Please check out the links in my previous post. Particularly links from around 2012. Yes, I've read some of them. I have also previously watched SW 2019's new feature demos on youtube and amazed by their new assembly improvement, which leads me to say that nowadays, those mid-rage CAD can already h...

Hi realthunder. I brought this up before and it has always been in the back of my mind ever since. Some class teaching assistants claim that CAD products like NX, CATIA and CREO can handle very large assemblies of say 100,000 parts while Solidworks (maybe not Solidworks 2019) and others cannot. Usu...

@realthunder Read this more as a thinking out loud type of question. App::Link is therefore a lightweight representation of the linked feature. Being capable of extracting some properties from the linked feature document object. A discussion has been started here: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewt...

In response to request from eivindkvedalen, one of the original author of the Spreadsheet workbench, I make this post for discussion of my current work on expression and spreadsheet. You may find a more user oriented overview at here . At the current stage, I consider it not matured enough to be con...

*note* commits and changes does not directly reflect progress/improvements. its not an good benchmark, but still ^_^ Well, it is a bit misleading indeed. There is one big commit in particular, which is due to regenerating the expression syntax parser. That's really a small change in the source file...

In the RT page I read: The biggest challenge of making Link work is to solve the selection ambiguity problem. Because with Link, the same object can now appear in many different hierarchy, e.g. with a Link that links to a group, the child object now appears in two different coordinate system. Sayin...

I actually have the same feeling when I was researching for topo naming and step importing. I can see that OCC seems to have provided everything we need here. Why not just use them from the beginning. My guess is that at the time FC started, OCC lacks many functions we have today. It may had worse d...

Yes, sure.

I will hopefully be free to work on FC in about a week's time. I'll first bring my branch up to date with upstream. I originally planned a few features for the next release, but since we are talking about 0.19 development now, I think it is better for me to release a merged version for testing first...

@realthunder yes, i use https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers trying to get the most out of my vega8 laptops graphics card and it seems that the crashes started after a recent update(a day or two, not sure at this point). As a last resort i could ppa purge , but please bare ...
