Can't copy paste in same drawing!

Post by MUSHDesign77 » Thu Jun 11, 2020 11:19 am

Hi,

Since a while, actually since I paid for an update I can't copy and paste in my drawings.

Not in the same drawing and not from on to another. Same scale, same dwg.

What is happening here?!

And, how can I set a manual value in the measurements?

Help, or I just have to leave Qcad...

Mixed instalations?
Is there a error on the command line after pasting?
Could it be this?

This can have various reasons and without the drawing file(s), I can only do a wild guess... (hint: attach the drawing file).

Here's the wild guess:
- Check the options in the options tool bar at the top while pasting. For example, if the scale factor is "0", you won't see much.

You can also reset your QCAD installation to make sure all settings are back to defaults:
