Feet and Inches in the Property Editor

Post by BobRockefeller » Fri Mar 06, 2020 1:47 pm

The QCAD-PRO snapshot for macOS 10.15 (3.24.2.7) has implemented the display of feet and inches in the Property Editor. This is a welcome addition for me when I'm working in Imperial architectural drawings.

The display of a 40' line is currently shown as '480,' the correct number of inches, which is the base unit of the drawing.

Even more useful, for me, would be a display of 40', or even 40' 0", in that display. Is that coming in a future snapshot?

But a 4' 2 ½" line displays as 50.5 in the Property Editor. Much less useful.

Do I have a preference to update somewhere?

That's a misunderstanding. It has been implemented for the next snapshot release. That would be 3.24.2.8.
