Nice! can we expect it to be in 0.19 or in 0.20?

This is a very great and convenient improvment for Partdesign WB, thank you for this very very cool feature!
Did you achieve this thanks to your toponaming algorithm? I mean, does this improvement needs your toponaming algorithm?

This means that your assembly probably used some function or feature that is only available in my fork of FreeCAD.
Subsidiary question: what do you think of what I had suggested a long time ago, but which obviously had not been completely understood:

That is indeed not trivial to implement. Have you seen any similar visual cue in other CAD? Maybe some video links.

Most likely it will land in 0.20.

Yes. It decodes the geometry sub-element name to find the generated faces.
Try Assembly3 with my custom build of FreeCAD at here.

I guess your toponaming algorithm involves so many possibilities to locate and "link" every element reliably :D
For exemple maybe it could be possible to locate constaints of distance in skeches then to import them in Techdraw, by selecting feature by feature and view by view.
But that's kind offtopic, I will ask his opinion to Wandererfan in Techraw subforum.

Here is a small video where I try to show how it works:

Hi

Did you see the challenge of @Kunda1?

(https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=43780)

this weekend I couldn't resist the urge to try this mechanism with Asm3 WB.
Here's what I get.

Wow! That's awesome!

I have been busy preparing to show my own awesome features for the past week. Wait till you see my videos.
