Adding text to measurements by default
Win10Pro64, Qcad 3.27.6. I know that if I set a measurement label to <>", I will get the numerical dimension automatically, with " after the number. But I've been doing it manually for all of my dimensions. Is there are way to have Qcad default to that?
Re: Adding text to measurements by default
wendi,
I think not.
One could enter a feature request for a user defined suffix similar as the dimension prefix.

But that is also one of the few QCAD options that isn't stored persistent.
Although 'Prefix' and 'Text' are reserved keys in the QCAD.ini/config under the header [Dimension].
They don't seem to be updated ...
One could filter out all dims with the Selection Filter and adapt all in one go.

Hi wendi,
You may set the dimension label settings to Architectural. Drawing Unit needs then to be Inch. Will that work for you?

Hi CVH. Thanks for the info. I do update them in groups, from time to time.
Hi Husky. Inches won't work for me. Thanks for the idea.

Sorry that I misunderstood your question. I was sure you were asking expliziet for inches after the number ...
