Re: Cannot select multiple features in Mirror or MultiTransform (solved using v0.19)
My guess is my terminology is a bit off and I'm causing some alignment confusion. I'm generically calling pads, pockets, chamfers features and I'm guessing that is wrong. You can read here for Feature (and for more FreeCAD) terminology: https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Glossary#Feature Perfect! I wa...

Re: Intermediate Online FreeCAD course?
Sounds like an interesting concept I might be interested. I'm assuming we'd pick a workbench and a concept or a build?
Might want to think about something like zoom, it supports a lot more simultaneous attendees and is bar the most stable I've used.

Re: Cannot select multiple features in Mirror or MultiTransform (solved using v0.19)
I wasn't precise enough. I should have said "Multitransform is not for directly transforming multiple features." Your first multitransform contains a mirror and the mirror contains multiple features. You could - and should - have used the mirror without the multitransform around. In the s...

Re: How to see dimensions of another sketch?
With links to external geometry you should be carefull with what you link to in order to keep you model from breaking. If that edge is contained in a sketch link to that instead of corresponding feature (pad/pocket/...) edge. Ha, never though of utilizing references from the sketch that I use to ge...

Re: Cannot select multiple features in Mirror or MultiTransform
Multitransform is for more than one transformation, not for transforming multiple features. Each pattern or mirror can work with multiple features, but it is a very cumbersome selection method in 0.18. It has slightly changed in 0.19. It is important to get the sequence right, so you should not sta...

Re: How to see dimensions of another sketch?
You can also directly reference external geometries. First select the "Create an edge linked to an external geometry" Step1.PNG and then select the edge Step2.PNG . Now select the horizontal constraint (or whichever makes sense in your case) Step3.PNG . The final result is a constraint tha...

Re: Cannot select multiple features in Mirror or MultiTransform
Loaded up the latest 0.19 (pasted in below) for kicks. I was able to get everything including the chamfer to mirror! Thanks for the help! Maybe I'll go bold and do all of my work there. Version I got it working in: OS: Windows 10 (10.0) Word size of OS: 64-bit Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit Version: 0...

Re: Cannot select multiple features in Mirror or MultiTransform
Chamfers cannot be patterned. realthunder has just submitted a pull request to v 0.19 which should ge into master soon. Okay, so I removed the chamfer and all I'm left with is a pad and pocket, but I'm still having the same issue. I cannot select both features in the single mirror operation. See up...

Cannot select multiple features in Mirror or MultiTransform (solved using v0.19)
I have a composite feature I would like to mirror and/or multi-transform. The composite feature is made up of 3 features, a pad, a pocket, and a chamfer: FeaturesToReplicate.PNG I would like to replicate this so it is present in all four corners of the square face as in FullPart.PNG but obviously wi...
