images contained within the drawing. A design could use recurring images, stored in a folder outside the one in which the design is located. Moving the drawing or folders (or changing the PC) will lose the folder references and the images are not displayed when the drawing is opened again. I imagine the possibility to view the references of the images (and if necessary modify manually or with a pointer) with the option of: attach, detach, reload, etc., as in the example below (referred to ActCad - based on Intellicad technology)

Task Description
QCAD (before version 3.27?) used to show some custom XDATA, e.g. tag 1000, even for application names that are not “QCAD”, which for me was useful, so it’s somewhat of a regression. (I think it was broken when selecting multiple items, maybe that’s why it was removed.)
I suggest to bring that feature back, but maybe show it only when a single element is selected if that’s easier.
(As a workaround/hack I guess it would be possible to rewrite the required information as QCAD compatible XDATA externally I guess.)

2307 | QCAD/CAM | Feature Request | Low | Tools to create dogbones or corner overcut | Assigned | |

Task Description
The inside corners of profile tool paths have rounded inside corners. This occurs because the rounded outside the bit cannot make it all the way into the corner of the feature. Think of tracing the inside wall of a cardboard box with a can of soup. The can makes direct contact with the box walls, but its round shape is unable to completely fit into the tight corners— there’s always a gap.
In a dog-bone overcut (see the figure in attachment), the inside profile corner is enlarged into a semicircle, allowing the sharp edges of the mating piece to slide through without interference.
When a dog bone is applied to the inside corners, as shown in the second figure in the attachment, the joints fit together nicely!
The following website explains what should be implemented More elegant CNC dogbones
There are two ways to implement this tool. Either you modify the original design (as implemented in Fusion 360) or you can do it at the moment you define the tool path (Estlcam allows you to do this for example). See the feature Corner overcut, on Estlcam website

Task Description
Hi,
I believe prior QCAD version 3.22.0.0 there was no rotating preview. The rotating preview shows the outcome regarding to the chosen center point. I know that it is also common for move/copy. However, for me it is very confusing and difficult to chose the correct center point for a rotation if I’m constantly been distracted by the most of the time overlapping preview of my selection. This said if the drawing is very detailed I have to zoom in extremely to be able to snap to the right entity. That wouldn’t be necessary without the preview. Additional rotate a large drawing selections will compromise the performance - CPU is going like crazy.
It would be nice to have an option to turn this preview on/off.

However, there seem to be cases where after 10-20 entries, the focus goes off the length field in the options toolbar, requiring the user to bring focus back to continue. I could not seem to duplicate this behavior with the horizontal line tool.

2287 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Very Low | Evaluate draw order for preference "Prevent white-on-wh... | Assigned | |
|
Task Description
The Application Preference setting “Graphics View - Appearance - Prevent white-on-white/black-on-black display” seems to be a global setting that doesn’t take the draw order into account. For example: With the setting enabled, it prevents creating a white hatch of a higher draw order on top of a larger, colored hatch with lower draw order (background). The preference does not seem to evaluate if the object is truly drawn as “white-on-white”.
With the preference enabled, setting the object color as “white” will set the “white” color label, but the object color actually stays black. Its hard to determine why it happens in that case.
Is it possible to let the global preference setting be applied to objects after evaluation of the draw order, and determine if the object actually is a true case of white-on-white?
My workaround: Disable the preference setting (I think it is default = on), and only enable it for ad-hoc checks of hidden and overlooked objects.

Task Description
I have set the grid/snap value to X=.0625 Y=.0625 on all 4 viewports. When zooming in and out the grid/snap scale changes from .0625 to 3.90625. at this point the grid/snap points differ, This causes a variation in the grid/snap reference points lending to drawing errors.
example When I use the grid settings defaults .01, when zooming in and out, the grid/snap scaling doesn’t seem to have this issue. Other values do, See below.
set value first zoom second zoom next zoom
point point point ...
0.01 0.1 1.0 10.0 ... 0.02 0.04 0.4 4.0 ... 0.04 0.16 1.6 16.0 ... 0.05 0.25 2.5 25.0 ... 0.0625 0.390625 3.90625 39.0625 ... 0.0254 0.64516 6.4516 64.516 ...
Why is there a squaring of the original set value? Which then becomes a new zoomed grid/snap value?
