Re: How to replace chamfer with fillet automatically?

Fillets create tangential edges. And material could be added/removed betwen those edges thus converting the fillet to chamfer. Chamfers also propagate along tangential edges. Fillet could be converted to regular 45deg chamfers. "Non 45deg"/"non equal length" chamfers could be co...

Re: PD CUT and Part CUT yielding different results

Your sketches are not fully constrained, your bodies are at some weird orientation. How do you expect exact results is beyound me...
How did you position those bodies in such a way? What is with the broken body (all those Pads that are not under a body)?

How to replace chamfer with fillet automatically?

Is there a way (command/macro/...) to automatically replace a fillet/chamfer with a corresponding chamfer/fillet under PD body? Search did not give any results. I modeled a piece after the original injection molded one. Now I want to 3D print it but of cource the original is rounded all over and for...

Re: hidden tasks.

Under Windows you can move/stack/arrange them relatively free. Since those are Qt windows cant you just arrange them as you desire? I have Tasks and selection overlayed on the right upper part of man window, DAG, Report view, Python console overlayed and placed under them... Just arange them as you ...

Groove cut along any plane

I had an idea how to make a groove along the outer surface of a body lying on an arbitrary cross section. First idea was to use SubShapeBinder 2d offset but this failed on the generated cross section (and would probably fail on most arbitrary cross sections). So the next idea was to make a subtracti...

Aren't those rounds actually arches? What is wrong with dimensioning them as such with their radius? 4xR2? And why didn't you constraint them as radiuses in the sketch?

Re: Dado / groove for woodworking - Boolean "keep tool"

Here is how I would have done it. Since those are simple shapes create the main shape by convenient cross section and use a SubShapeBinder with desired offset to cut desired dados.

Re: Impossible to mirror a sketch

Or Multitransform with 3 item linear pattern in one direction and then mirror to get the other half.

Re: Crash When Applying Constraints To Imported Geometry

No problems here. I tried importing edge that imports as line, constraining to one of its points - Ok. Imported edge that imports as point, constrained to it - Ok. Where are you getting your version? Self compiled from the original sources (no changes to the code) because conda builds dont work ok o...
