Re: How do I set the thickness of lines?
Hi, and welcome to the QCAD forum. First, CAD uses a limited set of Line-weights from 0.05 up to 2.11 mm whatever your measurement system or drawing unit is. That is the thickness of your line-art on paper or on screen when not using screen based line types. This has been a standard from the days wh...

Re: How to hatch-fill a shape?
Hi, and welcome to the QCAD forum. A Hatch is a separated entity that you created with menu Draw .. Hatch and then from selection or from segments. https://www.ribbonsoft.com/doc/qcad/latest/reference/en/scripts/Draw/Hatch/HatchFromSelection/doc/HatchFromSelection_en.html https://www.ribbonsoft.com/...

Additional Button icons for Misc/Select.
All, I provided Andrew with some simplistic tool icons for the Misc/Select menu/toolbar/... All because the default preferences for these tools is to use empty icon files on toolbars. (One could however opt to exclude them from toolbars ... aka customizing) Before: MissingMiscSelectIcons.png After: ...

Re: Affichage
Salut, Dans ce cas, il s'agit de la position polaire relative par rapport au zéro relatif (le petit cercle barré de rouge). Le zéro relatif est généralement votre dernière coordonnée définie, une fonctionnalité importante pour l'utilisation du positionnement relatif. Vous pouvez modifier cela avec l...

Re: Software needed?
Hi, And welcome to the forum. There are a few topics concerning ArcDroid, simply enter the search term 'ArcDroid'. As far as I know it supports dxf files as well as common G-Code. To draw something in dxf then QCAD would be enough, QCAD Professional provides even more tool/methods for a small fee. Q...

Re: Dashed lines, Sketch, 2D, single layer
Hi, It is common that the attributes of entities that live on a layer are inherited from the layer. For that we use ' By Layer ' for the entity properties: Color, Lineweight and Linetype. You can also force something different with using custom attributes for each entity. For a selection of entities...

Re: Select 2 or more elements and combine to create one
Hi, and welcome to the QCAD forum. Creating a linked chain of line and/or arc segments from loose elements can be done by polylines entities. One can convert existing line-art into polylines. Things that are no line and/or arc segments are approximated by such, see the Explode preferences for the us...

Re: Select Overlapping Entities with Alt+left-click
Can't replicate your TA .. TN .. Alt-Select issue, sorry.
There is no Preference in 'Behavior' that could be turned off.
An option you could try in last resort is resetting your configuration:

Re: [solved] - Toolpath Skips Block
About grouping, yes ACAD has something like that (but as you say a little bit wonky) while Rhino3D has a very good one. It operates as a simple collective selection tool. @ newyd_cnc, Have successfully implemented a entity group selection tool ... Beta version ... :P It is fairly similar as the 2D ...

Re: Calculate curve to make two curved panel fit together
In the long, long run, I'm thinking of using FreeCad to do a 3D version of these pieces. And maybe designing an exploded view. All good fun. Probably good for solids but I don't think that there is a corrugated cardboard method and rendering engine included. Being a 3D concept and preferring FreeCa...

Re: Calculate curve to make two curved panel fit together
The intersections were good, but the panels were short by about 1/4". I'm not sure why. Perhaps the fluting. From the spreadsheet data: Required elongation for a 22.418203541554" long arc is 1.01% or 0.226424" more and that fits the 1/4" .... :wink: Your flat face needs to be scaled 1.01% up in len...

Re: CAM path set to Z=0 on spoilboard: tried but tabs not working
First, industry standard or not, the guy probably refers to mills with a T-slotted metal surface. Mostly not intended for sheet material. It is called a SPOIL-board for something ... A cheap board that can be spoiled. I know of major players that advice Zwork-zero = top of material. He shortcuts mat...
