Re: Cannot start QCAD on Ubuntu 12.04 [solved]

I'm having a similar problem with re-install using Ubuntu 13.10 64bit. I can find the folder with qcad.txt in can't make it run. Any ideas on how to solve this please? I think I'm on version qCad Pro 3.0

Some odd behaviour with hatch and split entities - Beta3-3?

Hi Andrew

I'm running beta3-2 and have found some possible anomalies but not sure if they might be fixed already. When will beta 3-3 be released please. I'm quite enjoying the ad hoc testing!

Regards
Bob

How do I get the latest Beta 3 to test

Hi Andrew

How can I download the latest Beta 3 to test. I am submitting a few bug reports and some are proving to be duplicates. It would help to be testing against the latest cut.

If I download QCAD 3 beta and install will it over write any QCAD 2.* files or will it make an entirely new file structure so that I can run both? They share no files at all, so you can run them both, even simultaneously. I'm really enjoying QCAD by the way, it takes me back to a program called Des...

Unfortunately, it's an issue with Ubuntu 11.04 64bit which is not providing 32bit variants for all of its libraries. They say they will not fix this issue (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ia32-libs/+bug/783155). As a workaround, you can start QCAD with a non-GTK theme: E.g.: ./qcad -s...

QCAD 3 will have such a tool under Modify -> Split Entities.
Great news, when will QCAD 3 be released?

How do I divide a line into equal length sub lines?

Hi

I would like to divide a line to give me equal lengths of line, e.g. I have a line that I wish to divide into 5 equal length lines.

How do I do that?

I downloaded pro, it sits unpacked at the moment in my download folder. I thought it a good idea to remove the free Qcad version first. I tried to do this from the Ubuntu Software Centre and it failed.

Do I need to remove the free version first?

Hi Andrew I have now got Qcad to be a usable productive tool for my research work diagrams. I would like to make a contribution and I guess the best way would be to purchase the licenced version which looks like an annual subscription. I'm running Ubuntu and will be upgrading soon to Natty. If I pur...

Thanks Andrew, I've now drawn an arc, added a leader (with a very short lead) and it does the job quite nicely. I've also made a block out of it for future use. Thank you for your advice.

Kind Regards

Curves (splines) cannot have an arrow at the end in QCAD. Please draw a short leader (see Dimension - Leader) at the end. Leaders can be so short that the leader itself is not visible, only the arrow. Thanks Andrew. I think I may have found an alternative. Unicode characters 27F2 and 27F3 do the jo...
