G'day from WA

Sam Wilson

Hi all, new LibreCAD user here from Western Australia, very excited to have found this project! :-)

I'm interested in helping with the wiki documentation, and have registered (as [[User:Sam Wilson]]) but so far am not permitted to make any edits because of the spam blocker. I keep getting

The text you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a link to a blacklisted external site.

The following text is what triggered our spam filter: http://akismet.com blacklist error

Even though I haven't been trying to do anything except fix a couple of typos (certainly no external links). Any ideas?

Also, what is the plan for the user manual(s) on the wiki? One per version, from the looks of it, and the pages with no version number in the title are for the latest work?

As for drawing, I'm going pretty slowly so far, but was thinking of writing something on the wiki about using construction lines (i.e. 'help' layers) in the initial stages of a drawing. My background is paper-based technical drawing, so that's how I approach CAD... probably not how the pros do it! hehe

Anyway, hi again, and thanks for making some brilliant software.

—Sam.

P.S. My fellow sandgropers will have to excuse the cliche in this post's subject!

Thanks! We need more help on wiki.

this error message seems to be genuine. do you have akismet in your message, somehow?

We use akismet for spam filtering.

Can you try again? I changed a setting

No, same problem I'm afraid. I tried just adding an apostrophe (no external links).
