Re: Move sketch to include point in perpendicular sketch

Actually selecting the point and "Map sketch to face" works correctly. The text might need to be changed though, this is a bit cryptic this way.

Move sketch to include point in perpendicular sketch

Hi! To make a sweep I need to create two sketches. The route / line and the cross section. How do I move the cross section to the end of the route sketch? I would need to be able to select a point in the route sketch and be able to say move the cross section sketch origin to that point, but i don't ...

Ticket #4319: Segfault removing edge from sketch

Probably something to do with the chamfering of the edge of the inner circle. Repro: 1. Open Sketch "Sketch" within "Pad" 2. Delete inner circle 3. Segfault occurs. Reproduces on FreeCAD_0.19-20514-Linux-Conda_glibc2.12-x86_64.AppImage OS: Ubuntu 19.04 (ubuntu:GNOME/ubuntu) Word ...

Menu distorted on MAC external display

Hi, The menu icons seem to be too large when pulling FreeCAD from a MBP retina to an external monitor running on 1920x1080. It might have something to do with my main monitor being HighDPI, and the external monitor not being HighDPI? OS: macOS Mojave (10.14) Word size of OS: 64-bit Word size of Free...

Re: Can I Increase the Text and Point Size of Restraints?

Just that it's unreadably small, and I have pretty good eyes... The text is about 1mm high on my MBP retina, and the constaints are even smaller. It seems like the constraint text size can be changed (but it requires a freecad restart, although it doesn't say that it needs it) using Pref -> Sketcher...

Re: Parametric constraint can be changed only one way for fully constrained sketch

The unexpected behaviour to me was getting a drawing from @openBrian, and then trying to figure out why i can't move the point, since there is no coincidency constraint, only tangency. I'm not saying the internal representation should change, or even that the constraint number in the GUI should chan...

Re: Can I Increase the Text and Point Size of Restraints?

Hi, I'm facing the samme issue now on my MBPro, and cannot find the marker size preference in v0.19 on MacOS X. The font size setting doesn't seem to affect the sizes.

Re: Parametric constraint can be changed only one way for fully constrained sketch

Ah wait, I realized what @chrisb was saying. Using the point-to-point tangency, my alternate solution is fully constrained as well. This is very confusing, how would you define point-to-point tangency? This should probably appear as a tanency and a coincidence constraint. I understand why there is i...

Re: Parametric constraint can be changed only one way for fully constrained sketch

Hmm, I see where you are going with this, and indeed it is simpler, but the fact that it is a tangent is just a coincidence because the two lengths from the two lines are equal. If they were 2 and 4 mm, they wouldn't be tangents anymore, and I don't see any other way to define these contraints. Btw,...
