Most often, if it was a linked object or resided within some container object, pressing the "Broken View" button resulted in an error message saying that a break object couldn't be found within the selection. Yeah, App::Link needs lots of special handling to get the right object/shape/loc...

Great! Thank you.

Just to clarify, your results are all for the "red" tools, correct? Must get around to merging a few tools some day.

The case in the example file should be fixed by 1b39f6f3d9 . There were changes to view parenting recently and this might have been a side effect. Dimension, Balloons and now Leaders should be ok, but there may be issues with other things that can be a child of another view (RichAnno comes to mind,...

It doesn't help you on v21, but DrawViewPart.getVisibleVertexes() and DrawViewPart.getHiddenVertexes() are available in main branch after git commit 5ed00d52dc.

If somebody has time on their hands, and can compile from source, I could use some testing help. I have a branch (https://github.com/WandererFan/FreeCAD/tree/CosmeticReview4) that contains improvements to the scaling and rotating of cosmetic vertices and edges. It also contains changes to leader poi...

I would also loke to find out why he first method I tried didn't work. The code for dimensions in a detail view was broken. It was computing the dimension points as if they were to go on the base view, not the detail. Should be fixed in main branch after 96cfd6b3dc . Sewing Machine Case_mwe_dim3d.p...

While you are waiting for getVisibleVertexes(), you could try this: vertices = list() edges = view.getVisibleEdges() for item in edges: vertices.append(item.firstVertex().Point) vertices.append(item.lastVertex().Point) uniqueVerts = list() for v in vertices: if v not in uniqueVerts: uniqueVerts.app...

Dimensioning should be improved by git commit 41bce2eaf4.

You are missing the sleep() between recompute() and find_vertices().
