Feature request: interference check

Post by henkjan_nl »

It would be super useful for me to do mechanical interference checks for my 3D printing projects.

Some time ago, I copied some code from an earlier assembly workbench to do this:

https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?p=460082

The code is not working well if bodies are inside parts with translated coordinates. Would be great to have a well working interference checker. Can anyone help me out?

Kindest regards
