It looks like the RepRap software aims to import csg-files directly. http://reprap.org/wiki/Mendel_User_Manual:_Host_Software#Using_CSG https://github.com/reprap/host/tree/master/src/org/reprap/geometry They seem not to shoot for the really complex operations either. So far the supported OpenSCAD pr...

Part.makePolygon() takes a list of tuples but does not accepts a list of lists: Part.makePolygon([(0,0,1),(0,1,0)]) works Part.makePolygon([[0,0,1],[0,1,0]]) does not work. Calling tuple() on Vectors works, so using tuple() in my code doesn't break anything. But the error message in case of an list ...

typical one liner :) def polyhedron(points,faces,mksolid=True): '''creates a Polyhedron. returns a solid shape points is a list of lists/tuples/vectors (ressembling the Vetrices) faces is a list of lists/tuples referencing points from the points list to be using for each planar face''' shell=Part.Sh...

What you need is to define a grammar for the SCAD file I found the following grouping statements for the 'subset' { } means only if applicable cgaladv.cc minkowski(convexity =) cgaladv.cc glide(path =) cgaladv.cc subdiv(level =) cgaladv.cc hull() color.cc color([r, g, b, a]) csgops.cc union() csgop...

So I think it fair to say CSG is a subset without some of the language features like functions etc it seems to bee a dump of thier in memory tree structure. As there is practicaly no documentaion on this subset, we might have to get through every 'toString()' Method in OpenSCAD. cgaladv.cc color.cc...

I'm sorry I don't see the difference.

I'd recommend to so this in python. There is some info in the Wiki and in the source of src/Mod/TemplatePyMod. But i would recomment to look at the sourcecode of an existing import function. In src/Mod/Draft you will find the Draft Module. It includes the import functions for DXF files. As DXF impor...

I have thought about 3 ways. 1. Render a STL-File, import and work on the mesh. (should work out of the box; mentioned above) 2. Parse the OpenSCAD file and create a static BRep structure. (no tessellation of circles) 2a. Parse the OpenSCAD file and use FreeCAD Parametric objects. 3. Parse the OpenS...

Would the following do the job? EDIT:
this just does the rebase
you still have to apply it to the master
