## Wires & Connections
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Q: My wires aren't connecting properly
|
### Q: My wires aren't connecting properly
|
||||||
A: *Tips for debugging wire connection problems*
|
|
||||||
|
**A:** Common issues:
|
||||||
|
1. **Not clicking on terminal** — Click directly on the small dot (terminal), not near it
|
||||||
|
2. **Broken connection** — Delete wire, reconnect to correct terminal
|
||||||
|
3. **Crossing wires without connecting** — Crossing wires don't join; must connect at terminal
|
||||||
|
4. **Element has no terminals** — Check element type; not all symbols can connect
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Solution:**
|
||||||
|
- Select wire with Selection tool
|
||||||
|
- Right-click → Delete
|
||||||
|
- Redraw, clicking precisely on terminals
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Q: Can I edit wire paths?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**A:** Yes!
|
||||||
|
1. **Select wire** (click on it)
|
||||||
|
2. **Drag waypoints** to adjust routing
|
||||||
|
3. **Right-click waypoint** to remove it
|
||||||
|
4. **Add waypoint** by clicking on wire with Wire tool
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Q: What does a crossed wire mean in QET?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**A:** By default, crossing wires **do NOT connect**. They're just visual crosses for complex diagrams. Explicit terminal connections are required.

### Q: QET is running slowly with my large project
|
||||||
A: See the **[User Manual](user_manual)** Performance section.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Q: I accidentally deleted something. How do I undo?
|
**A:** Tips to improve performance:
|
||||||
A: Press Ctrl+Z (or Cmd+Z on macOS) to undo. You can undo multiple steps.
|
1. **Reduce zoom level** if viewing entire diagram
|
||||||
|
2. **Disable grid display** (View → Grid)
|
||||||
|
3. **Close unused panels** (View → Panels)
|
||||||
|
4. **Split into multiple folios** if diagram is very large (100+ elements)
|
||||||
|
5. **Turn off selection handles** when not editing
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Q: My file won't open in a newer/older version of QET
|
For very large projects (1000+ elements), performance may be limited.
|
||||||
A: *Compatibility issues and migration instructions*
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Q: Where are project files stored?
|
### Q: My file won't open
|
||||||
A: QET files are saved wherever you choose. Look in your Documents folder or the last location you used.
|
|
||||||
|
**A:** Try:
|
||||||
|
1. **Check file location** — Ensure .qet file exists and is readable
|
||||||
|
2. **Verify permissions** — File should be readable/writable
|

### Q: QET won't start
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**A:** Try:
|
||||||
|
1. **Reinstall:** Remove and reinstall QElectroTech
|
||||||
|
2. **Check logs:** Look for error messages on startup
|
||||||
|
3. **Disable plugins:** If crash on startup, plugins may be issue
|
||||||
|
4. **Clear cache:** Remove ~/.qelectrotech/ (Linux) or AppData (Windows)
|
||||||
|
5. **Update Qt:** Ensure Qt libraries are current

## File Compatibility
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Q: Can I open QET files from older versions?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**A:** Yes! QET maintains backward compatibility:
|
||||||
|
- Older .qet files open in newer versions
|
||||||
|
- Some formatting may change with UI updates
|
||||||
|
- Features added in newer versions won't be present in older files
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Best practice:** Keep files in current QET format.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Q: What about files from different QET versions?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**A:** Generally compatible, but:
|
||||||
|
- Files made in v0.100 should open in v0.100+
|
||||||
|
- Files from v0.9 work in v0.100
|
||||||
|
- Very old files (v0.6 and earlier) may have compatibility issues
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

### Wire Tool Basics
|
### Understanding Conductors
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*Selecting the wire tool and drawing connections*
|
A **conductor** is an electrical connection between elements (the wires/lines).

||||||
|
|
||||||
### Wire Modes
|
**Types:**
|
||||||
|
- **Single-line** — Simplified representation
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
*Common issues and solutions*
|
### Common Issues
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Performance
|
**"Element won't connect to wire"**
|
||||||
|
- Click directly on terminal (small dot)
|
||||||
|
- Not all points on element are connectable
|
||||||
|
- Check element properties for terminal definitions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*Optimizing large diagrams and reducing file size*
|
**"Wires crossing without connecting"**
|
||||||
|
- Wires only connect at terminals
|
||||||
|
- Crossing lines don't automatically join
|
||||||
|
- Use explicit connection at terminal points
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Compatibility
|
**"Diagram is slow/laggy"**
|
||||||
|
- Large projects with many elements slow responsiveness
|
||||||
|
- Reduce zoom level to improve performance
|
||||||
|
- Disable grid display if not needed
|
||||||
|
- Close unnecessary panels
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*Opening files from different QET versions*
|
**"File won't open"**
|
||||||
|
- Corrupted file or compatibility issue
|
||||||
### Importing
|
- Try opening in text editor to check XML validity
|
||||||
|
- Restore from backup if available
|
||||||
*Importing from other diagram tools*
