DXF Export using TechDraw classes

[petit_chat_noir]

I've worked on it today.
this is the source :

Source.png (40.98 KiB) Viewed 481 times

Now I Have layers aligned by creating bounding box:

here is the model exported with "temp" line in red :

generated.png (8.45 KiB) Viewed 481 times

and if I hide "temp" layer:

generated2.png (7.88 KiB) Viewed 481 times

Now I have to suppress doubles, remove the bounding box, and the hardest point, color splitted lines

EDIT: after remove doubles

rem_doubles.png (6.78 KiB) Viewed 463 times

Is there a function to test if edges are collinear ? I will have to test that to color splitted lines
I've to rework on bounding box lines, they have to be more small to not much interact with the render

The source code is available on my github workbench :
https://github.com/JeromeL63/Wood-Frame
the macro to launch :

Code: Select all

from WFrame import WFDxfExport

export = WFDxfExport.DxfExport(Gui.Selection.getSelection())
export.extractLayers()
export.extractModel()
export.save()

You have to select objects and layers you want to export before launch
(sorry I haven't made security to launch with no selected objects at the moment !)

Hello !
done !!

this is the source :

source.png (88.74 KiB) Viewed 412 times

and this is the result in draftsight :

result.png (10.88 KiB) Viewed 412 times

I'm very very happy
They are some mistakes but it's quite good !
update my github workbench if you want to use it.
I'll make button and dialog taskbox to use it in few days

I don't understand the ping, but I'm happy you got the result you were looking for.

Je ne comprends pas le ping, mais je suis content que tu as obtenu ton resultat.

No problem, it was just to show you that you helped me a lot !

If this is something that can be merged into Draft for DXF export, you should look into it instead of keeping it in your external workbench.

I see that you are using "ezdxf". What is this exactly?

I think this tool has not his place in draft, but more probably in arch. I'm trying to make functions to use it easly, so I will post discussion after the tool will be released.
It will probably work for draft objects too !

EzDxf is a python library/package(MIT licence) that provide good functions to create/write dxf files. A member told me it's existance, and I tried.

Just for reference, Arch is built on top of Draft. Arch actually uses the Draft routines to export DXFs and do many other things, so that's why I suggest adding the code directly to Draft.

OK no problem vocx, thanks for the information.
I'm making some tests, and I'll push on my workbench before introduce it in draft
