Re: Migrating (soon to be deprecated) Drawing WB tickets to TechDraw WB
So this is about dxf (or svg,pdf,...) export, not display on screen or print out? That makes some sense.Jee-Bee wrote:In Pro-E i used this for sending drawings to laser cutting companies. where the last page was an 1:1 model without paper so they can use it as dxf

Yes, thanks!Kunda1 wrote:So should I close these for sure?
+1. There has been many discussions about that already, I think it can be closed.NormandC wrote:I would tend to close issue #2648 as won't fix.

Based on this, does issue #1880 get moved to TD and become a child of issue #2882?wandererfan wrote:So this is about dxf (or svg,pdf,...) export, not display on screen or print out?

Edit: I fixed the borked issue numbers. Thanks @sgrogan!

Re: Migrating (soon to be deprecated) Drawing WB tickets to TechDraw WB
Couple of questions:wandererfan wrote:Sorry to take so long to get back to you @kunda1. Here is my take on your list. As others have mentioned, there are no actual plans to retire Drawing at this time.
0143 - Allow moving of views graphically on the page
- in TD
1494 - Add the current view in the orthographic projection tool
- in TD DPG dialog
1679 - Add an action to set orthographic projections as hints for a drawing page
- TD is drag and drop. x/y aren't generally set manually
1688 - Orthographic projection uses more digits behind decimal point for scale than shown in properties
- TD uses global decimals setting
1727 - API function Drawing.projectToDXF
- TD has no projectToDXF API function. no plans for one at this time.
1822 - Scale factor property in drawing page limited to one digit (sometime two)
- TD uses global decimal setting
1863 - Global preference for drawing line width
- Line style/weight preference changes are planned (related 1920,1921)
1867 - Use QtWebKit (QWebView) instead of QtSvg for DW drawing area
- not relevant to TD
1880 - Show/hide drawing template structure
- no plans for this. is it useful for something?
1920 - Drawing scale and stroke-dasharray
1921 - Drawing view hidden lines (style) and stroke-dasharray
- Line style/weight preference changes are planned (related 1863)
2004 - Performance regression when more (empty) drawing pages inserted
- empty pages do not seem to be an issue in TD. more non-empty pages will of course slow things down.
2123 - drawing workbench - enable rotation by 3 axis
- you can set the direction of a view to anything you want. Not really applicable to TD
2184 - Drawing template filenames for ISO7200 are numbered consecutively but corresponding files do not exist
- not an issue in TD. different handling of templates.
2283 - Drawing::FeatureViewPart LineWidth should not be scaled
- line widths are not scaled in TD
2620 - Appears in both V0.16 and daily builds Drawing dxf export not working correctly
- no plans for dxf export in TD at this time
2629 - Merge Drawing_dimensioning into Drawing
- no plans to merge Drawing_dimensioning into TD. Some intention to steal good ideas.
2648 - Changing the template in the Drawing-Workbench is not saved
- works in TD
2384 - Drawing dotted lines are inconsistent
- appears to be OCC hidden line issue. resolved in 7.1
2383 - Drawing lines missing or incorrect
- resolved in OCC 7.1
2427 - hidden lines
- resolved OCC 7.1
Hope this helps.

@wandererfan mentioned the above tickets. I've started to resolve some of them as you can see from the 1st post which I'm using to keep track of the work. Am I doing it right? If Drawing is not deprecated yet which issues should stay? Do we need to notate them a certain way to indicate that Drawing will be deprecated and attention is now pointed to TechDraw?

Re: Migrating (soon to be deprecated) Drawing WB tickets to TechDraw WB
I just meant that I currently had no plans to make a dxf export. If somebody wants it, we should have a feature request in the list for sure.Kunda1 wrote:I created issue #2882 (DXF support in TechDraw) based on this...

Re: Migrating (soon to be deprecated) Drawing WB tickets to TechDraw WB
Should issue #956 "Integrate triplus macro as command into Part/Drawing" (thread) become a Feature Request for TD ?

Re: Migrating (soon to be deprecated) Drawing WB tickets to TechDraw WB
From a quick review only, TD already does pretty much everything discussed in the thread. I'd say mark it "won't fix" or "resolved in TD".Kunda1 wrote:Should issue #956 "Integrate triplus macro as command into Part/Drawing" (thread) become a Feature Request for TD ?
