Yes, launching from the context menu works pretty well.
Thank you.

I took a look at snapshot 3.25.2.1 on macOS.
The change records speak of "Draw> Spline > Append Fit Point (s)".
When I try to attach a new fit point to a "spline with fit points" using the new tool, the tool stops responding and I cannot attach anything to anything.
What did I misunderstand?

... or use the Move Tool (MV).
with it you can also select the start or end point and still move the entire line.
This can e.g. be important when 2 lines are to be connected without changing the length or orientation of the shifted line.

Drag the line by clicking on the line NOT near start or endpoint..

In the past, working on a drawing board, you would have made an auxiliary circle from the top of the roof and then extend the edge of the roof to the point of intersection with the circle (hold the SHIFT key in QCAD). The auxiliary circle is then deleted again. Simple geometry that always works.

I've added a second for-do-loop in the script:

for file in *.dwg
do
/Applications/QCAD-Pro.app/Contents/Resources/dwg2pdf -a -p A4 -f "$file"
done

With this dwg are also converted to pdf.

Thanks again.
After some troubleshooting, I got the script to work.
I got stuck at your "./alldxf2pdf.sh".
It should read: "alldxf2pdf.sh".

Many Thanks. The procedure works for me if I set the path manually in the terminal (cd) and then enter the program loop you mentioned ("for i = ...") in the terminal window. So far so good. Then I tried to create an executable shell script ("#! / Bin / sh" and "chmod 755" filename ") according to in...

QCAD 3.25.2 is running on my iMac with macOS Catalina (10.15.7).

I would like to convert all dxf in a folder to pdf via batch or script. How do I have to proceed under macOS?
Please step-by-step, as my Unix and script knowledge is only rudimentary.

The question is how do you come from black to blue without drawing the lines again.
Other software like Microsoft Visio Pro has a built in routing tool (routing connections). Dragging and moving the valve redraws the lines automatically.
QCAD hasn't such a functionality.

I'm afraid there are very limited options for this in QCAD. The only way I know and that I use for such cases is the "Stretch Tool (SS).

In CAD filling with a solid hatch to cover lines doesn't make sense.
The better way is to trim the lines (see tool D2)

Vielen Dank für die Rückmeldung, dass es bei mir alleine nicht so "komisch" funktioniert. Ich kann deine Argumentation nachvollziehen aber nicht teilen. Versuche doch einmal in dem beigefügten Beispiel den Text im Model_Space auch im Paper_Space erscheinen zu lassen. Die meisten würden wohl den Auss...

macOS 10.15.4, QCAD 3.24.3 Ich habe folgendes Problem: Wenn ich ein um einen beliebigen Winkel (außer 0°) gedrehtes Ansichtsfenster im Paperspace platziert habe und dann im Paperspace den Inhalt (!!!) des Ansichtsfensters verschieben möchte (Verschieben des oberen der beiden Referenzpunkte mit der M...
