Task Description

Please see the reported issue below:
https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=8994&p=35889#p35889

The library items is designed only with hatches. Inserted within the Library Browser will lead to a wildly displaced reference point position. The then in the drawing available block inserted again from the Block List will show the original correct reference.

On the other hand - Library Items designed with common entities like circle, line etc. behave in both cases normal as expected.

Task Description

Regarding to forum post:
https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=8982&p=35836#p35836

dwg loaded in 3.27.1 frees QCAD (no response) and a Win10 PC. Same drawing loaded in 3.26.0 causes no problems. It looks to me that two hatches (handle 198b6, 198ba) are the culprits.
Drawing saved without those hatches opens without any problem in 3.27.1.

 2280 QCAD (main)Bug ReportLow Dimension arrows not filled Closed
100%
Task Description

Version QCAD 3.26.4.7 / Windows x86_64

Existing drawing:

1. e.g. flange.dxf loads with no fills (solid hatch) for arrows,
2. New dimension are also without arrow fills.
3. This existing drawing has Text above line! Setting Drawing Preferences / Dim to “Horizontal text labels” will alter Text to be Horizontal BUT also open a gap for the text which is a separate setting (Text above dimension Line). Undo doesn’t works on this properly - used multiple times will even change the dim color which wasn’t changed in this operation.

New drawing:

1. Same test scenario - same issue.
2. Dim settings = Horizontal text Labels ticked, Text above dimension Line ticked produces a dim horizontal orientated with a gap instead to put the text above the line

 2253 QCAD (main)Bug ReportLow Print Preview incorrect page size Closed

Task Description

In Print Preview the movable display of the printing area (white) is displayed to small which makes a multi page arrangement very difficult. You want not notice the wrong size when you print only one page but 10 pages vertical in a row will show the effect clearly. I checked a metric (mm) and an imperial (inch) unit. The deviation in Imperial is clearer than in Metric.

Feature request? Bug? I don’t know ... ;-)

NumBlock Enter key is not accepted by “Coordinate” tool to confirm the settings in the option bar (green Arrow icon). Enter key on main keyboard works.

 2232 QCAD/CAMBug ReportLow Nesting fails when parts fit plus minus null on sheets Closed
100%
Task Description

Just lost a detailed report (token?)- now a short version!

Nesting fails when parts fit plus minus null on sheets. My parts should fit regarding to the measurements on a sheet multiple times. The nesting tool can’t find a solution.

Options are:
Quantity multiplier: 0
Rotation: 4
Sheet margin: 0
Margin: 0
Tolerance: 0

If I modify the parts and make them slightly smaller then a nesting is done as expected. Did I miss something?
