Re: Do you always need to restart QCAD to test scripts?

Does -always-load-scripts (still) not work for you?

New Features in Qt 5.9

Down close to the bottom of this page https://wiki.qt.io/New_Features_in_Qt_5.9 I read, that Qt Script is considered for removal in subsequent releases of Qt. Is it time to lobby for reconsidering?

Re: Bitmap Speicherort ...

Hi Husky, verknüpfen statt einbetten, wie das in andren Programmen heißt, hat Vor- wie Nachteile: ad 1) QCad kann scheints nur verknüpfen, nicht einbetten; der Vorteil ist, Änderungen an verknüpften Daten erscheinen ohne weiteres Zutun in der Sammlung, der Nachteil ist: es ist ganz allein Deine Aufg...

Re: Qcad 3.16.3 can't run on Ubuntu server 16.04

Hello Andrew, the style="" flag here does not help from reaching out to GTK, when DISPLAY is not set; while setting QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE="" does. (Also -style="asdf" works!) Your are right, that the tools should not set platform, all the fonts are gone then! PS: From strace I learned, that qcad-bin loo...

Re: Qcad 3.16.4 can't run on headless Ubuntu 16.04

Hello Andrew, setting DISPLAY="" is the quickest way to test how it works on a headless system. I intend to do this so I took the time to make it run and some magic tools lead the way - This is the expanded command 3) from above with ltrace added: DISPLAY="" LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/qcad" ltrace -CS -f...

Re: Qcad 3.16.3 can't run on Ubuntu server 16.04

On my Xubuntu 16.04 I get this - run with 1) display, 2) without display, 3) without display offscreen; only 1) creates a PDF: $ /opt/qcad/dwg2pdf MY.dxf QCAD version 3.16.4 ...

Re: Leader Line -Arrow Placement

Autodesk documentation says, arrowhead is a boolean attribute. I thought, you would just have do "modify, reverse", but "R V" does not work on leaders, should it? A workaround is to "F H, F V" mirror twice.

Re: printing to Gravograph LS100Ex laser cutter

Looking at the product page, the system seems tightly vertically integrated, that is, no talk about interoperabilty, but promoting its own software instead. You seem to have a (third party?) application that can use some (first party?) driver to its full capacity, unlike any other windows applicatio...

Re: Opening Files with umlauts under Linux

Hello there, No problem at all with diacritics &c on this system here with qcad 3.15.2, even on fat-formatted drives. "locale" output below, nationality or currency seems to matter not much; Unicode is what system installers for some years now default to, admins who disable stock features are to kno...

Re: Python or Lua for scripting QCAD?

Its the chat forum, so here to my take: ECMA-Script is not a bad choice. It looks like C yet is so much more expressive. People starting to code can use acquired skills on the web and many other places. There are lots of free tutorials, references and code samples. ECMA-Script sure is not the hammer...

In your script, put the expression "debugger;" to force a breakpoint; run QCAD from a terminal with the argument "-enable-script-debugger" or create a desktop shortcut with that, when on MS-windows.

Re: how to set the size of view

I guess I got it: Its about the initial zoom. Attached screen-shot of what I get; Unit is mm, so display is larger than life. I always have to zoom out first, because my stuff usually is around 1m big. As I always print scaled, font-size is 24mm.
