[solved] When using dwgmapconvert with retain-texts some texts are missing

Post by manelclos » Mon May 16, 2022 12:07 pm

Hi,

I'm using this command:

/Applications/QCAD-Pro.app/Contents/Resources/dwgmapconvert -segment-length=0.5 -crs-in=EPSG:25831 -crs-out=EPSG:3857 -f -retain-texts -o file_epsg3857.dwg file_epsg25831.dwg

When comparing the file with the previous version without using "-retain-texts", I can see some texts are missing.

QCAD version 3.27.1
MacOS version 11.6.5

Any help appreciated,

Thanks!

Thanks.

I can confirm that text attributes are lost in conversion.
