I'm very new, about one day, into LibreCad, trying to make a simple drawing with two hexagrams with circles at their vertices. I started experimentally by drawing a tiny circle, whose radius I don't know where to find, but it's very small on screen. When I click Print Preview, no matter what size circle I draw, it always shows filling the whole breadth of the page.

Why is this happening, and what can I do? Also, is their no way I can show page borders in the drawing screen, so I can position my drawing elements?

  • It seems LibreCad print preview scales automatically the dimensions. You can check one time the fix checkbox on the preview page and then, after further modifications, it will remain fixed. So the workaround is to draw a rectangle with the size you prefer for your page, then to go to the preview page, fix it, save the file and start to work. Search on google for some tutorial.
