Re: Topological naming mess vs Realtunder : when can we hope for a solution?
i do not have piles of cash, sadly, but i do want to donate or help where i can. I am not a programmer by any means, but since i have used freecad alot and done some great things, i feel it deserves some help. As others have already said, this isn't the kind of problem that can be solved by throwin...

Understanding who our users are...really
To make Ondsel and FreeCAD great, we need a much better understanding of who's using it and how. We've put together a brief (less than 5 minutes) survey that will help. We'll share key findings but we need YOU to respond. Seriously important!

Re: Splitting job for multiple bits
First create the pocket with the large bit.
Next create a similar pocket with the small bit.
In the small bit pocket operation, tick 'use REST machining'

Re: Sketcher Toolbars
We're planning several days of hackathon at Fosdem in February. One goal is to get real users sitting in front of a desktop and trying to use FreeCAD. I encourage everyone here with strong opinions to come and participate. I guarantee it will be a painful and humbling experience. Pontificating, blov...

Re: Where do we stand with Camotics as a visualizer?
@Sliptonic In the end, is Camotics going to replace the actual Freecad simulator? Or can we go on and make updates to the internal simulator? (see my post on discord) Absolutely, you can make improvements to the internal. Highly welcome. The two solutions can happily co-exist. If Camotics matures f...

Re: Where do we stand with Camotics as a visualizer?
That's correct. We require 1.3.0. Unfortunately, camotics has it in their changelog but never released it formally.

Re: Tool path on wrong height
GRBL does not accept tool changes so there is no need to take steps with different tools in the job FYI, you can set up a job with multiple operations with different tools. In the output tab, set 'order by' to 'operation' and enable the split output. This will split the gcode into multiple files so...

Re: OndselSolver warnings
I think init only has to be done once. The update has to be done every time the required version changes. Running update every time is no problem. All this is done automatically in the CI/CD Pipeline. Anyone building from source will have to do it manually though. I'm not sure if it can be added to ...

Re: Integrated assembly workbench coming to your doorstep
Questions: 1. Is there a product specification that we users can review so we know what to expect? 2. Are there any release notes or directions how to get started? 3. Will there be an official central thread where we users can report problems or requests, e.g. in the Development>Assembly forum rath...
