qcad does not read the rotation angle

[faridcher]

Hi,

thanks for QCAD. I exported an entity to dxf through gdal/ogr. I set the rotation angle of a text entity to 269. QCAD does not apply this angle to the text correctly and shows 15412.564689 in the Text Angle field. AUTOCAD shows it fine. I use qcad 3.22.1 on Debian unstable.

Hi,

using your example drawing ..... looks good to me.

How can I reproduce the issue?

If we open your bug.dxf from the site the text angle is simply 269 degrees.
And looks like Husky's png.
It isn't 15412.564689 what should reduce to 292.564689 degrees.
And should exactly look as your screenshot.

Is that different on your machine? After reopen?
How did the text got imported?
Where did you enter 269?
While importing, pasting, entered in the Text Editor, Changing Properties?

Further I can see that the text displays Inverse in the TextEditor Rich Text view.
(Remark the little directions marks at the text pointer)
This is off course a text one reads from right to left apart from the numbers.
So multiple reading direction changes.

Last remark:
Drawing Unit: Meter
PaperUnit: Millimeter
Measurement System: Imperial

It is always more interesting to get a buggy file where we try to do the same thing as you did.
Once a bug is reproducible we can investigate the origin.
