Task Description

Not served with the degration to ‘Suggestion’  FS#1759 .
Demanded closing  FS#1759  & re-entered

Locking entities (by layer) to avoid selection,eg. nearby,very close by or on the same spot, does not have the intended influence.

Asumed wrong:
- Modify DI
- Modify B2
- Modify D3
- Modify MT
These 4 need a single entity to be selected and selection of a locked entity is allowed.(=questionable)
The action will allways leed to ‘not allowed’.(=correct)

Questionable:
- Modify RM
- Modify CH
- Modify RN
These 3 need a pair of entities.
RM: Selection of a locked limiting entity is allowed (=questionable), enity to trim not.(=correct)
The action will trim unlocked entities to the locked limiter.(=questionable)
CH & RN: Selection of a pair of entities is allowed.(=questionable)
Trimming if ‘trim’ is on will not occur because locked and leeds to ‘not allowed’.(=correct)
The creation of the bevel or rounding on an active locked layer will not occur because locked and leeds to ‘not allowed’.(=correct)
The creation, except for polyline segments (because locked themself), on an active unlocked layer will be done.(=correct)

Less severe but still questionable: (because these don’t necerally act on the locked entities themselves)
- Modify OF

- Modify SS
OF: Selection of a locked base entity is allowed.(=questionable)

 1765 QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery Low Errors with polyline offset Closed
100%
1 Task Description

Win 7 32 bit QCAD 3.20.1

Ofsset of a base-line with arcs results in massive ammount of errors.
Most of them occur as a cluster of very tiny segments and are part of the offset. (zoom far in at the red circles)
Mostly they occur where the offsetted arcs should merely be trimmend pairwise.
Some occur as detached entities or as detached strings of entities very near the offset (strings not documented).
Spooks occur at opposite site when base-line is not closed.
360° curls can occur with R = Offset.
Null-entities may occur (not documented, hard to find and not able to copy).

The base-line is checked and sound and has mixed tangentially or not tangentially connected arcs.
Offsetting the mother base-line of the base in the file has similar effect but not all and/or different ones.
Also encountered with offseting polys from fonts.
Used to define pocket paths for CNC.
Detected because the CNC driver will not accept Self-crossers, Null-entities or open ends depending on the settings.

Work arround is to explode and select small entities but this does not solves the issues.
1) Choosing the tolerance large enough will detect small segments that should stay.
2) Recombining will generate new ones at the place where the main segments remain crossed.
Cleaning up the paths is a daunting process with some thousand segments for several offsets.

I assume this has an infuence on the CAM part of QCAD too unless the offset method is different.

1900QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery LowRemote shares initially not accessible.Assigned
0%
Task Description

My data files are stored on network shares (synology) with a GB link. QCAD Pro is run in Admin mode.

While in my Windows browser all remote shares are accessible (Green), in the QCAD file open menu they are initially shown as not accessible (Red). By accessing a specific drawing file in a remote share, the share will open and turn green.

Same behavior using ‘Open recent’. Always the message is given that the requested file does not exist, and the file is wiped from the ‘Recent Open’ list. Only if the share is first accessed through ‘Open’ with a random file, it will turn and a ‘recent open’ file for that share will open.

Drag and Drop from a remote share will never work.

1 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.

Task Description

Yesterday I set up a Windows 64 bit install of QCAD Pro which shows the same bug I have been seeing for a while in the Community linux git repo.

Create a new drawing and then go to “Print preview”. Enable “Move paper postion”, the cursor changes to the hand icon, but the paper position is unable to be moved. Only by saving the drawing, exiting the program, restarting and reopening the drawing, will the “Move paper postion” function correctly.

Affected versions tested:

Windows 64bit installer download, as of yesterday.

0%
Task Description

QCAD 3.24.2 / macOS x86_64 10.14.6

Starting with empty doc:
1. Draw any object (e.g. a rectangle) on layer 0.
2. Create new layer (”1”) with color, say yellow.
3. Select new layer
4. Select new object
5. Modify → Move / Copy
6. Click reference point
7. Click target point same as reference point
8. In “Move / Copy Options” dialog, select “Delete Original” and check “Use current layer and attributes.” Click OK.

The moved object stays on the layer it was previously on. Using “Move / Copy” as a quick way to move a selection between layers is not useful even though it appears to be the recommended way in a Google search.

Note: if “Keep Original” is selected instead, the copied object is placed on the current layer and the original object remains on its layer, as expected.

Note: if the target point is different from the reference point, the moved object is placed on the current layer as expected.

There are other workarounds too, cut / paste with “To current layer” checked seems to work, as does chaging the layer in the Properties Editor.

Andrew,
While enhancing DrawFromCSV: Forum Link.
I had a peek at the new command line tool: dwg2csv

I would never come up with 115 columns.
That wouldn’t be efficient to generate entities from.
Although this way it is very complete and one could use specific lists to filter.
One downside is that the ‘-list’ switch return is far too vast for the windows command line.



Remarked that:
Only the first alphabetically custom property is listed under:
QCAD:Line & QCAD:Reference (columns 114-115).
And that the last encountered is persistent for all entities that follows.

Maybe this originates from a multiple entity selection ...
... what also retains the last encountered custom properties in the property editor.
Should I add a seperate task for that?



Also had an exception thrown:
Debug: dropped global XDATA (no res buf): “ViewportCenter”.
Discarted that as this very basic test drawing hasn’t even a Viewport.

 2225 QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery Low Filenames containing an ampersand do not render correct ...Closed
100%
Task Description

If a file is opened whose filename contains an ampersand, the filename will be rendered correctly in the application titlebar, but the tab bar and the Window menu will not display the ampersand.

If, however, the ‘alt’ key is pressed, the ampersand will result in an underscore appearing beneath the character immediately following it in the filename string. This applies both to the titlebar and the Window menu.

Interestingly, this can be “exploited” by a user to quickly switch between tabs by pressing ‘alt’ and the character which follows the ampersand simultaneously. Likewise, a user can swap between windows using the Window menu in a similar fashion, by first pressing Alt+W, then Alt and the same key as before.

The expected result is that the ampersand is rendered, the underscore is not rendered, and the ‘alt’ key shortcuts don’t work.

It would appear that this is a simple case of failing to properly escape the ampersand in filenames before passing the filename string to various Qt methods.

 2263 QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery Low dwg2svg -min-lineweight option parsing broken Closed
100%
Task Description

The parsing for the -min-lineweight option of dwg2svg is broken, only -w or the undocumented -minlineweight options work.

This is due to a typo in the Dwg2Svg.js script around line 225:

      properties["minLineweight"] = getArgument(args, "-w", "-min-lineweight");
      if (isNull(properties["minlineweight"])) {
          properties["minLineweight"] = getArgument(args, "-w", "-minlineweight");
      }

This should be:

      properties["minLineweight"] = getArgument(args, "-w", "-min-lineweight");
      if (isNull(properties["minLineweight"])) {
          properties["minLineweight"] = getArgument(args, "-w", "-minlineweight");
      }

Note the case minlineweight vs minLineweight.

This has the consequence that the value parsed form -min-lineweight is always replaced with the value from -minlineweight, which is usually undefined.

Since the short option -w is parsed in both cases, it is not affected from the bug.

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 ... ;-)

Task Description

OS: Linux, Mint 20 Cinnamon 4.6.7, QCAD 3.27.8

According to: https://www.qcad.ch/rsforum/viewtopic.php?t=3944 it should be possible to do Alt+Click on overlapping lines to bring up a small context menu to allow resolving the selection ambiguity. In the current version of QCAD I find it necessary to do Ctrl+Alt+Click.

2440QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery LowHatch from Segments > False positives open loop warning...Assigned

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.

 2443 QCAD (main)Bug ReportVery Low Modify > ‘Draw Order’ sub-menu missing Closed
100%
1 Task Description

Andrew,

I don’t seem to be able to locate the ‘Draw Order’ sub-menu of the Modify menu.
Reported version 3.27.6 and 3.27.8 (I use them side by side)
Tested on Win7 32 bit and Win10 64 bit.

I am aware that MF & MB were relocated out of the Modify menu.
Two additional PRO tools were added and all four were listed in a sub-menu.
(MO: version 3.21.3; MC: information missing in changelog)

MF, MB, MO and MC are displayed in the Modify Toolbar, in the Modification Tools panel and in the Tool Matrix.
This is even more curious because DrawOrder.init() only initiates DrawOrder.getMenu();
All three DrawOrder.getToolBar() & DrawOrder.getCadToolBarPanel() & DrawOrder.getToolMatrixPanel() are ruled out.

DrawOrder.getCadToolBarPanel() lists WJ as shortcut QKeySequence but that will bring up the Projections Tool Panel.

In the QCAD Reference Manual (menu Help > Reference Manual) the ‘Draw Order’ icon list is only the Modifying Tools icon.
For all four the tools the manual list up: Menu: Modify > Draw Order > ...

Under App.Prefs. > General > Tool Settings MF and MB are listed but not in a sub-menu like for example “Detection“.
Seemingly under Modify but they remain visible when Modify is collapsed.
MC and MO are listed lower than Help when this is collapsed.

I thought I understood how to implement menus and tools.
All this makes me doubt whether I had understood it in its entirety.
Could you elaborate in a few words why the menu fails but the Toolbar and Panels work even when these are excluded ...

CVH

I see the following problem:
When I open a particular DXF file in the Professional Trial version 3.27.9.0 on macOS, “^I” in text fields is expanded to whitespace.
When I open the same DXF file in the Community Edition 3.27.9.0 on NetBSD/x86_64 (installed from pkgsrc), “^I” in text fields is visible as “^I”.
