Well I would be interested in as well.
I understand the arguments of CVH, but I'm always using a template in DINA4 or DINA3 so for me it would be nice to have that feature.
However on the other hand it isn't much more work involved to export a pdf addionally.

Re: Get templates to load faster?
Hi,
I have 10 templates in my templates folder and the menu opens in a bit less than 2 seconds. My templates are around 26 kB as the contain just a frame, a drawing head for the informations like customer, date, etc. and not more. So I assume it is just a question of the file size.

Re: Print preview strange
Speechless. I could have searched hours without finding this. Nothing listed in the block list but still something on the drawing. I have no idea how I created this. So there is still good chances that I do this again, but at least I know now how to get rid of it. Thanks for showing me the fault and...

[solved] Print preview strange
Hi there, I have a problem which I can't understand. I work with some templates to make floor plans. For whatever reason one of my templates is producing a very unusual behaviour as the drawing is not fitting anymore on my sheet of paper - don't know how to describe that - even not in German :roll: ...

Re: Modifizieren / Kopieren ergibt unvollständige Abbilder
Lustig, ich habe den Post eben erst gesehen. Das sehr ähnliches Problem hatte ich gestern und ich mußte ein wenig suchen.... Bei mir war es so, dass ich z.B. eine Linie in Farbe und Strichstärke geändert habe, dann die Linie verschoben habe und die Änderungen von Farbe und Strichstärke wieder zurück...

Re: double (bracketed) dimensions
@ Husky, I want it too and I know why this makes sense - although I have to agree, yes it is only useful with the unit behind it. When we make drawings for some countries like UK, USA, they want to see the footprints of their machines in feet-inches and as well in mm. The world would be a lot easier...

File Thumbnail Preview
Hi there,
is there any chance to get a preview thumbnail in the explorer window? Like there is on pictures and pdf files?
Sometimes this could help to search for a drawing - depending on how complex they are.

Re: Manual/EBook
I have read it.
It's a great help for someone who is not used to work with CAD programs.
However, learning from scratch is still some work.
The built in manual helps, and if you ask a question in this board you will always get an answer within a couple of hours.

Re: Save block under new name [solved]
Don't rename just the blocks - please think about my explanation .... :wink: I have already done the renaming with three library entries and they look ok now. There is only one block entry if inserted with the library browser. To explode them is a lot more work. I have tried that as well but I cann...

Re: Save block under new name
Well after exploring a bit for myself I can make an educated guess about what happened. In the beginning I exported all library items from Autosketch by placing them on a drawing sheet and saving that as a dxf file. In QCAD I have made library blocks from them and named them different from the old A...

Re: Save block under new name
@Husky, thanks for the quick tutorial, now I understand how to do it. By the way, are you using Active Presenter to record your desktop? Unfortunately I have never paid attention to the block list in the past and by repeating what you have shown me I felt into another problem. I have not checked all...

Re: Save block under new name
Well I have worked a bit with the ideas given now. Especially with the duplicate function. Not so ergonomic or I still overlook something. Given situation: Two or more library blocks of the same kind (lets call it block7) on a complex drawing and I want to make changes to one of the three. I duplica...

Re: Edit block
Ok - now I understand what I have to do in case I have to rename a block. But I have no idea about the reason / working in the background. The model space is my drawing, and all the other items in the blocklist is virtually just the list of bits and pieces which are in the file, regardless if they a...

Holding Wheel down = free panning (+zoom) As some others did report this too in the past: This is rather difficult without actually changing the zoom factor. But I don't have to agree with the 'wrong or right', 'Better', 'Common', 'a hell'. Regards, CVH You get used to holding wheel down - and you ...
