Perhaps it's due to these facts that it isn't merged yet. I'm sure your comments will be welcome.

I was hoping for this sort of response!

Thank you! No problem. By the way, I haven't forgotten about this, just trying to find the best way to tackle it, as it's a big PR. Also, I have strong opinions regarding coding styles/techniques that generally don't seem to align with RealThunder's approach. I think my first step will be to take a...

But then I got hooked to 3D graphics lately

This same thing happened to me recently

Anywho, not sure how far along your OpenGL journey you are, but if you're just getting started I can recommend some resources.

As an experienced FreeCAD programmer it would be great if you could have a look at realthunder's pending fixes for the Expression engine. That PR seems to be one of the showstoppers for a 0.19 stable. 😂 I’ve been skipping realthunder’s PRs due to them being so huge and daunting. As you’ve pointed o...

I'd like to read-through PR's and provide comments, though I don't currently have a dev environment set up to compile FreeCAD. Would that be helpful?

I had considered adding my demo gif to my original post but was worried it might be seen too much like self promotion. si...

"If I can afford a commercial software, why should I still consider/care about FOSS?"

Algebra is probably the main reason why I still have a paper and a pen on my desk I think however engineers aren't physician. This is generally 'simple' algebra Basically from this perspective, all engineering is always risk management 👍👍👍 If I was a hiring manager and needed an engineer I'd offer ...

I had the impression that most engineers were inclined to numerical solutions in the first instance, giving little thought to algebraic aspects Consider the following analogy: what if children were only taught how to use a calculator, but not how to actually add/subtract/multiply, etc.? Do you thin...
