QCAD 3.23.0.2
File / New from Template fails in different situation like immediately after launching the tool, sometimes after changing directories in the dialog like from imperial to metric etc..
QCAD tries for ever (wait cursor) or even quits QCAD. It’s not a clear pattern ...

3.23.0.2 doesn’t works
3.23.0 works

Reported on Ubuntu 19.4, Win10

3.23.02 Block toggle switch for visibility fails.
3.23.0 Block toggle switch for visibility works.

Closed splines (Control points) are saved as “not closed” with a new knot (when DXF is closed and re-opened).
Is this behavious intended ?

Then QCAD exits (does not start). As far as I remember, 3.23.0.2 release was fine.

When using D2 on the vertical line (orange line in the attached example) a small zero length line is left over. This doesn’t happen if the vertical orangle line were a finite, line with two distinct endpoints.

QCAD Pro fails to write R10, R9, R2.6, R2.5 dwg files. Younger types and dxf work as expected.
Tested the issue back to QCAD 3.18 - no version is able to save those file types.

Create polyline from clockwise arc with total angle > 180°.
Export as SVG.
SVG path arc data does not export sweep correctly.

Wrong orientation is returned for polylines with large arcs (>180d).

Replaces  FS#1967 .

Snapshot 3.23.04

Spacing for symbols in layer list way to wide compared to previous versions.

Version 3.23.03 - Husky-2019.10.22-02.png
Version 3.23.04 - Husky-2019.10.22-01.png

Drawing created with a previous QCAD version has issues to be correctly displayed in the current snapshot.
e.g. drawing opened in QCAD 3.23.0 - works flawless.
same drawing opened in QCAD 3.23.4 - has problems to show inserted blocks correctly.

With some unit and scale combinations dots rather look like dashes.

Cases:

1. QCAD default start drawing:
Application Preferences, Page Tags enabled,
Load new drawing (Menu/File/New),
Launch Print Preview, Page Tags not displayed on print preview page,
Check Drawing Preferences shows that Page Tags are still enabled, turn it off, turn it on, confirm with OK makes the Page Tags visible on the Print Page.

2. Customized start template drawing - saved as template with enabled Page Tags - same behavior.

Hatch of full circle (loaded from DXF) does not export to SVG.

Hello
Qcad does not show! DWF-files. it seems, that the File is opened, but thre is nothing displayed on the screen. onl the Rastes is showed, but not the DWf-drawing.

Duplicating layer “0” results in duplicate entities on same layer instead of new layer.

Case:
Infinitive line,
launch Divide (DI),
click infinitive line

An orthogonal preview line should now indicates where the cut will happen when the next point is chosen.
QCAD version 3.23.0.5 displays that indicator below a variable angle to the infinitive line. Regardless what it shows - the cut will happen orthogonal.

If I insert a bitmap the relative zero point (RZ) isn’t set at all. It will be set at the mouse position in the moment when I terminate the tool.

This leads among other things that I can’t use the Alt key for ortho mode or other tools for restrictions.

If I use accidentally explode on a ray or infinitive line the line will be deleted without a warning.

QCAD 3.23.0.5

1. If I use accidentally explode on a bitmap it will be deleted without a warning.

2. If I select an area with a selection rectangle as preparation for the “Clip to rectangle” tool all bitmaps within the selection are deleted - without a warning.

QCAD 3.23.0.5

- Open a DXF file with CECOLOR (current drawing color) set to 256 (ByLayer).
- Save DXF
- CECOLOR has changed

Hi,
When a hatch have been offset in the Model then it appears incorrectly when rendered in a Viewport. It seems that in Viewports the hatch Origin value is not taken into consideration. This means that when adjusting a hatch in the Model to look correct (align along a line for example). This alignment is off in the Viewport.

See screenshots and attached test dxf file in this thread on the forum: https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=6742

Edit: After looking more into this issue is seems it is the Viewport’s position that is ignored when transforming the pattern into Viewport space. See the following gif:

https://i.imgur.com/vD8cOuC.gif

Above it can be seen that that pattern is always rendered in ‘worldspace’ since the pattern is static (the pattern is not moved when the viewport is moved around)

Add preference for library browser icon background color.

Bugreport filled on behalf of John Hyslop / QCAD forum member.

If launching the Menu / Block / “Create Block from selection” tool the usually used Command Line dialog to prompt to the next required action is missing.
The Status bar is properly calling for “Reference Point” etc.

The out redirection file is not located in temp dir but in the batch files location. Due to missing file permissions in “C:\Programs\...” the file cannot be created.

This is a fixed an therefore working version of bbox.bat:

@echo off
qcad.exe -no-gui -allow-multiple-instances -autostart scripts\Pro\Tools\BoundingBox\BoundingBox.js %0 %* 1>%temp%\bbox.log 2>&1

type %temp%\bbox.log
del %temp%\bbox.log

Calling bbox tool via batch file works:

Draw an ellipse, select it, draw an hatch of type gravel: it doesn’t appear at all.

Only for gravel.

Hello. I refer to https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?p=25905#p25905 where when a block is hatched that hatch reference point is located at absolute 0,0 )where the block reference point is mapped as the reference point of the hatch and that reference point is absolute 0,0).
Best regards

Using QCAD 3.23.0.10
Win 10

I like the new shape tool “Star”. Comes at the right time

Would be nice if we could get the same options like all other shape tools: “Create Polyline” and “Fill”.

I have an example of a figure that I can solid-fill, but if I save and exit, and reload, it disappears.

Arcs in blocks are not rendered smoothly if the block is inserted with a scale factor > 1.

Example shows the effect on a ring (Menu → Draw → Ring)

Open the example drawing,
selected all,
copy to clipboard,
open new drawing,
paste clipboard content with a scale of 1:1, check preview = everything ok,
change scale to 1/10 etc., check preview = block references way of.

QCAD Pro Version 3.24.0.1

Block scales are not applied to the radius of arc segments of polylines and arc boundary segments of hatches.

- Create clockwise arc
- Convert to polyline
- Assign segment end width > 0

Clip to Area = deletes whole blocks
Clear Area = deletes whole blocks
Cut at Area Boundary = deletes whole blocks

It was working before e.g. in QCAD Version 3.18.0

Create drawing in Meters.
Create line with line weight 0.25mm.
Line prints as 1cm wide as minimum line weight is forced as 0.01 drawing units (i.e. 0.01m) for printing.

Wenn ich selbst erstellte Blocks Spiegle, funtionieren gewisse Fangpunkte nicht mehr.

In der angehängten Datei, ist der gespiegelte Block und deren inaktive Fangpunkte mit Roten Kreisen markiert.

Ich arbeite mit macOS Catalina 10.15.2

Vielen Dank für das Beheben dieses Bugs, der mich gerade sehr viel Zeit kostet ;-(
