Re: Manipulator WorkBench

Based on your picture it looks like a lot of clicks before having an angle measurement... Based on your observations it looks like you haven't event tried the WB before your comment :P (face1, edge1, face2, edge2) Why not just edge1 and edge2 for angle between edges and face1 and face2 for an betwe...

Re: How to mate faces?

How can I mate the selected faces? I've tried adding a plane constraint between the two, but it just rotates the smaller part to be on the same plane, literally. I need it to not only do that, but also for it to move to the selected face to the left (on the larger part). I need these parts to be co...

Re: Measure/Measure Angular in python

I have tried the WB. It doesn't work properly for me. I want to measure angles on wires. This is how I make wires: I can upload a drawing if you would like something to work on. .... The "Measure/Measure Angle" works as it should. Mårten Hi, the Caliper is aimed to work as a friendly Gui,...

Re: Help on FreeCAD Vector Math library

You also have to consider the orientation of an edge when building the vectors. doc.Wedge.Shape.Edges[0].Orientation # 'Forward' doc.Wedge.Shape.Edges[1].Orientation # 'Forward' doc.Wedge.Shape.Edges[2].Orientation # 'Reversed' When the two edges have different orientation then everything is fine. ...

Help on FreeCAD Vector Math library

Hi, I'm developing a 'Caliper' macro to calculate angles between Edges on 3D objects using the https://freecadweb.org/wiki/FreeCAD_vector_math_library/en The macro works fine but in some case I have an Angle result with wrong values... Here a basic code to replicate the error: #"Vector math lib...

Re: Feature request: Add "Measure radial" to Std Measure Menu?

I don't know if it is more easy. only i know is that there is not enough measurement tools inside of FreeCAD by deafault No angle measurement No radius or diameter measurement No Center to center measurement no mass/ inertia (of course there is no material defined in each part) ... I would love to ...

Re: Measure/Measure Angular in python

I need some help scripting measurements. Three is nothing in documentation or in the forum. There is no output in Python console when doing it in the gui. The Draft.makeAngularMeasurement doesn't work for me as I am doing my stuff in 3D using Part. Hi @more11 I've started to work at my Manipulator ...
