  1. LibreCAD latest CI builds now includes corresponding startup splash image according to version you are launching.

    Also, old basic "About" dialog now replaced with a new one, which includes a splash image too (that is too large, really).

    So, I proposed to use a half of a splash image as a banner image in a new "About" dialog, and diverse its look for ALPHA, BETA, RC and RELEASE releases: github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/i

  2. N.B. Line-based grid is a new feature (default grid is dot-based). To reset LibreCAD grid:

    In "Application Preferences > Appearance" set:
    Background: Black
    Grid Color: Gray
    Metagrid Color: #404040

    In "Current Drawing Preferences" set:
    [check] Show Grid
    [uncheck] Extend axis lines
    Grid type: Points

    For comparison, as LibreCAD originally is a fork of QCAD Community Edition, here is a screenshot with its actual default grids (point-based main grid with line-based metagrid).

  3. I use the Professional version of the #OpenSource #QCAD #CAD software, which is amazing 🌈🦄

    The free version is fine for #GardenDesign.
    qcad.org/en/qcad-downloads-tri

    The Professional version has more features & is only £40. This is £2,610 cheaper than the industry standard #Vectorworks 😳
    qcad.org/en/online-shop

    There is also a really thorough #QCAD book as well:

  9. LibreCAD, being a fork of QCAD 2.0.5 Community Edition, for a long time had only a Points-based Grid.

    Now there are settings to fully customize the Grid look:
    1) with Points type its possible to set Metagrid to Continious line type (or other).
    2) with Lines type its possible to fully customize both, main Grid and Metagrid line types.

    Also, its possible to customize the look of Axis Lines and extend them infinitely.

  14. For :inkscape: #Inkscape experts: I have a #dwg file with a scheme that I'd like to edit in Inkscape.

    What's best flow to (well) #convert this dwg file ( ufile.io/xobr6g02 ) to #svg ?

    I tried with #Qcad exporting in #dxf, #svg etc etc, but I lose a lot of information.

    Otherwise If I import the file in inkscape from pdf (that's here ufile.io/74qjzogc ), then it become very very slow, nearly impossible to edit.

    Maybe it's there a method to "simplify" the #pdf imported?

  15. Did you know that if you export Grease Pencil objects to SVG with camera-relative clipping, using an orthographic camera that matches the render's aspect ratio, and then edit the SVG file by swapping the units from "px" to "mm," you end up with an SVG that has spot-on measurements?
    For example, an A3 (420x297), render at 4200x2970, orthographic camera scale = 4.2 #b3d #Blender3d #Blender #inkscape #CAD #QCAD

  16. soo, vielleicht kennt sich ja hier auch wer aus:
    ich suche nach einem
    #CAD Programm für #Metall - #Stahlbau, ähnlich #Inventor, #ProSteel oder #Tenardo... nur halt gerne als #OpenSource oder Kaufmodell wie #Qcad...

    (Qcad habe ich sehr gerne für ihr 2D-CAD Programm mit Geld beworfen, sehr Faire Preisvorstellung!)

  21. A metal sheets work with #Plasticity3D, unfolding and 2D generation with #FreeCAD, the annoying task, was the making of DXFs layout of all parts with #QCAD. Also Moi3D was used with complex 3D for 2D generation of assembly. rendering with #b3d, QCAD has some issues in the dimensions, the saved file differ from original. and dimension are wrong, I have to re-edit each time.

  23. #FreeCAD under developments, has continuos improvements and I really like what was and is done, specially my preferred part is the new Tech Draw improvements, now it is much faster and cleaner, with it you can generate nice drawing and export it as #DXF or #SVG, for me the ability to export in DXF is fantastic so I can edit drawings with #QCAD or other 2D #CAD editor. #fc3d github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bun

  24. Hallelujah! AutoCAD's DWG is a closed format that Linux CAD apps can't properly read. Well, there's apparently now a freeware Linux utility, ODA File Converter, that allows you to convert from DWG to DXF. Get the .appimage from here: opendesign.com/guestfiles/oda_

    LibreCAD and other Linux apps I tested can now read these common files fine as DXF! A great solution for my brother too, who I recently converted to Linux too.

  27. Si preannuncia un pomeriggio stimolante, con la seconda parte del corso di progettazione #elettronica con #softwareLibero, a cura di Lapo Pieri, presso la biblioteca di #Scandicci.

    Oggi il tema sarà la simulazione circuitale, le logiche programmabili con #FreeHDL, concludendo con un po' di meccanica con #QCAD e #FreeCAD.

    Il #sapereLibero vi aspetta alle 16:00 in via Roma 38a.
