Perpendicular Snap Not Working
Posted: Thu Nov 08, 2018 11:53 pm
I'm getting some really bizarre results with perpendicular snap. Some of the time it works fine, but with certain lines it chooses an arbitrary and random angle as "perpendicular". See the picture:
I have auto snap on, with perpendicular snap enabled in application preferences. I'm running Qcad Pro version 3.21.3 on OS X 10.13.6. This is one of several DWG files that I got from an architect running Archicad. I'm having this trouble on at least one of the other files.
Is there some setting I'm not aware of, or is this just a bug?
Lines A and B were already drawn, I dragged the ends to the "perpendicular" snap points along D and this is what I got. I made the line C as a test, and it oriented correctly. I tried to make both A and B perpendicular to C, and it didn't give me a snap point anywhere along C for either line. I moved the end of C off of D, then couldn't find the perpendicular snap point again. I have auto snap on, with perpendicular snap enabled in application preferences.
