QCAD/CAM 3.25.0

Post by John Hyslop » Fri Aug 21, 2020 6:31 am

Hi Andrew

I can't believe the amount of effort you put into this software, it's absolutely brilliant!!
1st Update on the list:
Property Editor:
Show total area of mixed selection of polylines, arcs and circles
I did a job 3 days ago for a client it had to be 50 to 60% open area, I had to select the entities write down there area
select all, do a count, multiply by number of entities , and after several attempts I finally got close to what I wanted.

Now I have the option of selecting all and getting the total area... what a time saver.. Many thanks ;-)
From a very happy user..

Hi Andrew

I'm just trying out the new features and for the life of me I can't figure out how to mirror text?
I'm using arial standard text and when I mirror it, it doesn't change?

Found it...Defaults for new drawings\text... :oops:

Cheers
John

Yes, it's a drawing specific preference (MIRRTEXT coming from DXF/DWG).
