Task Description
Andrew,
Please refer to related forum topic: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=74&t=10724#p44206
An eighth circle with radius 8 Lead In/Out relates to nothing in the actual exported cutter trajectory. Nor does it with the edge being cut.
Proper examples and a comparison with ‘Extension’ type Lead In/Out included. Conclusion: IMHO connecting the cutter trajectory and edge being cut is wrong.
It looks a lot like turning on Cutter Compensation (G41/42) while the motion is circular. But that is uncommon because most controllers can not cope with this motion. One can increase the offset gradually along a straight pre-entry segment for turning on G41/42 but not along a circular path. Also see snippet: - Pre-entry C→B turning on G41 - Circular Lead In B→A

Task Description
Andrew,
Related topic: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=10649
Already two different users report that Landscape is printed cropped in portrait format, both Win11. The behavior change occurred recently. Although the second user (rdtsc) reports the same behavior for latest Mabox Linux (Manjaro, Arch.)
Can not replicate that on Win7 32 bit nor on Win10 64 bit, both are no longer or not updated OS. For one, I have no orientation setting displayed in my printer dialog.
It seems not to be related to the QCAD version: Reported for: - Win11 QCAD Pro 3.29 - Win11 QCAD-CAM 3.27.8.0

Task Description
Andrew,
At present QCAD/CAM the tool drop-down box displays tool number and diameter between brackets.
It would be more appropriate to display if it is a mill or a drill and/or the description of such. In a further stage of development ball-nose ... Conical ... And so on.
I have several specialized mills with the same diameter. End-mills, roughing mills, routing mills, face mills ....
Tools 1(ø6mm) or 2(ø6mm) don’t say much if tool 1 is a side-mill and tool 2 is a high speed drill for metal.

Task Description
Andrew,
When we alter about any property of a Hatch entity it seems to be recreated with a newer/higher handle. This doesn’t influence the drawing order in direct. But already changing the drawing order of a Hatch it is recreated as a new entity.
It starts to matters in drawing order when there are multiple entities with the same drawing order and that after save/reload. Entities with the same drawing order then receive a new drawing order based on the original but sequentially increasing based on handle.
Because a Hatch is recreated with a newer/higher handle each time a property changes it will thus always end up above the others with the same order even when the original was created earlier.
This is more pronounced when copying/pasting entities from a source to a target drawing. The original Hatch drawing order is retained but it will always be above existent entities with the same drawing order in the target drawing after save/reload.
Most other entities are probably just updated in situ. It is unsure to me at this point if merely updating a Hatch is even possible. And perhaps this is related to the addObject ForceNew flag what is false by default.

Referring to this forum post: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=74&t=10152
With radii 1341.35667735 and 26 the relative tolerance is 0.00683678 and exceeds the former used fixed tolerance of 1e-4.
These arcs will then be considered to be tangent and the intersection point is 0.31024 units to the left of where we expect it.
Implemented: https://github.com/qcad/qcad/commit/77ae3e4518cc34f178779d2d2c724adcf80c229d#diff-dcc4e31eaeaed5a047f65dbce4ddda4bcd4d604e9e1005ee8481ded273768449

I had already expressed my reserves on the relative tolerance but that was already a better solution for small arcs: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=8775&p=34907#p34907
We could limit the tolerance by: A- The smallest of the fixed and the relative. B- A relative tolerance based on R2 there circle 1 is forced to be the larger one.
This will never account for the position in the plane. At a certain point the tolerance will be less than the accuracy/certainty of the values.

Usually I point to something to start with. Sometimes I want to point away from here but then the arrow is where I just clicked.

A Leader entity is stored similar as a polyline. I think it would not be difficult to reverse the basic polyline and update the dimension shape accordingly.

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.

Not related to OS, nor version.
The method Polyline from Segments (OC) can be configured for tolerance and simplification in the Options Toolbar. The method Polyline from Selection (OG) has no UI or none showing.
OG retrieves a tolerance from QCAD.ini, what is initially not set:
var tolerance = RSettings.getDoubleValue("PolylineFromSelection/Tolerance", 0.001);
The tolerance will be default = 0.001 similar as the default in AppPrefs. The tolerance setting is included in QCAD.ini after changing the AppPrefs entry.
OG calls PolylineFromSelection.autoJoinSegments with this tolerance:
var counter = PolylineFromSelection.autoJoinSegments(di, tolerance, this);
PolylineFromSelection.autoJoinSegments calls PolylineFromSegments.createPolylineShape with simplification hard coded to true. (last parameter)
// create polyline from line, arc, spline or open polyline entity:
var polyline = PolylineFromSegments.createPolylineShape(
entity, doc, vTolerance, op, undefined,

This is a trim method I am missing in Qcad.
20 years ago it existed in CadKey. You had a bunch of lines or segments. You defined a (new) line or segment as cutter. ‘Trim All’. You pointed at the side of the cutter entity to trim all intersecting at that side.
Pritty the same as in this topic: https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?t=5221

Task Description
Andrew,
I know that GCodeMM.js and GCodeIN.js are generic postprocessors. Mostly used as base for other or custom postprocessor.
The distinct nature is pretty clear from the filename and the suffix in the display name. Another distinct nature is that they include this.unit = RS.Millimeter / RS.Inch intended for the CAM side.
Why don’t they include at least a G20/21 in a generic header?
There are several more specific postprocessors where I miss these G-codes for the measurement system.
True, if they are not supported, no error messages would occur when omitted. The danger is that users rely on build in postprocessors hoping that it matches with the default measurement system of their setup.
IMHO it is safer to trigger an instruction fault before attempting to execute a wrong motion. As fail-save as possible should always be the goal.

Andrew,
The _DatumFilled Block used by Datum entities (DT) is considered as not used and is purged by Purge Unused Blocks (BP). There is no block association for these special types of arrowheads in QCAD.
After purging the Datums are not immediately updated but the special arrowheads will eventually disappear. Adding new Datums will not fix that.
Not problematic because the _DatumFilled Block is re-created on save/reload when Datum entities exists. Datums are updated.
Probably not OS or version related. Related forum topic: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=10694

2538 | QCAD Bugtracker | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | Very Low | Weight 2.11 French translation typo | Assigned | 1 | CVH |
Task Description
Andrew,
When switched to French I detected a typo in the drop down box for Lineweight.
Weight 2.11mm is listed as 1.58mm {2.11m?} https://github.com/qcad/qcad/blob/master/ts/qcadcore_fr.ts#L1228-L1229 Also see attached image file.
May I ask why only ISO types have a comma instead of a point in French. The use of a comma is uncommon in the Property Editor even when that is the native decimal separator. I also detect an extra space between the value and ‘mm’ and that only for the ISO types.
This only occurs in: https://github.com/qcad/qcad/blob/master/ts/qcadcore_fr.ts https://github.com/qcad/qcad/blob/master/ts/qcadcore_pl.ts https://github.com/qcad/qcad/blob/master/ts/qcadcore_pt.ts
Probably not OS or QCAD version related.

Task Description
Andrew, On behalf of user Kmeelo
Polygonal Area adds measurements text with 12 decimal digits and then as short as possible.
Current formatting path see: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=10450&p=42833#p42805
Related forum feature request: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=10458
I also see a misconception of the term ‘precision’. Numbers precision is the amount of significant digits disregarding the position of the decimal point. 12 decimal digits is about the largest precision for numbers with 5 integer digits.

Task Description
Andrew,
It took me a while to find the source of a certain freak bug I encountered. I used the RLine.isParallel(RLine) as a test for knowing if line segments were parallel or not.
Included below is script code that mimics the functionally of isParallel().
As far as I know isParallel() is nowhere used in the QCAD open source. Textual only found in RLine.cpp & .h or under: opennurbs, ecmaapi\generated and ecmagenerator\src.
// Example:
// RShape1: RLine(RShape(address: "0xcd70e28"), startPoint: "RVector(969.219858, -171.914894, 0.000000, 1)", endPoint: "RVector(1010.000000, -140.000000, 0.000000, 1)")
// RShape2: RLine(RShape(address: "0x7659770"), startPoint: "RVector(969.219858, -171.914894, 0.000000, 1)", endPoint: "RVector(930.000000, -340.000000, 0.000000, 1)")
----
var aShape1Angle = shape1.getAngle(); // =0.6640461628266838 rad
var aShape2Angle = shape2.getAngle(); // =4.483157047107694 rad
----
// RLine::isParallel(RLine) -> aTest1 || aTest2
var aTest1 = RMath.isSameDirection(aShape1Angle, aShape2Angle); // =false
var aTest2 = RMath.isSameDirection(aShape1Angle, aShape2Angle + Math.PI); // =true
var aTestOr = aTest1 || aTest2; // =>TRUE !?
----
// # BUG # RShape1 is considered as parallel with RShape2
----
// RMath::isSameDirection(dir1, dir2, tol) ... tol = RS.AngleTolerance = 1e-9
// for aTest1 -> ax1Test1 || ax1Test2
var ax1Dif = Math.abs(aShape1Angle - aShape2Angle); // =3.8191108842810104 rad
var ax1Test1 = ax1Dif < 1e-9; // =false
var ax1Test2 = ax1Dif > 2*Math.PI - 1e-9; // =false
var ax1TestOr = ax1Test1 || ax1Test2; // =>FALSE
----
// for aTest2 -> ax2Test1 || ax2Test2
var ax2Dif = Math.abs(aShape1Angle - (aShape2Angle + Math.PI)); // =6.9607035378708035 rad

2440 | QCAD Bugtracker | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | Very Low | Hatch from Segments > False positives open loop warning... | Assigned | 1 | CVH |
Task Description
Andrew,
Most probably not related to OS or QCAD version.
When hatching an area with Hatch from Segments (HS) there might be false positive warnings on open loops. It seems that this is related to the orientation of the indicated segments and the order of selection. The real problematic position is not always the first that is reported. Loop count is increased even if it is a single loop.
Included a basic test drawing to replicate these. Further details to replicate the issue are in the file.

2415 | QCAD Bugtracker | QCAD (main) | Bug Report | Very Low | Issues with OffsetBothSides | Assigned | 1 | CVH |
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 ...

Andrew,
In the attached dxf: Besides that it is clear that duplicate vectors are not filtered ... Where a segment is crossing in another node a non valid node is returned as self-intersection point. Seems to be unrelated to CW/CCW or tolerance.
Where 2 nodes coexists 4 duplicate vectors are returned.

Most likely not related to the QCAD version, rather an old sore.
File included Topic: https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=7889#p30803 Confirmed by ‘cccplex’ Linux ‘Latest Ubuntu’
Polyline arcs with Width = 2R render as circle segments rather than circle sectors. As Non-reversed arcs these don’t explode. As reversed arc these explode to a single arc rather than a circle sector contour.
There is also still the faulty rendering with Z not zero https://qcad.org/bugtracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=1923

Task Description
Win7pro 32bit Qcad 3.23.0
Andrew, The Arc segments of Polylines with Global or any Local Width render faulty where Global Z or any of the arc’s local Z is not zero.
In the attached drawing setting the Global Z of the inner poly to 5,10,...
The setting of Z to not zero affects the radius of the projected arc and not the bulging of the poly. It also affects the projected widths of the line inversely, but not by changing the widths properties.
Pritty rare combination! True. Qcad is 2D native! True.
Flatten will resolve this.
It is not a purely visual rendering fault, the poly will explode as such.
Maybe similar flaw as with uneven scaling blocks with arcs. https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5566#p20703
