hi,

block features are improved in LibreCAD-2.0 series, you may choose to build from source or try ubuntu PPA, the same deb file should be valid on debian.

clearly, it's not a good way to enable user write access for /usr/share/librecad/

you can set library path to a place under your home direction by:

main menu: Edit -> Application Preferences -> Paths -> Part Library

Hello,
I see this thread has been going for some time but also that the last post is not too old so hopefully I'll be OK adding to it now.

Like people above, I wish I could find some way to copy a selection of one or more entities from one drawing to another.

I've tried the method suggested by Claus82, but when I try to save the file in .../misc, I get the message:

Cannot save the file
/usr/share/librecad/library/misc/TwoCircles.dxf
Please check the permissions.

I know about Linux file permissions but I don't understand why it should be a problem in files I've installed or created myself

I'm using LC version 1 on Debian 7.0 (stable) Thanks for any help...
