I'm still learning FreeCAD, mostly use PartDesign, and sometimes have to switch to Part WB to do some tasks. So, I dont think it is very basic, has almost all the features PartDesign has... I'm reading a lot of posts here on the forum, and I see that a lot of people complain about this duplication, it feels kind of strange to switch to another WB to do some task. I absolutely love the Sketcher -> PartDesign workflow . But I do mostly mechanical drawings, I'm not aware of different workflows for other usecases.vocx wrote: ↑Sun Jan 12, 2020 9:46 pm The Part workbench is mostly a workbench with basic functions that implement the core features of the OpenCASCADE kernel. The Part Workbench is very basic. It is not meant to be too complex.
Also, I was thinking about code maintenance. Having two tools to do the same job implemented in different ways is costly to support...
