2.2.1 finalization

It's probably time to wrap up 2.2.1, since no new serious issues has been reported recently.

Snap support is there, but we need to register to push to the official snap pool.

Please help test the latest release candidate builds at GitHub
https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/releases/tag/2.2.1_rc-latest

Also, please append anything you would like to add the release note here.

Thanks, dxli. The  Layer Tree is a nice surprise for organizing projects.

If LibreCAD adds a midpoint grip for arcs and also for polyline curves, it will be more intuitive to stretch.

Issue 1864 is still not really fixed: https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/issues/1864
At least in the Linux appimage, despite claiming dxli to have pushed a commit which referenced this issue.
But #1922 is about rendering performance...

In the new break/divide tool, when I have deleted the snap indicator lines in the librecad preferences, they appear when using the new break/divide tool.
I think it could be a small bug that is easy to solve.

Thank you very much for your effort in developing librecad, at this rate of progress it will soon be a truly professional tool.

Sorry, I just tested on 2.2.1 rc3-50 and it seems to work correctly.
Thank you so much

The Layer Tree option would be more organized with layers free from alphabetical order.

I am using a translator.

Hello,

Although I have not used this very good tool for 2D technical drawing for some months now, I have seen the post and I want to share my point of view.
It is true that there may not be serious issues, however, when I used the application I found some unwanted behaviors, which when solved could improve the user experience.

Here is a brief list:

1. https://forum.librecad.org/LibreCAD-unexpected-behavior-td5725111.html#a5725297

i. The Trim tool improved, however, it still does not work correctly on the right side of the upper semicircle, see video https://forum.librecad.org/file/n5725297/trim_random.mp4.

ii. The Lengthen tool still does the opposite “shorten”, see video https://forum.librecad.org/file/n5725297/lengthen_tool.mp4.

2. https://forum.librecad.org/Ellipse-trim-and-gap-td5725049.html#a5725109
The visual aspect improved a lot, however, still in the cutting part you can see a minimal flaw, which is not present in version 2.2.0, nor in version 2.2.2 alpha.

3. https://forum.librecad.org/Tab-mode-td5725084.html
There are still problems here.

4. https://forum.librecad.org/LibreCAD-dockwidgets-td5724838.html
It improved a lot, however it is still present.

5. https://forum.librecad.org/LibreCAD-wishlist-td5724981.html
Wishlist, is it possible to select more than one toolbars or dockwidgets simultaneously?

Thank you very much for making LibreCAD better every day.

Best regards.

What is the maximum drawing size for LibreCAD 2.2.1?

We do not have a uniform way, unfortunately.

Due to some local tolerance checks:

Absolutely drawing limitations: 10^9 x 10^9
Expected to have trouble: 10^6 x 10^6
The above troubles meaning to maintain precision at 1x1

Output size, pixel size limitation by qt, 32767 x 32767

I am sure we have other limitations as well, so better documentation needed.
