Hi
I want to use QCad capabilities in an external application. For example develop an application with Delphi that draw some 2D entities on its UI but with QCad APIs. Is there any way?

Re: Use QCad to develop an external application
QCAD uses the Qt toolkit (qt.io). I don't think this will fully integrate with something like Delphi.
You could call into QCAD as an external process and return from QCAD to your app when the user presses a special button or quits QCAD or similar.
