Re: Draft menus

I am not sure why the Draft menu is shorter in the Arch WB. ... The menus are defined manually in the InitGui.py of the workbench. The one in Draft has all commands of Draft, while the one in Arch only adds some Draft commands to the toolbar. This isn't done automatically; somebody has to edit Arch...

Re: Rename: Std_ClippingPlane to Std_ToggleClipPlane

...many commands are named after the objects they create, and thus the objects and the commands share their wiki pages. But then how would you document it? "The Std_CreatePlane command creates a Plane. See the documentation of Plane." The action would have barely any documentation; it wou...

Re: Rename: Std_ClippingPlane to Std_ToggleClipPlane

is everyone just going to not notice the "toggle" word in the command strings being utterly wrong :roll: ? The command opens a task where you can toggle some clipping planes, but in itself does not toggle anything... Of course, however, that would mean changing the name of the C++ classes...

Re: 3d PMI or similar functionally in FreeCAD

After reading up more on what the "Draft" workbench is it seems that what I might be looking for is more in line with the tech draw workbench. But that seems to only deal with 2d sheets. If the Technical Draw workbench was able to work in 3d with the 3d views functionality I feel like it ...

Re: Recommendations for BIM modeling of an attic with angled pitched roof

...The "problem" is that when I have two lines connected at the corner and I change the length of one the other does not shift with it but stays in its place. I guess this is meant to be this way but it is much effort if some length has to be changed. Yes. A building is not something that...

Re: V0.19: Tube Bender Tool Design using Assembly4

The Assembly4 workbench has become my go to workbench when working on articulating assemblies or those in which key dimensions must change parametrically for given design variables. Awesome. I know it's boring, but with every model that you create can you provide a description of your computer, fil...

Re: 3d PMI or similar functionally in FreeCAD

...So I thought it was action to be launched when double clicking on the WP proxy in the tree view. Is it the same for you? Yes. By the way, this working plane proxy is one of those complicated GUI commands. The Proxy is defined in Draft.py, but if you take a look, the properties RestoreView and Re...

Re: Making the creation of arrays more user friendly

Not a lot to really show. Mostly just practice for me doing releases. :) Ping. Is it possible for you to take a look at this thread? Alonso created a macro to show a task panel to set the properties of the array in a more user friendly way. I would like to add it properly into the Draft Workbench. ...

I wonder why those 2 true or false values are not set to true by default.

Pull request #2922. The properties are true by default now.
