Latest QCad "freezes" on tooltip

Post by peter76 » Sat Dec 12, 2015 10:03 am

QCad pro version 3.12.4 64bit OSX 10.9.5 .

Hello, I just downloaded the latest Qcad and noticed that when I hover with my mouse over an icon in one of the toolbars and a tooltip appears, my cursor in the drawing, or anywhere els is not responding, until the tooltip disappears or I click.
Does anybody else have this problem, and should I report this as a bug, or is it just me?

Regards, Peter

The same here (QCAD 3.12.4 64bit OS X El Capitan 10.11.2).
I mentioned it in the german forum section (viewtopic.php?f=89&t=3868).
When a tooltip is shown nothing else happens until I click somewhere.

This is a Qt 5 thing. You'd have to install the 32bit version (Qt 4) to get the old behavior back.

Hi Andrew,

I just downloaded Qcad 3.12.4.2 ( alpha ) and this doesn't have the problem!
I keep the 32 bit version around just to be sure. but thanks!
Good luck sorting out the bugs:-)

Peter
