Hi guys

Ubuntuser
Hi guys.
I'm a new user trying to switch from Autodesk.
I'm Brazilian graduate student and professor (Technical Drawing, btw).

I'm using Ubuntu (of course) and got a little trouble to understand the logic of LibreCAD.

When I click on user manual, I got an error saying it's not possible to locate file on my system.
Where can i find the User manual?

I would like to join translation group. How do I enter that?

Sorry if I should post this in another thread.

Thanks.
Bob

Re: Hi guys

Yep.

I had already downloaded. But it seems a second part of something.
Is there a Dummy guide, where I can find about the interface and some more basic usage, including a command reference?
I know how to draw a circle, for instance, but I can't figure out how to control its dimensions. When I'm drawing it, there is no parameter field nor any mention on command line. On status bar there is "specify radius", but no field and no command line. Typing doesn't work.
If I type "circle" and hit enter the program start to make a circle (OK), but there are no indication of what I'm typing in command line.
Once more I'm using Linux Ubuntu.
I don't know if this happens everywhere.

Thanks.

Oh yeah.
Got it!
Found on Wiki!
It would be great a PDF version, but is much better now.

Thanks.

The label command line is not really "the command line", it is only the outputs.
To get the real "command line" I must hit "Ctrl+M". That's strange.

You should be able to just hit the 'space bar' in 2.0.0 beta 1!
