Function Width, Length for polyline amd rectancles

Post by romy » Sun Jan 21, 2024 4:57 pm

Hello. I am an absolute beginner. I'm looking for a function where I can enter the length of a polyline or, for example, the height of a rectangle. It doesn't show up for me like it does on the interface of this tutorial (see appendix). Thank you for your help.

Hi, and welcome to the QCAD forum.

There is not really a method to actually set the length of a polyline.

For the required tool in the image see:
Menu Draw .. Shape .. Rectangle with Size (RS)

RS is the keyboard shortcut.
Simply hit the 'R' key briefly followed by the 'S' key.
See: https://www.ribbonsoft.com/archives/sho ... uts_en.pdf

Regards,
CVH
