how to check the object size for coordinate X and Y

Wondering how to using libre cad to check the dimension size or coordinate of X And Y  values of the object, which draw using by other software such as autocad etc which save as DXF format, inorder to make sure the object size exactly the same when open with libre cad.  TQ your's help is much appreciate.

You can use snap mode and the main menu info

coordinates and distance are shown

hi  dxli,
is there any tutorial or steps to show how to uses the snap mode .

There's no user manual for LibreCAD yet.

We rely on our users to build wiki for LibreCAD, and eventually, a user manual based on wiki.

We rely on our users on translation, docs, part library, screenshots, etc.

Please start at,

1. Example -to find the coordinates of the lower left hand corner of a rectangle and the dimension length of the bottom horizontal line.









You could now of course specify the second point and your dimension length will show in the command line window.





Hope this helps.

Clive,

our "Features" page on librecad.org needs a rewrite. It's better to list CAD features with pretty screenshots.

If you can help here, Ries can give access to the content management system which is easy to use.

thanks,

OK - I can have a look at the features page but as you say Ries will need to give me access rights to the content management system.

I agree it would be better to list LibreCAD`s features with accompanying screen shots!

I`ll leave it with you Ries/dxli.
