Dimensions problem

Post by Jaime Pires » Sat Apr 11, 2020 12:36 pm

I installed now version 3.24.3 and got trouble when trying to read old files. Lines are too large. try to change line properties without success... I add a print screen.
I have a professional licence but I am not expert using this kind of products.

Hi, jaime Pires

Please elaborate your problem in full.
Do you have problems with dimensions, line weigth or both?
Could you attach the file?

Regards,
CVH

Hi
When opening a draw and zoom in I have problems with line weigh, as you can see in the previous attached picture. Line weight grow. Even new lines don't work. It was fine with my previous version.

Hi. I think I fixed it. For some reason the new version come with Scale Line Type Parameters on.
So: I disable it on: Aplication preferences, Graphics view
And than, in same folder I put Default Lineweight for 0,00mm
Apparently is working.

Meaning that the entities are all drew by default weight?!
Odd fashion.

Just curious - the screenshots are not from the same computer, correct?

Hi
Screenshots are from the same computer. You have only one Screenshot with two versions side by side...

Thanks for the info. Now I'm completely confused! You are able to run two QCAD sessions/versions at the same time?
