Hello, I am using qcad pro. I'm pretty new to cad. i used an older version of auto cad about 20 some years ago. Don't remember much. I'm just trying to figure out how to soften the corners on a rectangle. if there is a qcad for dummies book out there I would love to know how to find a copy.

To round corners, you can use:
Modify > Round
https://qcad.org/doc/qcad/latest/refere ... c/RoundPro
Note that the rectangle tools also have a radius option:
Draw > Shape > Rectangle
https://qcad.org/doc/qcad/latest/refere ... ectanglePP
-> see "shape options"
The QCAD book / e-book is available from our online shop at:
