Dear All/Developers

I am pleased that I found QET for the MacOS and I like it. So far so good.

Between my regular job, I am drawing/converting several old hand drawn and printouts of electrical schemes using QET. The originals are not available anymore, but the schematics are needed for quality control documentation and insurance.

Doing this, I notice some, ’short comings?’, that can make designing more streamlined; at least for me. Maybe a discussion worthy?

Rotation of a selection
When I select a group of items and want to rotate the whole selection now it rotates each element or item individual; what I like to request is that when I want to rotate the selection that it rotates the whole selection as one item.


Creating groups
I like the user collection, and would love to create a group of element and shapes ( together ) and save them in the user selection for reuse. Now I have a separate project with some ‘groups’ that I can copy and paste, but having them under user collection would be great


Project Tab’s shortening question/request
Maybe already in there but not discovered yet, but could it be there a preferences item thats toggle the ‘Project Tab’ file name to a short version; like just only the Project Name instead of a Project Name + the complete filepath. Then when hoovering over the Project tab it shows the complete path and with CTRL click on the Tab it shows like the ‘Finder’ the path as an submenu.


Moving elements and shapes using the keyboard arrows
Not sure if it is a bug, but when having a element selected using the keyboard arrows it moves the folio but not the element; not expected.


Conductors
Creating my own conductors with color and text and have them stored globally.
I would love to have the possibility that I can choose in the “edit conductor’ dialog my own wire/conductor and apply to the selected conductor.

Moving the wire icon anywhere along the conductor line
When having the conductor line some times the wire icon is ar the wrong place obscuring other elements or shapes. Is this possible to move that wire icon anywhere along the line? See image

Thank you for reading.

Thank you for the info.

I did copy the drawing to a new folio; but the behaviour is then different then with the first page and original page.
Maybe worth to check that out too.

Thank you

Good morning

I did notice this yesterday after updating to version 0.100; I am trying to say, "I didn't notice this before version 0.100"

Why the extra space?
Is there somewhere a hidden element outside the drawing space? Both have the same size.

QET 0.1 ??????

Try this:


I meant to have the latest the 0.100 version.

Any suggestions to get this to work?

Dear all,

Just playing around with QET; as you can see I want to connect a cable symbol to wires, but when I hoover over the cable symbol there is no dot appearing to connect with. How come?

Dear all,

I want to print a folio, and so far so good; however I can't get the layout button getting to work.
The printers are visible and I can print so that works.
As the picture shows I am using MacOS.

Any suggestions?
