Hi,
I am looking for an alternative to AutoCAD. In ACAD, I created a toolbar with certain buttons to perform regular and specific tasks, using VBA.
Is this possible here in QCad? If Yes, then links to some tutorials/blogs would greatly help me.
Windows 10

Re: My Own toolbar with some buttons
Hi, and welcome to the QCAD forum
Under QCAD we script in ECMAScript aka JavaScript.
One can add menu's, toolbars, custom methods and so on, the limit is only your imagination.
But I can spare you the trouble because the learning curve is quite steep.
Andrew has provided in 2 custom toolbars a while ago.
#EDIT# ... for QCAD Pro ...
Go to menu Edit .. Application Preferences .. General .. Tool Settings
For each existent tool one can tick to include it in User tool bar 1 or 2.
One can also exclude them from other toolbars and menus.
One can change the associated shortcuts and commands, but I wouldn't advise to do that because of possible conflicts.
Now go to menu View .. Toolbars & Widgets .. Toolbars
And select the user toolbar you want to display.
That should display the custom toolbar with all the tools you have activated for it.
