Hi everyone,
My name is Tony. I live on the East Coast of the US.
Professionally, I am an Architectural Engineer and I work primarily in research, design, and development (mostly Microsoft Excel and Matlab tools). I am an experienced drafter but up to this point have only used AutoCAD from Autodesk.
I need drafting software for a personal project I want to do so I purchased QCAD a few minutes ago--this means I am a super noob but learning quickly.
Are there active people on the forums that help with script writing? One of the major things I hope to do in QCAD is build a script that will help me export polyline node coordinates to an excel spreadsheet or CSV file (and later perhaps one that can do it for all polylines on a layer). I'd also like it to include a custom identifier number (ID) that I define myself.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Tony and welcome to the QCAD forum.
This script dumps all vertices of selected polylines to the command line history of QCAD:

This might be a good starting point. Please post any additional questions about scripting to the developer forum at:
