Select Contour with adjustable distance threshold

Post by KralcSivad » Sat Feb 15, 2020 3:25 am

I find the "double-click on an element to select the whole contour" function of Qcad quite useful but I am often working on drawings with small geometry and the software selects multiple contours that are close but not actually connected. It would be great if the threshold distance that the software uses to determine which points are part of a contour and which are not could be modified by the user. Possibly in the Drawing Preferences.

Thanks CVH,

That's exactly what I was hoping for. This is a very useful addition to my favorite 2d cad software.

Best
