F5 not working in Windows 10?

To redraw I should be able to use the F5 button.

However, in Windows10 this is not working.

Using the F5 button opens the search screen (Start typing to find apps,... ....).

Redrawing should be triggered auto.

Wondering why a button is desirable.

It's not so stupid as you seem to think it is. Often one wants to see what's the effect of some things he did do in a drawing. Often, too. some remainings are left, and the redraw option is nice, because you get a cleaned-up drawing. Apart from that, if a funtion is implemented it is ment to be working the way it should

What version are you using?

Please give an example of when the redraw feature is needed.

Note that the system's F5 on Windows 7 is "Refresh the active window".
That means there was a change in behavior in Windows 10.

It looks like the Windows build server is still using Qt 5.4.1;
the major updates for supporting Windows 10 are in 5.5 and 5.6

I did download the installer 2.0.9.exe.

The Qt-version is 5.4.1.

Version 5.5. and/or 5.6 I did not find.

When using the Redraw-option in the menu all is OK. Just the F5 option does not work.

Yes I'm saying the server needs to be updated to use Qt 5.6

This is a Qt + Windows 10 issue
not a LibreCAD issue.

Anyhow... redrawing is supposed to happen automatically.
Please provide an example of when you need to use this.

OK, so we wait for an update of the server.

I do not have at hand, at the moment, an example, but from the past (working with Autocad, but being

an amateur) i do remember that very often a drawing showed some leftovers which I cleaned up with the redraw

fuction. I'm not sure (it's quite I while since) but Autocad does have an easy keyboard command, something

like Ctr + R, for that.

Apart from thaat, if yhe software is offering the F5-option for a manually triggered redraw, this option should

work, or be removerd.
