Re: Creating Custom Hatching?
@ ryancousins,
oh my god - I can't even remember what I had for breakfast and now you are asking what changed in the last 10 years?
Yes, you are right. The "old days QCAD" was only able to handle dxf hatches - now we are able to deal with .pat as it should be.

Re: Bemaßung gemäß DIN 1356 (Bauwesen)
Hi, meine Meinung: :wink: Ich vermute, die Integration der DIN 1356 in QCAD ist keine Raketenwissenschaft ;). Wahrscheinlich hast Du recht das es isoliert betrachtet keine "Raketenwissenschaft" ist aber ich denke hier sollte das größere Bild gesehen werden. QCAD ist ein international eingesetztes Pr...

Re: Alternative Linux themes
Yeah I might be able to see if I can fix it, bit tricky not having a Win10 box though. Looks like there are only three little issues - I marked it on the heather screenshot. I'm sure you will find more ... :shock: Would it be OK to send you direct if I think I can fix it for you to try? Yes, that's...

Re: Alternative Linux themes
Please note these will only display correctly in Linux, there are issues in the macOS which renders them useless, no idea about Windows OS, dropped that years ago. Oh oh - I installed it on Win10. I'm now in trouble??? :lol: :lol: :lol: And it looks already pretty good. Ok, not perfect but good. Th...

Re: Creating Custom Hatching?
Hello, Hello again, Is there a way to create custom hatching? Yes and the www will give you information on all rules how to create a .pat file. We use a lot of timber in our drawings, and I would like to be able to show end-grain on my drawings where it would be a cut through a piece of timer. Makes...

Re: Introduction and ? s
Hi Bryan, Is QCAD a subscription? No. If you purchased the software you can use it for ever. Does QCAD have layering abilities, off, on, ability to draw in the current layer only? Yes. Doing landscape design and I draw all of my objects for a more "unique" effect... are lineweights variable? Yes. Ca...

Re: Switch between metric & english?
Hi, Is there a way to toggle between english and metric in QCad? Yes. I'm currently stuck in inches and no matter what I set the drawing units to in Edit->General->Drawing_Unit it stays in inches. That will simply explained only change the name of the unit. e.g. a 100 inch line is then 100 mm. To ch...

Re: Change properties of all layers in 1x
Hi, Is there any way how to do it? I just needed to change all colours in existing drawing into black. You could change the properties in the Property Editor from color "by Layer" to color "black". Note: That will overwrite the layer setting - not change the layer attributes! Husky-2021.01.12-01.png...

Re: Metric conversion operation in Offset Distance dialog
Hi, Convert 3 Metres to feet in Offset distance dialog. Metres * Feet Conversion(3.28084) If entered 3*3.28084' TypeError is Returned. I can't reproduce the type error. BTW: Your drawing is in inch. If you enter 3*3.28084 the proper result would be 9.84252 inch! QCAD interprets 3*3.28084 as 3 inch *...
