Re: Problem with symmetry

Yes, that's the "problem" with FreeCAD: a lot of stuff out there (tutorials, YouTube videos, even our wiki) get obsolete fast! But it's quite a nice problem to have. :) I've been thinking that the wiki tutorials should be labeled as to what version of FreeCAD they were made for/with. Of c...

Re: Pad with any Angle

Maybe that will come after tools to define workplanes and reference axis has been implemented.
