500k+ file trasher

 Hello.

 I have been using librecad and qcad for 6 years now.
 I always used the stable version.
 But the other day I stared to use the bleeding edge up grades
on my ubuntu like machine which realy runs mint linux.
 But now i have three dfx files that librecad dose not display right.
 These file are the only file over 500k. two file show nothing but line
that emanating form center points and go to the edge
of the screen.
 These file work correctly when i use the demo qcad from ribbon soft.
 The other dfx files on my system seem to be working correctly.

Hi keghn

Unfortunatelt I am not a programmer, moreover I did not understand what kind of drawing you have done.
I can suggest to post your files here, I'll try to open them in order to check if it's a problem of your PC or it is a problem with the version, secondly, (as I repeat, I did not understand what kind of drawings you made) try to explodeeverything.
I am using librecad and I did works of about 3 and 5 Mb...

Best regards my friend!

Hi Keghn

Try the dxf files in version 2007 with LibreCAD.

Hi keghn,

After you have opened the file click in "autozoom"
If the file remains wrong you can add the file in this thread and I can see why it does not work and fix it.

If you can not (or will not) put it publicly send it to me privately so I can see where it fails, I promise to delete it once the problem is solved

 Autozoom did not work.
 i notice another bug, I can select more than one snap to be on at the same time. When
two or more snaps a selected none of the snap will not work to connecting lines.
 To get a snap to work I select the one I want and make sure all of the other snaps are off.

 Another bug I noticed is when I select:

Show Toolbar "Dimensions" -> Angular Dimension

 I can get this to work with inside angles but the larger outside angle will not be displayed.
 These two last bugs effect all my files.

  Thanks for the help everyone.

 I had to get some work done so I went back to the stable version.
 I turned off the update manager and uninstalled librecad. And then
reinstaled with with my package manager. Everything is back to what it was.

Snap is not a bug is a new feature:

Draw a line, then select snap middle and endpoint, move the pointer, cursor are snapped to the most near point (end or middle of the line)

Draw a line, then select snap middle, endpoint & free, if you move the pointer near of a end point are snapped,  if you move the pointer near of middle point are snapped, if none are near then a no snap are used.

Example: add dimmensions
select snap endpoint & free, select dimension->linear
First extension point: move near first endpoint since the pointer are snapped
Second extension point: move near second endpoint since the pointer are snapped
Dimension location: clik in screen, not needed to uncheck endpoint snap

You can add a example file and/or screen capture to show wath is the problem?
