while restoring the old placement on error brings linkdaily back in parity with master branch it would be nice if the attachment itself used the toponaming algorithm, from my example using fillet/chamfer on the face it is clear that the algorithm is capable of finding the correct face after it brea...

For the implicit sharing feature, same reason I use QByteArray in StringID and stuff.

if too many chain-elements inbetween are deleted Too many ? We're talking about 3 simple consecutive PartDesign fonctions where 1 is deleted in the middle, and which doesn't pose any problems in FreeCAD 0.20 So i think it's quite normal that a manually reatachment of any orhphaned leaves/twigs migh...

PR submitted for the taper angle problem. The topo naming enabled algorithm is what originally implemented before the upstream version. I choose to retain it because it problem extra function like independent outer and inner tapper angles (for holes). The PR fixed the backward compatibility by addi...

@realthunder: one question, does your TNP solution also take care of the number of solid on multisolids? I thinks so, since your branch allows multsolids. Short answer, no. With the current implementation, the new names are generated for three primitive element type, vertex, edge, and face. There i...

Can you please manually apply the patch here, and try again.

Thank you very much for your help and reply

It is as if you manually set the same draw style (e.g. wireframe) for both document, and you'll get the correct visual.

The TNaming interface has been investigated by others. And in fact, around the same time I was developing my solution, there is another forum member ezzieyguywuf was giving another look at TNaming. See this thread. To complete the picture, this is the thread about my implementation. If any of you ar...

The reason is because the draw style is a per view setting. Since the external linked object lives in another document with a view of different draw style, it is displayed differently. I do have a solution implemented in my branch, but it is not trivial to split it out, and I am quite busy right now...

I have simplify the project to show OCC geometry size problem. The project can be opened in upstream master. This tiny file will explode when you make a fillet for the edge shown in the picture below. The three modified faces are all around 45MiB each. We can export that fillet shape as STEP file a...
