Hello,

since 3.17.1 (also on 3.17.2.0) it's impossible to insert "@" in commandline, so it's impossible to work with relative coordinates in all funktions like rectangle, line etc.
Please do a fast Bugfix, I need that functionality for workflow urgently :-)

Regards

I cannot reproduce this here.

Please provide more information:
- Is this QCAD Professional or QCAD Community Edition (downloaded from our site) or a self-compiled binary of QCAD?
- What happens if you try to enter an @ sign anywhere else in the application?

Thanks.

It's community edition from PPA neomilium/qcad-devel.

On "save as" dialog I can insert @. Think only on command line it's impossible...

Sounds like a non-US keyboard is being used and some Qt 5 plugin is missing to deal with this. You might want to have a look at the QCAD trial version to find out what plugins are required and where to put them.
