Hello, I am working with qcad version 3.16 and looking at the pdf documantation on page 34 dealing with layers. Unfortunately the process of using layers per the documentation and the qcad program doesn't match. I for one can't get the layer list to show. Per the documentation you can key in "YA" an...

A suggestion I have is perhaps a online tutorial on how to get started with Qcad. Perhaps a You Tube video on how to start drawing a part using Qcad. Might already have been done but if not a good idea. I for one haven't done and drafting in decades and it was always on paper.

Thanks!

I can see the scroll bars regardless if "Show scrollbars" is checked or not. In either case the grid spacing value is not shown.

The Operating system is OpenSuSE and the version is 12.2. As for maintenance is is kept relatively current - within a week or so.

Show scroll bars is checked. I unchecked it, clicked apply, then OK, and nothing. I then rechecked it, clicked apply, then OK, and still nothing. Even tried shutting down Qcad between and that didn't help either.

A beginner to Qcadd 3 and am following the An introduction to CAD. Looking at page 35 it say to "check the bottom corner of the drawing area to make sure the grid is currently shown with a spacing..." There is no such display. What option do I set to get this to show?
