Hi all I am attempting to align this drawing at anew scale / paper.
Got the scale and paper changed.
entered print preview
then I try select all
cut with reference cntrl + shift + X
drawing disappears as expected
then
Cntrl + C to paste
click snap free
now nothing program seems frozen
am I missing something?
Posting a stripped down version of the file, the original has many more layers and 2 bitmaps, but this one still has the problem
Thanks for any advice!

Re: How do I align my drawing with different paper?
When I try your method it seems to work fine for me. I'm running QCAD 3.26.1 on Win10 Pro.
Re: How do I align my drawing with different paper?
Hmmm thats interesting thanks for trying so fast!
I am on 3.23 using Gentoo Linux.
So I started qcad from the cmd line so i could see errors and there are some new ones:
11:14:51: Debug: dropped global XDATA (no res buf): "ViewportCenter"

Re: How do I align my drawing with different paper?
Hi,
may I ask you a question?
To rotate the drawing - maybe ...
Please elaborate the goal of those steps. Thanks.

So far so good but what is the goal for the next steps?
To change the scale - I don't think so.

Hi Husky, thanks
when I changed the scale the drawing no longer shows up in the same place.
I can post the original if you want.
Thanks

You can move the Paper position in Print Preview. Would that solve the issue?

Re: How do I align my drawing with different paper?
Well golly that worked,
Thanks!
I knew it must be something simple I was missing.
I have always cut and pasted the entire drawing.
Still not sure why cut and paste did not work this time, perhaps drawing too big?
The hand fixes it, problem solved.
Thank you for Qcad!
