A-ha! Thanks for this additional tip.

Re: How to resize a rectangle edge only in one dimension? (PartDesign)

Use constraints. Aligned your top side -> Vert Distance constraint to one of involved points -> adjust left side -> horz constraint to a corner -> .... EDIT: you can also grab points. This moves less stuff all at once. Grabbing points is helpful, thank you. (I was going to say "Grabbing points...

How to resize a rectangle edge only in one dimension? (PartDesign)

When I move a rectangle edge with mouse, it also affects the other connected edges' positions, like so: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6639874/44623439-c6686c00-a8d6-11e8-87dd-f4a998ccd267.gif I tried pressing and holding Ctrl or Shift like I do for drawing perpendicular line in Gimp, but...

Re: Assembly3 preview

Hi, I've been working on another topic for some time, but I'm still very much attentive to the development of ASM3. I have a problem however: the images you provide are going too fast for me! I have found a way to start the first image, but the scroll is too fast for me, and as we can not put a pic...

Re: Repacking FCStd files

Packing in the order of unpacking solved the case. Here are the unpack and repack scripts: #!/bin/bash set -eu set_dir(){ _dir="$(cd "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")" && pwd)"; }; set_dir safe_source () { source $1; set_dir; } # end of bash boilerplate # Descrip...

Re: [SOLVED] Repacking FCStd files

FYI: This approach does not work at the moment. Unpacked files mostly contain binary data, which can be neither diffed visually, nor saved efficiently. Simply moving a large stl in the drawing triggers changes in the following documents: modified: assembly.fcstd.d/Document.xml modified: assembly.fcs...

Re: Diffing through .fcstd files

Won't that require a human readable form of 3D file format? If you look into the files you see that they are human readable xml files. Being Ascii file doesn't necessarily mean it's human readable (I couldn't read at least). Diffing would involve some sort of conflict resolution cases. We currently...

Re: Diffing through .fcstd files

The fcstd format requires that one particular file is encoded first in the zip - I'm pretty sure it's Document.xml. Probably the easiest way to achieve this, is to create a zip with just Document.xml, then explicitly pack Document.xml first: zip -r newfile.FCStd add Document.xml all other files her...

Re: Assembly3 preview

Regarding to #2, I'm convinced that it can not be done unless some scripting is involved, so it should be left out of ASM3 context. Thanks for the answers, I'm moving forward. You could/should use Spreadsheet workbench to drive the dimensions in a logical way. No scripting required, if I understand...
