2.0.0rc1 (modified package) - contains no Hatch patterns

Hello dear devs

In the latest 2.0.0rc1 (modified ) windows installer files there are no hatch patterns included and when you make your own hatch patterns - it doesn't work/show in the hatch dialog window.

Thanks, we will fix this.

The 2.0.0rc1 is there for us to test our building scripts. We will release 2.0.0rc1 after the test is satisfactory.

Okay dxli, so it is good that I tested it - yes ?

Is the scripts easy to learn my friend ?

Hi,

The scripts is very simple, actually, myself is not really a windows developer, so feel free to help here.

Simply follow this wiki to start, and help us by improving the script, README by sending in pull request.

Thanks,

Maybe you miss-understand me here? I am asking if the coding/writing scripts is easy to learn how to do - you see I'm not a developer just a user...but if I can learn I can try...but where do I learn about starting.

For me if I was to help I would be an absolute beginner, so is it possible to start learning from the beginning or is it too much to learn?

What do you say my friend is it worth starting out?

Just read the script, and you can understand what it's doing quickly:

https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/blob/master/scripts/build-windows.bat

The link doesn't allow me to see anything do I need to register first to this?

Ok I got it

Like I say I am not a developer so I do not understand it -sorry

but... like I say how do beginners start....or maybe this is too advanced!!

What we need is a 'LibreCAD' coding school

I will handle this issue and give you a note when it should be OK

OK, I think it should work now with commit
https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/commit/915601f1e7cba06e7bc7698f19ed9457f97137f7

Before using the build-windows.bat open Qt Creator, open LibreCAD Project and open the Projects view.
In the tab Build Settings select the Release configuration and disable the Shadow build checkbox.
This is the most important step, because in Shadow build mode the context for the project files and the postprocess-win.bat is wrong.
Save the LibreCAD project and continue running the build-windows.bat.

When everything is OK, you will find the LibreCAD-Installer.exe in the LibreCAD folder generated.

I've added a build-win-setup.bat, in case the LibreCAD Release is build in Qt Creator.
After the Release is build, open a cmd window, goto the librecad/scripts folder and run the build-win-setup.bat.
The LibreCAD-Installer.exe will be placed in the librecad/generated folder.

Please leave a comment if the changes work, I will then update the wiki.

Hi, this is working fine now, nice job.

I'm pleased to hear that.

Thanks for reporting and testing.
