Re: 'Update template field' ?

Is anyone using it and if yes for what exactly? I don't know who uses this. There have been requests to fill the title block from the document information as far back as I can remember ( 5903 . There is this tool, the add-on "TitleBlock WB" and Tomas' implementation of the "freecad:a...

Should be fixed by git commit 10b9229492.

Note that cosmetic actions are not in general "undo-able" as they are not document objects.

Sure. Just needs somebody to find all the places that can set a direction and add the code.

Re: TechDraw - 3D aligned projection

Wouldn't it be good to add a feature that automatically corrects such extremely low (numerically zero) projection direction coordinates to zeros ? Those tiny misalignments are often causing serious troubles. There is code in v0.22 that does this when asking coin for the camera orientation. It chops...

Re: TechDraw - 3D aligned projection

I don't get the same result on the reference file. From your picture, the number of vertices looks like CoarseView is true, but your sample view is not using CoarseView. One thing to check is the projection direction (or section normal in this case). In transferring directions from the 3d view to p...

Re: Add cosmetic line through 2 points - deselectable radio buttons

What's the use-case to select either one, both or none of the 2d/3d Point buttons? There is a flaw in the UI. The 2d/3d buttons for each point are supposed to be mutually exclusive (and I suppose the choice of button should show or hide the Z field). The 2d point would be one taken directly from th...

Re: Orientation Vertical/Horizontal uses “Aligned” in function “Add Centerline Between 2 Points”

The centerline is created perpendicular to a line connecting the 2 points through the midpoint of the line. Forcing the line to be vertical or horizontal does not make sense here.

I don't know why your task panel has such small text. Are other dialogs affected?

For the dimension with the small text, I would guess that something has happened to your preferences in user.cfg, but I don't know what would cause an uncommanded change like this.

Re: Github Issue re ClipGroup

Not sure that "dictatorially" fits here. There was an issue created, a forum post and a PR. Lots of opportunity for comment. There are three commands related to clip groups - make a clipgroup, add a view, remove a view. The PR removes the last two in favour of drag in and drag out. Some a...
