I want to create a mesh region later on using the section. What I found so far is, that I need this Boolean Fragment and a Compound Filter to do that. If I apply the compound filter directly, I can not select the circular section on the sphere's surface. There are also threads where this is describe...

I want to create a macro to mesh some geometry automatically and need a BooleanFragment in there. I clicked through the process and copied the python commands to a new macro: import BOPTools.SplitFeatures active = App.ActiveDocument sphere = active.addObject("Part::Sphere", "Sphere&qu...

I once saw a demo of Geomagic. Is this the function that creates a huge single NURBS from a mesh? Could be NURBS, I never used it unfortunately... A colleague used Fusion360 to create T-Spline surfaces from quad-meshes. That works surprisingly well, however it depends strongly on the quality of the...

A watertight alien spaceship? No, more like a potato - or maybe, yes, could be an alien spaceship :mrgreen: potato.PNG Is it maybe possible that this function can only create non-closed surfaces? I.e., it would work for a 2d surface embedded in space but not for my object? I tried now to do Part: S...

I would like to test the BSpline Surface approximation in the reverse engineering workbench, because I have a use-case where this could come in handy. However, I can not figure out how to use it and all I can create is abstract art: art.PNG Okay, I have to admit, I was not trying very hard :mrgreen:...

@reox you can use Macro_FCInfo ... outside sketcher

mario

yes, outside I was pretty sure that I got lengths of curves from inside the sketcher... But I guess I dreamed that

I select the BSpline curve and use this python macro: This works outside of Sketcher, but not inside. Has this never worked that way or since version X? Because I remember using something like that some time ago... But maybe I'm mislead. Anyways, as long as I can get the length from somewhere it's ...

I have sketched a BSpline in the sketcher and would like to get the length of the curve. I select the BSpline curve and use this python macro: Gui.Selection.getSelectionEx()[0].SubObjects[0].Length However, I get: >>> # Gui.Selection.addSelection('Unnamed1','Sketch','Edge5',18.0984,3.5894,0.008,Fals...

vllt hilft dir: https://github.com/reox/FreeCAD_macros/ ... th.FCMacro

muss nur die jeweiligen Sachen einkommentieren die man haben will, zB LineWidth

Maybe this could be a separate thread, however here are my 2cents: Currently, it is very simple to write some macros for FreeCAD, especially TechDraw. As long as all functions that are required have a python API, macros are the way to go. And using Macros, you can basically already get a full featur...
