[solved] Quadrants and measurements

Post by Solo318i » Fri Apr 16, 2021 3:24 pm

OK this is probably really easy. When I installed Qcad on my laptop it doesn't display the cursor location on the bottom of the screen. I didn't even know this was an option until i installed it on my desktop computer. I did nothing different with either install. So my question is, how do I get it on my laptop as well. this makes fine measurements way easier.

The first thing to make sure of is that your status bar is visible. View>Status Bar (GS)

If you still don't see the coordinates, try going to Edit>Application Preferences>Widgets>Status Bar and make sure everything is checked that you want to see on your status bar.
