Usage of Shape binder

[kishore]

- First is using base objects. You achive that by selecting a object bevore creating the body, or changing the BaseFeature property of the body.

Is it possible to use another body as the base feature? This will be needed when I wish to modify the base body adding features to it and see them adopted in all other bodies that use it as base feature.

One idee: I did not try it, b ut it shoudl work to move a Draft clone into PDN boolean. So if one really wants to keep the original outside the body it would work

Draft Clone does it again!

I had a quick look at the discussion. Indeed the ShapeBinder is not intended to become Part of the Model, if it gets merged, after e.g. Patting a face of it, it is a bug.

Code: Select all

OS: Ubuntu 22.10 (ubuntu:GNOME/ubuntu)
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.21.31109 (Git) AppImage
Build type: Release
Branch: master
Hash: c23ee7ad88433a0f00e84afae0a62fe738be0c09

Seems that this bug still exists. The shapebinder became fused with the model in the attached file.

Just drag it out of the body (see PartDesign_ShapeBinder#Notes)

Just tried that. The shape is still fused to the body.

The problem is the attachment of the sketch:

Get it fixed, and the first Pad will look like this:

Alas, as you have attached sketches to (generated) faces the model breaks due to the TNP. Instead of re-attaching things I rather recommend to fix it following the advice for creating stable models.

Ok thanks, I'll try to follow those tips.
