Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Linux CAD

Hi guy;

Ever thought of writing a qcad manual? I'd be interested in the rational behind
pop up windows that may/may not contain anything dealing with the function you
want, have two or six totally unrelated functions included, and no sensible way
to choose between them. Also of interest, would be the required sequence for
making those multi-layer buttons work properly. Defining them would be a good
start. After that, explaining why they usually don't seem to do the same thing
from one time to the next, even though the sequence used is the same. They
occaissionally work, sometimes partially work, and usually don't. It _does_
seem to be a nicely thought out control interface, but the problem is making it
do _anything_. Then there's that stupid, "page", that allways comes up on
startup. Surely my doodlings could clutter up the screen better than that.

Sorry about the rant, but I'm finding qcad to be much less than desired.
