Pour tester les versions intermédiaires de QCAD, il est préférable de les installer dans un répertoire séparé en décompressant l'archive en zip, les deux versions peuvent ainsi fonctionner cote à cote. Cela évite de perturber la version stable, 3.0 en l’occurrence. Avant de ré installer, supprimez l...

Ok, hope Andrew won't mind the extra work, I put in the feature request: http://www.ribbonsoft.com/bugtracker/in ... ask_id=798

Purge unused layers is definitely a handy tool, but it would be nice to have some modulation on the action. I usually start a new drawing with a few specific layers (center, auxiliary, hidden, text...), I like to keep those, even if they remain empty for a while at the beginning. I tried the locking...

Hi Clive,
Thanks for the info, I tried what you described, and indeed, it does exactly what I experienced. Now, I don't remember whether I had a hidden layer when I noticed the problem, but at least, I'll know where to start looking if it does happen again!

Bonsoir Jack, Il y a peut-être une subtilité de Windows, le 7 est truffé d'interdictions pour la sécurité! Le manuel de référence n'est qu'un descriptif rapide des commandes, plutôt un aide mémoire. Si vous ne connaissez pas du tout QCAD, je vous conseille le livre, c'est un bon investissement! Cord...

Hi Clive, The problem is that it is not recurrent, there must be certain conditions to trigger the phenomenon. I tried another block on the same drawing, and all was fine. Not a big deal, just annoying... My download expired after 3.05, so I'm waiting for the next full release to renew. I will keep ...

Quite often, if I create a block from a selection, it disappears from the main window upon the closing of the dialog window. I then have to re insert the block from the block list...
QCAD 3.0 and Win7-64

Helios is used on the Med in Marseille. It is not currently used far out at sea, but it does take heavy seas quite well.

Maybe another hybrid boat transmission?

This one is for Husky: here's the unit I built with your help on the gear design, works nicely. The hardest part was achieving a decent shape for the bit I used to cut the gears...

Hello,
I may be dumb but I cannot find the link "http://www.ribbonsoft.com/en/qcad-add-ons" from the menu site...

Thanks for the reminder Clive, that's one tool which will be a definite plus!

Hi Clive,
That's right, all other entities are recognized except circles and arcs. I checked this behavior in 2.2.2.0, same thing.

Hi Husky,
This looks perfect to me, thank you very much for your time.

Hi Husky,
Thanks for your efforts. Quite close indeed. Major difference is mostly on tooth height and depth, probably because I used different formulas for OD and foot diameter. The profile you propose is certainly stronger, but no power is transmitted in this case...
