Hello..
I have question how to update drawing after editing component.
This is my situation:
A had to create one big PLC.
Now I see that some text/pins should be on different places. So I try to edit them.

In schematic I do right click on component and select "edit the element" and in popup window I select "general" tab and click on "edit element"
Now I edit element and save them.
But in schematics the element is not updated. I need to do that manualy and I lost all wires doing that. How to avoid that?

running ubuntu 14.04 and
[size=4]QElectroTech V 0.60-RC2+svn4992
Compilation: GCC 4.8.4 - built with Qt 5.2.1 - run with Qt 5.2.1
p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }

Hello...

After long time I update qelectrotech from 5.0 to rev 6. (ubuntu 14.04)
But got into trouble. When I start and select full screen the menu bar dissapear.
So I can't acess menu but other things seems to work. How I can got back from full screen?
If I start quelectrotech in terminal there are some error:


void DBusMenuExporterPrivate::addAction(QAction*, int): Already tracking action "&Close" under id 25



I can't use it now and can't downgraded to version 5.0 as some dependencies are not meet?

Please help.

p.s.
running ubuntu 14.04 and has dual monitor.

... actulay the best could be custom grid setting.

well currently is not possible for me nomicons/smile

Hello...
I know that I can change element size.
But I need to draw cabinet to estimate required size. So the component should be of right size and in my case stacked together without gap. But seems that this is not possible with QET.

Hello...
Maybe there is missunderstanding what I want...
Just see example drawing...

Thanks

Hello...
I updated to next stable version. (ppa) Now was v0.4-rc2+svn3624
But grid spacing is same no mater how I set diagram property.
As default I have 18x60 pixel/16x80pixel and I changed to 36x60pixel/32x80 pixel. I got bigger workspace but grid is stil on 10mm. (no change) so I try with 36x30pixel/32x40pixel and got original size workbench but the grid is still 10mm

...about translation I have no idea how much work is to do, and tools needed...

Hmmm....
there seems to be none of settings for scale! Only column/row X nn pixel.
..runing QET v0.4-dev+svn3309 compiled on sept 15 2014, on ubuntu 14.04

...hate to use two different cad programs to draw same product...

Hello...
Is it possible to move (place) component out of the grid?
As if component is not 10mm wide I cannot stack more of them without gap.
As I have 13 three phase fuses and each is 53.1mm wide I can stack them only to 60mm space so in each fuse I have 6.9mm free space on drawing and accumulated over 13 fuses the space come near 90mm wide.

Hello...

I just draw simple ruller as component. So it's in same dimension as all other regards of zoom.

Hello...
I tried to draw some components (mor or less just blocks with dimensions) and seems to work. If I draw cabinet too then I can try to fit all elements to see if I have enought place. But can't do any measurment (actualy I just need to check if component's fit to cabinet.)
About google translate... I use that when I need it. But As my english is far from perfect then translating from english to french (to ask question) may be so bad and question missunderstanding.
So if there is no english forum, and posting english question in french forum is ok then I have no problem...

Hello...
I try Qelectrotech and seems nice software.
I like to draw cabinet too, to perform how the elements will fit.
But when I put some elements in sheet I can't find a way to measure dimensions?
As the project is new the size of cabinet will be choosen to fit elements in.
I'am miss something?

..and another question? Is this forum in French only?!? I can't find english or other languages. And I'm in doubt that software is used by french people only.
