What version of QElectroTech do you use?
Add screenshots of settings and grid to your next post.

I use Debian GNU/Linux trixie/sid and most recent QET-version from repository and also tried last binary from QET-download-site for windows this morning:
On both systems:
Changing grid-point-size works perfectly!

Maybe another user can share his/her experience with changing grid-points, too?

some settings changed in forum: can only attach one file per post...
Here the same view with setting: 5px
note: there are some optical artifacts because of zoom-factor

Salut Laurent !

Thanks for your hint, but: Was already installed.

$ dpkg -l | grep pkg-config
ii  pkg-config:amd64   1.8.1-4  amd64  manage compile and link flags for libraries (transitional package)
$

Package will be replaced in (near) future:

$ apt-cache search pkg-config
pkgconf-bin - Verwaltung der Compiler- und Linker-Schalter für Bibliotheken (Programm
pkg-config - Verwaltung der Compiler- und Linker-Schalter für Bibliotheken (Übergangspaket)
pkgconf - Verwaltung der Compiler- und Linker-Schalter für Bibliotheken
$

In the meantime I could manage to compile QET-Sources, with the help of Qt-Creator:
I adjusted the settings for make-command in build-settings.
It feels a bit strange, as there is a message with an exclamation-mark that says that the build will be overwritten and the text in edit-field for build-dir is marked red...
But it compiles and I could already solve some more of the "#if QT_VERSION < QT_VERSION_CHECK(6, 0, 0)" - things!

There is something basic missing ...

What version of QElectroTech do you use?
"menu" -> "Help" -> "About QElectroTech" -> tab "Version"

It seems, you're a new user of QElectroTech:
You should use this (or newer) version to have some additional info in log-file:
https://download.qelectrotech.org/qet/b … 5-02-17-1/

Now to the plugin:

Did you download the exe-file of plugin as suggested from github?
https://github.com/raulroda/qet_tb_gene … aster/dist

Did you rename the exe-file of plugin to "qet_tb_generator.exe"?

Did you copy the exe-file of plugin to "AppDataLocation"\binary\qet_tb_generator.exe ?

What does the log-file say about "App Data Location"?
"menu" -> "Help" -> "About QElectroTech" -> tab "Log"

What does the log-file say about "qet_tb_generator not found: ..." and "qet_tb_generator found here: ..."
after loading a project and clicking on "menu" -> "Project" -> "Launch the terminal block creation plugin"?
"menu" -> "Help" -> "About QElectroTech" -> tab "Log"

Please answer ALL questions!

I wonder what is Qt5- or Qt6-specific about this line?
If I understand correctly, the linked elements are passed there ... they are also needed when compiling with Qt6.

Found a solution for changing grid-dot-size in general config-page that is saved in settings.
Implemented and published today.

If you delete the post with the problem description, nobody will be able to understand what it was all about!
Nobody can find it in the forum search!

Hello Vadoola,

no problem for me: Already deleted my fork!

Hello eya,

If the file-browser of converter shows the file, it should be found by other file-browsers, too...

What version of QElectroTech do you use?

Version 0.9 is a bit outdated in the meantime ... I recommend 0.100-dev

And it is very recommendet to use dxf2elmt instead of something else!

In current versions of QET there is a menu-entry in Element-editor to import a dxf with dxf2elmt.
Then you don't have to handle converted files, but can work with QET alone.

Vadoola, the current author of dxf2elmt, released new sources today.
I guess you run win? In the attachment you find the compiled binary.

Hello elevatormind,
Salut Laurent ,

seems I forgot to test something with selective_move ...

But let me ask! What do you want to achieve with this line:

event->modifiers() == Qt::ControlModifier ? setPos(new_pos) : setPos(Diagram::snapToGrid(new_pos));

If you mean to check for additionally pressed <Ctrl> the line would have to look like this:

event->modifiers() == (Qt::ControlModifier | Qt::ShiftModifier) ? setPos(new_pos) : setPos(Diagram::snapToGrid(new_pos));

If you mean to reduce step-size for movement of texts by additionally pressing <Ctrl>: It does not work!
Together with <Shift>+<Ctrl>+<MouseClickAndMove> the view of design-editor is moved!

As a thought:
When I want to move the texts it is mostly only some points. Why don't we just forget about moving texts by grid-distance, but only move by points?
Then we would not need any additional modifier.

Then we would need to change the above line 588 of sources/qetgraphicsitem/dynamicelementtextitem.cpp by only this:

setPos(new_pos);

I tried some different combinations of modifiers, but it seems that we run out of possible combinations at that point...

Best regards

Stalefiles are automatic Backup-files during runtime of QET.

Why do you want to delete the stalefile by hand? Maybe an "old" QET-Version?
see this post:
https://qelectrotech.org/forum/viewtopi … 869#p20869

In both cases the stalefiles are handled by QET:
When I press "Cancel" the files are deleted instantly and when I click "OK" the backup-files are used by QET and deleted, when closed.
