Though you are updating your DevLog daily at https://podestplatz.github.io/FreeCAD-b ... /dev-logs/ , but posting here alternate day or twice a week is desirable.

I started a wiki page on github for the plugin. You can view it here . Wit it I intend to give everyone interested an introduction to the plugin, and how it operates under the hood. In addition to that I will update the Readme.md of the plugin repository with a little tutorial on how to use the plu...

One last question regarding the form in which I will write the documentation: Do you mind if I write the documentation in latex? Or what form shall the documentation take on? Should it be already in the form of a wiki page? Though I like LaTeX very much and work a lot with it. But, IMO, you can use...

@ Suraj On reviewing your current implementation, to make your work more useful to structural engineers / detailer, I suggest: 1. Practically, all tie covers i.e. left, right, top and bottom covers are equal. so, all covers should change according to first i.e. left cover of tie. 2. Add help button ...

I am happy that you like my work, Yorik :) Good code will be liked and appreciated by all Coders :-) That is a good idea, I will certainly do that! The functional modules that are currently available (reader and writer) as well as the classes comprising the data model should not be used directly. I...

While creating stirrups, if we set offset of tie to zero, then the bottom stirrup will go out of column IMO, in this case offset should be from end face of column to centre line of tie / stirrup. The checking its placement with zero offset, is just to check your logic. Practically, it never be less...
