Woodworking - getDimensions
I created FreeCAD macro that gets chipboards dimensions to cut. This macro creates spreadsheet named "toCut" with all needed things to cut chipboards for your woodworking project.

Nice One. Can you add cube array aslo?
Re: Woodworking - getDimensions
I created this macro long time ago (I guess 1 year ago) but shared it now. I made several bookcases using this macro only with cubes. I found cubes the easiest way to design bookcases in FreeCAD. What do you mean exactly by cube arrays? How it will be useful in bookcase woodworking design? Any examples? You can group cubes in folders and this should work.jaisejames wrote:Nice One.

The biggest problem I see is that FreeCAD not allow for spreadsheet direct printing. This is kinda annoying because you have to deal with it a little bit manually in LibreOffice. Maybe someone write to FreeCAD to add spreadsheet direct printing?
Thanks

Re: Woodworking - getDimensions
actually you can also mention it in a relevant forum thread like https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=20508
but you could be hijacking a thread. so the best way is to open a new thread as a feature request and then if there is consensus you can open a Feature Request ticket.

Re: Woodworking - getDimensions
I don't have account there, anyone has and can do that? Anyone know how to open ticket to be seen and take into consideration by FreeCAD?Kunda1 wrote:you could open a feature request ticket on the tracker: http://freecadweb.org/tracker/
How to do it correctly? I guess I wrote year ago about (printing & my macro) to someone from FreeCAD but nobody answer.Kunda1 wrote:Also feel free to submit your macro to https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-macros

I've just opened ticket about direct printing here http://freecadweb.org/tracker/view.php?id=2957 (maybe someone notice that).
