Generate a Saw file to cut the timber. Still a long way to go.

Sorry for the late reply. Not really know how to answer.

On a old tablet pc:

OS: Windows 10
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.18.16131 (Git)
Build type: Release
Branch: releases/FreeCAD-0-18
Hash: 3129ae4296e40ed20e7b3d460b86e6969acbe1c3
Python version: 3.6.6
Qt version: 5.6.2
Coin version: 4.0.0a
OCC version: 7.3.0

I use ticks2=time.time(), and the program finished in about 30 seconds.But if I try to rotate the model, the mouse icon changed to not ready mode. After about 3 min, I could do rotate, zoom...

How do I check RAM consumption?

Regards

Sorry, not at the moment. It's just read coordinates from a file and draw boxes. Not really useful if you don't have that data file.

I am trying to make command to generate a truss file and design it with Frame3DD.

Do you use Frame3DD on a daily basis? Have you already used Frame3DD?

I am trying to do my daily work with freecad+frame3dd. To see if it is possible.

Only know frame3dd when reading other threads. Tried one example and modified the code to output gmsh's POS file, so i could View the result with gmsh. I need to generate a truss shape in freecad and generate a frame3dd input file at the same time programly.

I want to see the result with freecad at the end. But not sure which way is easy: Read in frame3dd result or
Let frame3dd write out a file which freecad fea wb could View directly.
