Hi, New to LibreCAD here but long time CAD user for various drawing/drafting tasks.
This package is looking really great ! I am so excited to have found this. Thanks so much to the community. I am wondering if there is a list of commands somewhere that the command line accepts... For instance, I try to type zoom to open up the various zoom-tools but that doesn't do it. Maybe the commands are different or maybe I can dig around in the src repo and find a list somewhere if it works like that. This is awesome! Thanks for the great package! Cheers, jb ps. I am currently running with the most recent (RC1) windows release candidate on a vista system. -j |
Found it in the source repo.. Awesome!

Hi, I'm new to LibreCAD as well. I had used AutoCAD and IntelliCAD in the past.
I not having too much trouble finding commands via the menu, toolbars etc., but just how do you implement a command on a given selection? e.g., I want to mirror two lines. I select "mirror" toolbar button, and select the two lines (I've also tried reversing the order of these two operations). Then what? I right-click (as in ACAD or Intelli), nothing happens. How do I tell it I'm done selecting? How do I tell it what the mirror line is? Same with moving or copying. How do I tell it I'm done selecting objects, and ready to specify a place to move/copy to? |

Here is a small screencast how to mirror objects:
Move/copy works much like the same. Regards, Ries van Twisk

Aha! so that little green double-arrow button is the key to the next step.
Thanks! |

Thanks for screencast, but doesn't seem to help me because you are selecting objects (circles in your example).
What I want to do is select a group of lines, choose a mirror line and ..... Mirror. Can't fathom out why Librecad won't let me do what I used to do in Qcad. Would appreciate some help on this. Also, why is there no Delete Segment command in the Modify menu? Regards, Ray |
