Re: Copying drawings

how can I save the same layers that I did in 12" to 7mm to 1ft? Not sure I understand. Scaling should not do anything to your layers. Do you want to create a scaled copy on different layers or copy the scaled drawing to a new file or something similar? Also how do you get the measurement rulers in ...

Re: Incorrect Printing from Print Preview

Thanks for the details. There appears to be a problem with the printer driver or communication between our framework (Qt) and your printer or printer driver. Unfortunately, this is a problem that seems to be unique to your particular setup and is unlikely to be fixable on our end, so printing to PDF...

Re: Incorrect Printing from Print Preview

Thanks for the file. I'm unable to reproduce that problem here. I also created a PDF (uses the same logic as for printing) and it comes out just fine (see attached PDF). Perhaps you can try to print this PDF and check if that comes out right? Another possible problem could be the use of lineweight 0...

Re: Add a 5/8inch perimeter on imported images

Re: printing issue

luv_zen_13: My guess is that you have been adjusting the defaults for new drawings in application preferences instead of the preferences of the current drawing. Be sure to start the drawing preferences dialog with menu: Edit > Drawing Preferences Do NOT adjust drawing settings in Edit > Application ...

Thanks for your report. Please provide more details, so I can help you efficiently. - Does the crash occur if you only start QCAD and wait (don't start any tools, don't open any files). - Does the crash always occur if you try to open a file (try the example files included in your QCAD installation ...

Re: How to move Origin away from LH lower point of drawing?

Note that moving the absolute zero point (or origin) is exactly the same as moving your entire drawing: - Make sure all layers are visible - Select > Select All - Modify > Move / Copy - Set reference point at new position of absolute zero point - Click the current absolute zero point as target point...

Re: Layer list window setup

I like the current layout because the eyes and locks are in one column respectively. It's also possible that more columns will be added in the future. IMHO, adding all these columns before the layer name would look very awkward for layer hierarchies because of the different indentations. What do you...

Re: How do I delete?

What you are asking is how to put QCAD back into 'neutral' mode after starting a tool. In QCAD, you can start a tool and when you're done working with it, you have to terminate it (QCAD does not know if you still want to draw more lines or not). To terminate a tool, you have several options: - Click...
