1) commands do not work if the program interface language is selected other than English, while English is selected for entering commands 2) it must be done so that when pointing at objects, their visibility changes as in QCAD 3) it is not clear what Revertxdirection does, it does not work even on callout lines with an arrow (Leader) 4) it is impossible to cut a spline line or split into sections 5) the text is not compatible with qcad, it does not display normally turns into crabs when opening a file created in qcad 6) plugins either don't work. Only one works for creating gear

Better to make a single ticket per issue

dxli commented 1 year ago

The gear plugin was not of high coding quality.

I am still trying to balance:

1, code quality; 2, solid algorithms; 3, new feature, if the change is maintainable; 4, long term bugs, even if at cost of refactoring, but low risk of regression by a judgement call; 5, code modernization to avoid nonstandard code

I think it's duplicated by #1892?

it must be done so that when pointing at objects, their visibility changes as in QCAD

This is supported in 2.2.2 alpha

it is not clear what Revertxdirection does, it does not work even on callout lines with an arrow (Leader)

Well, it changes direction of entity (swaps start and end endpoints).

But - additional support for Leader may be worth to add.

it is impossible to cut a spline line or split into sections

need separate issue for this

the text is not compatible with qcad, it does not display normally turns into crabs when opening a file created in qcad

Hm... the question is actually where (in LC or QC) the text is stored properly. Needs additional investigation.

plugins either don't work. Only one works for creating gear

Well, plugins indeed should be revised... some of them seems to be obsolete now
