[babaroga]

Hello,
I am experimenting with qt4 and qt5 build of FreeCAD and having one issue with qt5 build.


Qt4 build shows dimensions OK.

But qt5 version show zeros on all dimension lines

If I make drawing in qt5 version and open it in qt4 version all dimensions are visible (normal).
Is it only me?

What are your preference settings for "use Global decimals", "show Units", "alt decimals"?

I will try to rebuild Pyside2 and FreeCADto see if it helps.

I did a quick test and i get correct dimension values on Qt 5.

Those settings work here.

But I did notice something. Your locale is set to "Locale: English/UnitedStates (en_US)", but the Font Size field in your screen grab shows "4,0" which would be something other than US practice. There have been issues in the past when the decimal separator is a comma when a dot is expected or vice versa. I'm not exactly sure how/where choice of dot/comma is specified (os?) but it would be interesting to see what happens if you can get your Font Size to read "4.0".

There must be somethng wrong in what I am doing.

Different computer, same version of Ubuntu, different version of Qt5. I rebuilt Pyside2 and FreeCAD but result is the same.

I even changed locale to match "," as decimal separator, but result is the same.

This question is offtopic, but do you know some guide about building FreeCAD against Qt5?

[wandererfan]

I can duplicate your results if I set my locale to "Locale: Bosnian/BosniaAndHerzegowina (bs_BA)" and separator = ",".

Also with French(Canadian) and ",". But if I use bs_BA and American format numbers,

the dimensions look fine.

Don't know why yet.

I have rebuilt Pyside2 and FreeCAD and got same behavior.

But, when I turn on "Use global decimals" in preferences and refresh page, dimension numbers are back, only with fixed number of decimal places.

Note, I still have comma as decimal separator.
