Hi there,
Still very new to CAD and while working on a drawing I must have done *something* (no idea what) that made the drawing colours fade to near invisible + cannot select or edit anything.
Any idea what i have screwed up or even better, how to recover the drawing?
Debian Buster (10.11), QCad Pro 3.26.4.0

Re: Cannot edit drawing
You're editing a block in-place. In the options toolbar at the top, click "Cancel".
If you find this rather confusing, better make sure to disable inline-block editing on double-click by unchecking:
Edit > Application Preferences > Graphics View > Behaviour > Edit block reference in-place
