Video are IMHO not very taylored to learn something for a countless reason said many times. Most YT video are simply "click baits" to gain money with advertisements this explain many things. Encouraging "bad practices" like inserting video on forum messages IMHO is not a great st...

Thoughts on merging fasteners and gears in core Part Wb as single tools, each with its own taskbox letting you select the type and configure it? Untitled.png Better to leave Part mostly as is. IMHO being a direct interface to OCCT kernel, having less overhead on it is more logical. Some logic has t...

I have an update for this issue. And honestly I just stumbled on to it! Anyway maybe someone will read this post and gain some in site. ... What is the point? Your first post was fairly verbose and full of rants from LLM bots that are not tailored to make correct deductions as they are statistical ...

... There is pretty poor documentation about how to use Python to create parts ... There is plenty of documentation about it, if you search in right places. In the FreeCAD wiki there are many pages about Scripting. In FreeCAD forum under Python Scripting a quick search will give you some hints for ...

... Where can I check the naming conventions? Thanks.. There is not in my knowledge a document, but a quick look will tell you that FreeCAD use CamelCase convention in many places exposed to the user, probably Draft is a little exception, and follows more closely the Python way.

0.20 is quite outdated, try to use an 0.21.2 AppImage, that should work better. Probably you have a problem with the fusion. You code IMHO is very involuted, some remarks: - Better to make explicit parts an fuse them, fuse could accept a list of objects, but they must intersect between them, so if y...

AppImages and Flatpacks are different from an installation from sources or using a distribution package.

Kind regards

It is always a pleasure to read yours PR, even if I barely read C++ code. Sometimes I find things that could help me to understand FreeCAD better.

Thanks for you hard work on FreeCAD.

Hi all. I'm a programmer and want to make extensive use of macros to build objects and do other CAD activities. The easiest way I have found to do this is copying the Console Python output and make the necessary changes. ... From a programmer's point of view, what is output by the Python Console is...
