So FreeCAD can be used for optics too. Thanks for sharing, I learned something new.

Re: Optics in FreeCAD
This is awesome. I've been wondering how I could pull this off in freecad for a while now.

Very nice work !!! I'm curious: How did you do a fast representation of the rays? makeLine is not that fast. Did you use the functions from the Draft workbench?christi wrote: ↑Sun Aug 22, 2021 4:33 pm The Optics workbench is now installable via the addons manager.

I am using Part.makeLine(). All rays are then bundeled to a compound and added to the Ray object in the FreeCAD view. See Ray.py in the workbench source code.
