because it's not useful for everybody. What I use all the time are the fasteners from the fasteners workbench, which I suspect are used by much more people than the openscad things, and yet it's an external WB. And there is no problem with that, it's the very purpose of a modular design. I think wh...

My thought: Yes, please!

The 1st phase of the realthunder's Toponaming algorithm appears now to be completed under the guidance of Ondsel's new developer John Dupuy (JohnAD in GitHub). So, the next phases should start to add code that are actually activated and are going to change how FreeCAD behaves (but still not full TNP...

Prior to this 7830 being resolved, it was necessary to connect the 3d reference geometry to the corresponding 2d geometry using LinkDimension. Now, the 3d reference geometry is projected directly onto the view. This eliminates one source of mismatches. Ah, I see, so there's already a new independen...

The error detection and correction algo works for 3d dimensions also. It doesn't know about projection or hidden lines. It just compares the current referenced shape with the saved copy. But doesn't the axonometric system depend on the 3D model for the correct distances? If the 3D model changes, th...

The other gif shows incorrect operations for the redefinition (link to the model) of the dimension in axonometric using different procedures. :( Yes, WandererFan's algorithm for TNP mitigation concerns only 2D geometry, which is flattened from 3D model -> 2D drawing by OCCT routines. Because axonom...

If this looks like Assembly4 features then you're right. It is all I know, but 90% happy with it. If someone familiar with A2P and ASM3 could make a similar list then we would have a way to make comparisons and contrasts of essential features. I also use exclusively Asm4 for assemblies; as you said...

Those wanting to test the 1st phase changes without compilation, you'll be able to find the test versions from weekly-builds, where the currently most recent versions (32457) contain this TechDraw TNP mitigation 1st phase code. It's already pretty great, if you e.g. add holes into your model (see gi...

Big thanks for coding the error correction system! This newly merged feature, and especially the further improvements currently under development are going to make maintaining TD drawings much much easier in the future. Of course, there'll still be room for improvement, but this is already going to ...
