![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Linear - distance between two points from any angle of interest, default is 0 (horizontal) and is changed via Properties. Generally LibreCAD shows the green line half width of the white ones, but because of the drawing dimensions in relation to line thickness you could see this only in a very high zoom level. LibreCAD includes the following dimensions: Basic examples of dimension types (not necessarily representative of ideal drawing conventions) Aligned - parallel to a line between two points. I have to do more investigations on this later. Auto zoom: to fit your drawing into your screen. See: CADConcepts: Scale and Viewing Corner toolbar Previous view: to come back to your previous view. Minimize: minimize window of current drawing. So I can narrow down the problem to interpretation of line thickness values in DXF files. Restore down: to restore the windows of all open drawings into the screen. The DXF reference tells me that this value is an enumeration value, so there may be an other table or variable for the real value of the thickness. In the DXF file is stored 25 and 50 for line thickness, but without units. I found no information on the fly for interpreting the line thickness. When I change the base unit to Millimeter in the drawing preferences, I can see that the green line thickness is half of the white line in an earlier zoom level. In relation to the drawing size of 420" x 297", what is 10668mm x 7543.8mm, you have to zoom in very deeply to see the line thickness grow. When I open the DXF in LibreCAD, the line thickness for the white layer is 0.50mm and for the green layer 0.25mm. But then the green line, with 25mm or about 1 Inch looks too thin there. This may match with your first screen shot. The line thickness you wrote is 50mm, that is round about 2 Inch. The distance between the green and white line is 5 units, that is 5 Inch. Voila, the original drawing magically appears in the new units. Escape to end the import block operation. Place the block at the new drawing origin. Import the original drawing that has units in, say, inches, as a block. Are you drawing in Millimeter in an Inch based system? There are two ways to define line width: directly when drawing by selecting in the pen tab, or if in the pen tab 'by layer' is set, via layer attributes. Create a new drawing in the units you want, for example: mm. The base unit of the DXF file is Inch, the drawing size is 420x297 units, that is DIN A3 size in Millimeter. You may open an account on our site or our forum, there you can upload DXF files with bug ticket or thread post.Īnyway, I could download and open your DXF file, but there is some confusion. ![]()
