Re: Very Strange Behavior - Corrupt DXF?
Hi,
I'm out of town why I can't check your dxf. Nevertheless knowing where the dxf came from I assume it has still 3D ballast. Try below Menu . Misc .. Modify .. Flatten Drawing to 2D and test the behaviour again.

Re: Calculate curve to make two curved panel fit together
Means what exactly? Metal? Wood? Styrofoam? Stripes welded / clued together for each of the 8 sites? What is the thickness of the material? Final shape? A real curve or a semi "curve" built out of straight segments?franksbedford wrote: ↑Sat Mar 23, 2024 10:00 amI want the CNC cut panels to line up in a straight line.

Re: '.dxf Dateien nicht erkannt
Muss das so sein? Oder kann man da was ändern? Ja und ja. Offentsichtlich wurde das so von MS aus performance Gründen als default eingeplant. MS selber und auch Drittanbieter bieten aber Ergänzung Programme an die dxf/dwg Vorschau möglich machen. Wie gesagt - es wird zu Lasten der Performance gehen...

Re: Included circle inside triangle
I tried using the circle three tangents tool, but I end up with two large circles outside the pitch line, or it failing to solve. Surely there is a method to create the included circle inside a triangle? Am I not using the correct tool? If the tool was this one ... https://qcad.org/doc/qcad/latest/...

Hi,
The purpose of the toolmatrix is to launch with the mouse pointer tools immididly - not to help you remembering and then using shortcuts.

Hi, I'm trying to draw an arc 16" wide and 9" high. It's the opening to a brick oven where the height is 1" taller than the radius of the width. It is easier to build a brick oven opening with a radius instead of an ellipse. If you want an arc with this measurments then you have to extend tangential...
