How do I change the printed symbol of points?

Post by smf » Wed Mar 21, 2012 8:42 am

Hi,

in QCAD3 RC2 points were printed as crosses, in QCAD3 RC4 they are printed as (very little) points. I think this isn't a bug but a feature. ;-)

How do I change this behaviour / how can I get the crosses of RC2 in RC4?

Best regards - Stefan

Could well be a feature change - but however you can use;

For bugs and feature requests.

To request to add 'back in' the 'cross' to this tool set!

solved: RC4 has script support

printing by scripts, starting with RC4 there is a new view-function
view.setPrintPointSize(new RVector(size/destScale, size/destScale));
