I have been using the LibreCAD 2.2.0 rc2 Big Sur package on Big Sur. I will have to check the other machines to see which packages I used on the other machines because logically the LibraCAD 2.2.0 rc2 package would have been used but I can't be certain that that was the case.

The fact that I am drawing lines on LibreCAD indicates that I have indeed got the Big Sur package running on Big Sur. I would agree that generally it runs well.

The reports that I have read indicate that the problems with the other package weren't that the application was crashing or freezing but that the application wasn't launching. The launch process didn't go to completion. Since I read you last posting I have tried launching that package  and that is what I find also.

I used the packages from Sourceforge. I didn't build the application from source code.

The fact that no one else has reported the problem with the parallel function doesn't especially surprise me. It is evident that LibreCAD doesn't have a lot of Macintosh users; not all Macintosh users have upgraded to Big Sur; and even LibreCAD users do use LibreCAD on Big Sur may not have tried to use the Parallel lines function. The fact that only one other person besides yourself has replied to my postings on this issue, and that that person didn't reply as a Mac user, suggests that no other Mac users running Big Sur have checked to see whether they can reproduce the problem.
