On the TechDraw_Module page I see a new paragraph "Extension Package". What is that?
EDIT:
OK found it.

Thank you for improving my first attempts in wiki.
Re: [ Solved ] Extension Package: what is that?
There is some confusion about the names of the commands. The name of the command, the name of the wiki page, and the name of the icon should all be the same.
It seems likely that "Extension" part will be dropped from the name in the future. Why not do that right now?:
TechDraw_Extension_ThreadHoleSide -> TechDraw_ThreadHoleSide

Re: [ Solved ] Extension Package: what is that?
I agree with you.
The TechDrawTools.FCMacro has more than 30 tools. I plan to implement all of them in C++. Dont know how much success I will have.
The naming problems occured, because I was told that my filename CommandTools.cpp should be replaced by CommandExtensionPackage.cpp.
I try to use the following names: (where XXX is the name of the tool)
C++ command: CmdTechDrawExtensionXXX.cpp
Icon (in wiki or C++): TechDraw_ExtensionXXX.svg
Example picture in wiki: TechDraw_ExtensionXXXExample.png
Subpage in wiki: TechDraw_Extension_XXX
One icon (TechDraw_ToolCircleCenterLines.svg) has an old (wrong) name. I did not find a way to rename the file in wiki.
