Re: Assembly3 preview
Opened a new assembly, brought in 2 prior created basic parts, disk and taper created in part design 18.135.... Could not select any faces. Now that I know it is being supported I will work on it tommorow and give details. I just tried to create a part in part design and when I went to revolve a square on YZ plane, no part or anything showing.
I noticed also that if I bring a basic shape into assembly the screen does not seem to refresh when I transform the object, where the object was originally stays transparent.
It's late here, tomorrow.
Thanks

Re: Assembly3 preview
Sure, no hurry. Just a guess. Try toggle "Preference->Display->3DView->Use OpenGL Vertex Buffer Object". It sounds like some display problem, and it usually goes away when you disable this option.
Re: Assembly3 preview
I changed to using open GL. Maybe a difference.
My first issue here is that Part Design doesn't work any more. That's a show stopper for me.
Any time I try a new version of Freecad I do this:
Create body, new sketch YZ plane
Draw a square upper left quadrant, revolve it.
When I do that with your version the object disappears.
A side question: What is the planned process for integration of Assembly3.
Are you planning to continue to integrate the latest Freecad version into your builds for years to come or
incorporate Assembly3 into FreeCad at some point. Make it a workbench?
Thanks

Re: Assembly3 preview
Yeah, you found a bug of Part Design revolve. There are most likely more bug like this in Part Design or Part due to my recent addition of topological naming. I'll fix it soon.
I certainly hope my branch of FreeCAD can be merged into master some day.A side question: What is the planned process for integration of Assembly3.

Yes me to. What is holding this up?

Re: Assembly3 preview
Maybe I'm an isolated case but I can't even use assy3 as yet. In regular Freecad I can draw in Part design/sketch mostly all day without error. The screen in regular Freecad is flawless. GL or not. I used assembly2 for awhile with few problems, I got what I needed done.
I hope you can fix these issues. Your options for constraints in the toolbar are many, I am looking forward to assy3.
If there is something I can do to test either of my issues, I wlll.
Assy3 looks almost ready, that last 10% is always a bear. I messed around with Solvespace for awhile, it has some nice constraint features working in 2D.
Thanks for your efforts.

Re: Assembly3 preview
@realthunder, if you consider your work ready, I think you should rebase your branch, if not already, and ask directly to main developers if this can be merged to the FC dev main branch...realthunder wrote: ↑Wed May 16, 2018 10:25 pm I certainly hope my branch of FreeCAD can be merged into master some day.
Only with a bigger user base A3 can be tuned to become stable enough to be daily-used.
FreeCAD daily is a container used to test and tune new features... this can be messed for a while, but only with a big audience, the changes can be tuned.
Part Design Next did a big mess for a long time, but now is a big achievement for FC.
@realthunder has been always very responsive to user's need, fixing very soon any issue and adding even new features on demand.
I think we should take advantage of this new A3 branch that is adding long time desired features.
EDIT: about SolveSpace License issue, the python code can be merged as an Addon WB or as an extra download (as it is for DXF import/export code)
my two cents

Re: Assembly3 preview
Hmm... I didn't ask because my LinkStage1 pull request is still pending in the upstream, and there are quite a few other long pending requests, too. So I figure maybe the main developers are busy at the moment. But, yeah, I think I'll start a new thread and ask them directly, once I finished this step import/export thing at hand. I don't think rebase is going to work now. I always merge with the upstream master before every release, so my branch is not that far behind.
