Re: Convert mesh (stl file) into a Part Design part object

Unfortunately, I think there are too many defects in the file. Did you make this in another software? Does the other software offer other export formats? If you can export as step format you could try that. What are the changes you wish to make? Helloo dear Mr. Mark! Good to hear from you! Yes. Thi...

Re: Convert mesh (stl file) into a Part Design part object

The mesh is not a single object. You can split it with the Mesh_SplitComponents command. Some of the component meshes have errors that may require attention, see Mesh_Evaluation . To creates solids from the mesh components see Import_from_STL_or_OBJ . That's dope. Amazing links I am checking them a...

Re: Creating parametric Macros to build several assemblies/compounds

You have to use scripting, in other word, write a program to do things, and not simply mimics the work of the Gui. a little example: Create a plain text file and name it with .py extension. Put lines of code in the text file and save it. Load it in FreeCAD using the usual File > Open The file is lo...

Hello everyone! I hope everyone is having a great time! I am currently working with the Macros python-based scripting. In essence, I have an assembly compound that I built "manually", for each body part from scratch in the Sketcher WB, extruding, etc. I need to convert all those manual ste...

Re: Importing Excel sheet for dynamic parametric geometries

In recent 0.20 builds you can use preferences to change the delimiter when importing csv files. In 0.19 only tabs are supported. I see. Still, I couldn't import my Excel directly to FreeCAD. I'll try some other file formats. Although I found that I can manipulate between cells in Spreadsheet WB, ev...

Re: Importing Excel sheet for dynamic parametric geometries

What exactly you want to do? I could guess from the title that you want to import excel spreadsheet directly onto a FreeCAD Spreadsheet, but you talk also about formulas.
