Problem with labels on rulers
Posted: Mon Jun 18, 2018 3:28 am
Hello --
I've been using QCAD for several years now; it is a wonderful product.
My problem is with labels that disappear on the ruler bars.
Hardware: new Surface Book 2 with Surface Pen
Operating system: Windows 10; all operating system updates are current
QCAD: fresh install of 3.20.1.0
Examples use drawing unit = centimeter
Problem 1: Labels on horizontal and vertical rulers are at 40 drawing units, instead of at 5 or 10 units depending on zoom level. Problem 2: After zooming just a little bit from the preceding example, the labels on rulers completely disappear. The extra arrow heads on the rulers show the last position active on the touch screen.
I've done a fresh install on the identical QCAD version on a Windows 7 computer and checked everything I could think of in both Application preferences and Drawing preferences. The labels don't have these problems on Windows 7.
What do I need to configure? Or might there be a bug active in Windows 10? Reading in the Forum, similar issues happened back in 2014 (sorry I don't have the log number of that discussion, but there the problem was in trying to use feet and inches.)
Thanks for your help --
Carol
