Re: Name of a solid in a compound - from selection

Dear Chris_G, Thanks for your reply. Because your code adds a whole object to selection. In my code sf is a sub-solid like 'Solid1' or 'Solid2' of my CompSolid called 'compsolid'. I do not hand over the complete CompSolid but the complete CompSolid is highlighted. You can add subshapes to selection ...

Re: Problem with the scale of views made with the draftview command

Sorry, I misunderstood the discussion before. :oops:
I thought it is possible to scale single views and not the complete document.
But looks like the discussion is still about the document.

Re: What about using GPU's to speed up matrix math?

Is it possible to use it e.g. for draft-array operations an parts. Some time ago there was a discussion in the German forum about the long time for arrays (and maybe fuse) of PDN-bodies. I experienced this also for PDN-transformations if the copies go into the hundreds. Any chance that this could be...

Re: Problem with the scale of views made with the draftview command

Is it possible to switch the factor 10 scale off when exporting. This would resolve this prob: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=21597&start=30 Quickly tested it on the following system and still see a factor x10 in the view(-box) in Inkscape: OS: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS Word size...

Re: Bugtracker recent changes

Should this be stated on the mantis website, so reporters can look up what is missing and report again.

Re: Select inner faces as FEM boundary

Hello, I think the only option you have is to use clipping planes. Go to View->clipping Plane and than simply select the inner face. However, as the plane settings open in the tasks panel and all clipping planes vanish on close it cannot be used parallel to annother open task. so this only works if...

Re: "Solid" clipping plane

Looks nice, Is this possible without blocking the Task-panel as the original clipping tool does? This could be very usefull for FEM-wb for selecting inner solids and faces. Please see also https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=12381&p=151950#p151950 to get an impression what I ne...
