Can you add your heeks file to this fault.  When I add this text using English
settings, it presents alright.  I was wondering if you were entering the text 
using
something other than ASCII character sequences.

I recently fixed a problem that made the arc elements fall in the wrong place 
once
the text was converted to a sketch but I don't think that's what you're 
reporting.

See the attached file for my version of this example.

I'm also on Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 but I'm running the Intel processor.  I doubt 
that
will cause this difficulty.  I was wondering if your settings use the comma (,)
character as a decimal point in a floating point number.  The QCAD files have
floating point numbers separated by comma characters.  I was wondering if the
difference will be in our locale settings.

I don't know how to change my local computer's settings to test this theory and 
I
would be a little nervous to do so as I don't want to frustrate my other tasks.

If you do use the comma as the decimal point, please let me know.  I will look 
into
the routines that read the font definition files to make sure they're reading
correctly.  Perhaps I could compile a copy of HeeksCAD that has some extra 
debugging
in it to display the values read in from the font definition file.

It's just an idea.

The text.heeks file you attached displayed correctly on my machine with no 
changes. 
I will attach a screenshot of it.  That's why I began wondering about the locale
settings.

Thanks
David Nicholls

Thanks i think that is the case  its a German Thing!
also all CNC fail if i import from stl error is float there are comma instet of 
dot

so for overcomming this problem shoudent there be a function that cheks the 
comma or
point in the value bevore giving that to the float 
for example in post.py -< the file witch generates this shoudt care of the 
problem

I believe I have fixed this problem.  I reversed the logic regarding the 
conversion
of dots to commas and the graphics I produced (attached) looked like your 
original
graphics.

This leads me to wonder whether the Excellon and RS274X files generated by 
KiCAD will
have the same problem.  The sample files I have here use commas as field 
separators
and dots as decimal points.  If KiCAD generates this same format when the locale
settings are reversed then it will exhibit the same fault.

Do you use KiCAD by any chance?  If so, do the RS274X files generated by it 
import
correctly into Heeks for you?  I may need to apply the same type of fix for 
that code
too.
