Hi Phil, I haven't used Qcad in a while but playing about with it now the only way I can get it to create a 'fault' in the horizontal but not the vertical is to access the dimension tool through the left hand side bar and try to create dimensions from there. If I have the horizontal dimension box highlighted I will only get horizontal dimensions, if vertical only vertical dimensions. Any attempt to get a measurement on the wrong setting gets me a '0' value.Ian, that is what I have been trying to do, works ok, doing the verticals, but is being very temperamental trying to do the horizontal dimensions. Next time, I have a go, I will try and get a screen shot.
Thanks all.
