It sounds like what we are doing (scripts calling into C++ plugin) is the correct way. Yes, that is certainly the recommended way. I think the clients motivation is confidentiality of the proprietary code. It is relatively easily possible to compile all scripts as resources into a C++ plugin. You c...

Hier ein kleines Beispiel (startet das Programm 'myapp' mit argument 'myfile.dat'): // application binary: var program = "myapp"; // arguments: var args = [ "myfile.dat" ]; // additional environment variables: var environment = [ ["MYENVVAR", 1] ]; var process = new QProcess(); // error handling: pr...

Implementing GUI actions in C++ is currently not recommended. All menus in QCAD are implemented as scripts at the top level (GUI action, menu, tool buttons, etc). If a tool requires complex or CPU intensive algorithms, these could be implemented in a C++ plugin which is then called from the script. ...

You can find a simple tutorial for a tool that draws three points where the user clicks at:
http://www.qcad.org/doc/qcad/latest/dev ... _tool.html

More examples are included with QCAD in your QCAD installation directory under:
scripts/Misc/Examples

You can override the value / label of dimensions in the property editor (property "Label").

Zu beachten gibt es noch, dass diese Idee (Darstellungsreihenfolge nach Layern) grundsätzlich nicht aufgeht sobald Blöcke verwendet werden. Eine Blockreferenz ist ein Objekt und als solches auf einem Layer. Alle Objekte in der Blockreferenz (Linien, Bögen, etc.) sind ebenfalls auf individuellen Laye...

Ja, diese Einstellung findet sich unter:

Von einem QCAD Benutzer:

Kann man die Schriftgrösse in der Statuszeile des Hauptfensters vergrößern?

Only "Flip Block vertically" keeps the 0° Angle orientation. That means this is a bug? No. Flip vertically in your example would strictly speaking produce a text that is mirrored (not correctly readable from any angle). QCAD never produces text that is mirrored. I.e. the text is always readable cor...

I can now reproduce the problem. It only occurs under Windows and seems to be related to the position of the drawing. I'm currently checking if this might be related to the Qt version used for the Windows version. As a workaround you can move the whole drawing close to 0/0 (e.g. Cut with reference, ...

Danke für die Datei. Ich konnte das Problem hier bisher nicht nachvollziehen. Können Sie bitte Ihre QCAD Versionsnummer nochmals überprüfen (oben ist v3.6.3.0 angegeben). Bitte versuchen Sie auch, den Export wie folgt durchzuführen: - Datei > Druckvorschau - Zoom in bis Details gut sichtbar sind - D...

No. Depending on the application they originate from, you might be able to export them as DXF or convert them to DXF.

What must I do that I can import DXF und bmp files. To merge a DXF file into an existing drawing, you can either: - Use the library browser (View > Library Browser), typically used to insert symbols and other small ready-made parts - Open both drawings and use copy / paste to copy one drawing into ...

Coordinate entry through the command line is indeed covered in chapter 7, "Coordinates". Please pay also attention to the section "Notes for Advanced Users".
