Soften/Smouth Edges

Post by syroezhkin »

Hello! I'm going to use FreeCAD Cmd for some external stuff. Precisely speaking I'd like to send .stl files in FreeCADCmd, make 2D views from the shape and finally export this views to .dxf. Almost everything works perfectly, except one thing... Of course curved surfaces divides by segments beсouse the .stl format is actually the mesh object. Does any methods (mayby those that aren't in the GUI) wich allows to delete this soften edges before exporting to .dxf file? For example SketchUp has Soften/Smouth Edges tool, that hides edges depending of the angle between closest faces. Does FreeCAD Python API has the ability like this? Or Open CASCADE?
