[solved] no rulers, no grid

Post by wchilds » Sun Jan 19, 2020 6:12 pm

I am just getting started with QCAD Professional. At first everything was ok. Then rulers and grid disappeared. Despite much fiddling with "Drawing Preferences" and "Application Preferences", I am not able to get them back. Any help would be appreciated.
Windows 10, QCAD 3.24.2.0(3.24.2).

Let's start with the rulers. They are activated below ...

Thank you for your prompt reply. However, "Show rulers" is and has been checked with no rulers.

I assume it is a clean installation what means there is no chance that different QCAD versions are mixed in the same directory. Correct?
If possible please attache a screenshot.
