Hello, finally I found a work in real world to use FreeCAD, but I work in Electrical design and I do not found much info for FREECAD, I wish to know if possible create a MEP section in this forum to at least to start any serious development related to MEP.

Is there any method to draw 2 objects (block1 block2), but only show one that meet the condition (if else statement)?

I mean, something like

if (building1 "has no interference with" building2)
then use (block1)
if not (block2)
else (leave empty)

I wish create something like the robotexample.FCStd at the start page but with movement. for this I need 3D constrains.

I wish to use 1D and 2D objects, like: lines and planes (like draft WB objects), but i wish use 3D parametric features like sketch, is this possible?

I only want to announce that I tested today some code since ChatGPT and I can confirm that work. but while more complex is your request more errors leave.

Finally I imported my DWG file to Freecad updating my version to pre-release: OS: Windows 10 Version 2009 Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit Version: 0.21.0.31695 (Git) Build type: Release Branch: master Hash: 64caea207394bb05587c8ffb29b7a3e8696d24df Python 3.10.8, Qt 5.15.6, Coin 4.0.0, Vtk 9.1.0, OCC 7....

with and without legacy appears same error with MESH WB, but only if use ODA converter.


only curiosly, why is need a converter to import dwg/dxf? to what format is converting ODA to do it manually?

Or how to fix Mesh WB?

after many test I found similar performance between FreeCAD and AutoCAD.

is there any alternative or how can I fix Mesh Workbench?? PD: here the error log 14:07:40 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "C:\Users\JTM\AppData\Local\Programs\FreeCAD 0.20\bin\Lib\site-packages\shiboken2\files.dir\shibokensupport\__feature...

the script to import load draft, mesh and part, then appears error with mesh. when I tried to load manuall mesh WB appears error "dll not found" OS: Windows 10 Version 2009 Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit Version: 0.20.2.29177 +426 (Git) Build type: Release Branch: (HEAD detached from 0.20.2)...
