Task Description
Hi there,
A friendly request to add the option to set a maximum lineweight for raster conversions via dwg2bmp.
Depending on the LW configuration of the CAD file, rasterization operations sometimes yield terrible results (see attachment). This would also mirror the similar “-min-lineweight” options available on “dwg2svg” and “dwg2pdf” (although not on “dwg2bmp”).

1473 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | "Partial" circular/radial dimensions | Assigned | |
2 |
Task Description
This is kind of related to FS#952, or rather a superset of it.
Consider the situation in the attached image. There is a perfectly good, albeit really shallow arc, making the radius somewhere in the vicinity of 600 millimeters, and the radial dimension being drawn accordingly.
Considering the other dimensions of the part, this is completely unusable, even to work with, really, but definitely so when it needs to be put on paper.
It would be nice to have some sort of “partial” (for my lack of a better word) radial/diametric dimensions where the dimension length can be adjusted.
Considering that this can be done with Leader, maybe a better (more generic) solution would be for Leader type dimensions to have options so they could automatically generate labels for various dimensions of a selected entity – sort of like having the Prefix/Tolerance/Scale options the other dimensions have, and have some additional fields there for selected entity and maybe dimension type (for example, radial or diametric for an arc-type entity).

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?

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

Hi, this is a usability feature request:
If you want to move an object relatively to any point (e.g. by entering @x;y in commandline) it does’nt make sense to enter a starting reference point. Of course this is possible by clicking to any location on the screen. But it’s difficult to change between mouse and keyboard so often.
It should be possible to enter a “don’t care” or “any” reference point by pressing a keyboard shortcut (e.g. enter like in AutoCAD).

Task Description
My system: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20GHz and 8 GB of RAM and NVIDIA GT218 (GeForce 210)
For a normal drawing displaying it in all detail is a good thing and the performance of my quad-core system is more than adequate.
But I discovered (or rather experienced) that when putting a large collection of individual drawings of gears onto one big sheet (960 mm x 600 mm - preparation for laser cutting), the performance was so bad that I had to wait several seconds (>10 sec) for each step in the process of arranging all the parts on the layer.
Request: It would be a big help and performance booster if you could disable the detailed view of each part/layer and only draw a rectangle to visualize the outline of the part.
Please take this in consideration. Attached you find an example of how that could look like. (Actually when pasting a drawing from the clipboard you already do that.)

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.)

Task Description
Currently, the model space can display lineweights at scale 1:1 It’s very convenient when drawing small objects that will be printed at scale 1:1 : it makes it easy to anticipate the final aspect of the printed drawing. But this feature is unusable for architects or users who draw large objects.
Therefore, it would be very useful to have a factor to multiply lineweight display in model space. For example : if i know my drawing will probably be printed at scale 1:50, i set the value of the lineweight factor to 50. Then every line would be displayed 50x thicker in model space.

1 |
Task Description
In a medium complex drawing it may be too much details to have all layers in a drawing visible at once.
Instead a number of views would be created that saves not only zoom level and position but also what layers are visible and not (as appropriate for the purpose of that particular view). This is very cumbersome (to the extent it is not really realistic) to achieve today and requires a lot of duplication of both model and layers.
The advantage of adding this is the ability to have only one model (with multiple views) and avoid duplication of work and the risk of inconsistency inherent with many copies of the model.
As a further (and natural extension to this) would be the ability to used this functionality with view-ports to be able to create (possibly many) paper-spaces from a single model. This would however require view-ports to be aware of what view they are a window into. A single change in the model would then propagate to all defined view-ports and paper-spaces.

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.

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.

2540 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Retain original handle when Hatch properties are change... | Assigned | |
1 |
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.

Many times I’m faced with the situation that I have to use a rectangle related to other entities. Dimensions/Angle = unknown.
We have in QCAD a rectangle tool with a two point diagonal determination but this is limited to two points and it will only work in a horizontal and vertical direction.
My feature request is based on the idea to draw a rectangle with 3 points - regardless the angle.
1. First point: start
2. second point: determination of the first side (width?) and it will also provide the angle for the rectangle
3. third point: determination second side (height?)
I’m asking for an additional new tool? No - just as an option to the existing rectangle tool ...

1104 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Printing: Add support for page range | Assigned | |
1 |
Task Description
When printing from the preview mode a standard Windows popup shows, letting me select the printer, number of copies and a page range. Unfortunately QCAD (or Windows) ignores the page range - it always prints all pages. So right now I always have to copy the parts I want to print, page them into a separate document and print that instead - even though I got all my stuff nicely lined up for printing on multiple pages.

1288 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Print Preview Scaled Rulers | Assigned | |

Task Description
Would be nice, if in print preview QCAD rulers would switch to paper dimensions. Chat here http://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=3793
After all, print preview is not just the drawing on white, isn’t it? Everything else should stay in drawing units. Just the rulers, maybe a preference?

1172 | QCAD (main) | Feature Request | Low | Print Preview - Add 'Place Paper Option' tool | Assigned | |
1 |
Task Description
Often in print preview I need to move the paper around and position it with the ‘Move Paper Position’ tool, which is useful, but what would be an additional extra useful option would be a ‘Place Paper Here’ tool.
Then I could simply use this tool first and then use the ‘Move Paper Position’ tool afterwards to fine tune things!
If you look at the attached image you will see that in this students file they have got their drawing spread out all over the place:(
