QCAD.org Forum

hello everyone,

I am currently testing QCAD version 3.27 command line tool dwg2svg. I want to convert dwg files into svg vector graphics to display them in the browser. This works great.

However, I would like to be able to make adjustments to the svg. An example: the text which is also vectorized should be clickable. But after the conversion the text-path has no more information about the text it represents. Is there a possibility to set in the conversion that the text is taken over as an id attribute?

I am looking forward to an answer. Thanks

Hi,
Not sure, never used it, but have you tried all dwg2svg options?

Thinking of -preserve-geometry or -no-text-transforms ...
Maybe the bridge is too wide, text options in QCAD are limited compared to SVG.

One can always file a feature request at bugtracker.

-preserve-geometry will give you text entities in the SVG output. The drawback is that the rendering is not guaranteed to be identical in SVG as it is in QCAD.
