![]() ![]() , since some items referenced there appear different than in my 2.1.3 version of LibreCad, which is a further difficulty for me. Also, I get the impression that my menu is different than that specified in the documentation at If you look at displaying a full D Size drawing in a PDF Viewer on your screen you are probably zoomed out to 25 of full size. I presume these kind of issues are covered in the documentation, but I apparently don't have the right vocabulary to search for the things I need there. I'm not much of an icon person, but when I hovered over various icons, I still did not seem to find what I needed.Īlso, in a possibly related matter, is there a way to specify on the command line what I am accustomed to calling "relative coordinates?" That is, I might like to specify the first point of a line by clicking on an origin point, and then specifying the next point as (say) "down and to the right" with the coordinates -20,10. I presume I had some problem with the grid snap setting, so I was looking at an item in the online user's manual that said "Select snap from the top menu then select snap on grid." I hoped to change some snap setting, but there was no word "snap" on my top menu (version 2.1.3), so I was at a lost of where to go. When I try to enter the second corner in the command line, as (say) 10,10 I get a rectangle, but not a square and not one with a corner up and to the right from where I started. Here's one problem: In trying to draw (say) a rectangle using the menu, I left click on the drawing to specify the first corner, and then move the cursor up and to the right and left click to indicate the second corner, but what I get is a horizontal line, not a rectangle. My previous experience in CAD was with the old Draft Choice program, so I'm presuming I have some holdover misconceptions. Also most drawing projects use a landscape orientation so that’s why we pick landscape. This setting will allow printing from a home computer. Click Landscape and pull down the size menu and scroll to select letter. I'm (obviously) new to LibreCad, so I have some basic misunderstandings in drawing simple objects with which I need help. Here you can change paper size and also paper orientation. Hello tesco, On 19:05, tesco via LibreCAD wrote: > Hi, > It has been about 7 years since I last used autocad.
