Hi. With PartDesign in its current form, and the lack of topological naming, it is very hard to change anything in the first features without breaking anything. Any change that causes faces and edges to be renumbered is very likely to make sketches being mapped to other faces and break external geom...

Answering my own question, transformPlacement seems to be used only by Edit->Alignment. PositionBySketch isn't very clear so far, I think it merely specifies, what is shown in partdesign feature's placement property (which is read-only)...

Hi!
Have you tried gesture navigation style, which is available in development version of FreeCAD (0.16)? I'm interested in if it reacts to touchpad gestures on mac... it may happen to react to something.

BaseApp/Preferences/DAGView as evident from commit message.

Hi!
Does anyone know, what all this interlinked system of placement-related routines is supposed to do?

Ickby! I have squashed commits, see my branch AMM-sketchMapping9

A todo list for me: essential: * [done] fix PartDesign refusing to pad * [done] renames, split into more files * [done] merge into assemblyMergeMaster * [epic] transfer DatumPlane, DatumLine, DatumPoint to Attacher * do something about PropertyEnumeration optional, can be done later: * more modes * ...

One is that old files won't be loaded properly (I didn't test, but it should fail to load support property). I have fixed this one. In the process, I found out that enumeration properties are stored as integer value (I expected strings). Which is a problem, because inserting new modes will become a...

Select the array in tree view, and change the corresponding property in property editor.

I found two problems with the change to multiobject support in Sketcher. One is that old files won't be loaded properly (I didn't test, but it should fail to load support property). That needs fixing. Next is that when sketch is mapped to more than one object, padding the sketch fails. That needs fi...
