Re: Are You Serious?

It is not simply a FreeCAD failing. Well works in all my cad apps where you can select sketch profiles together Screen Shot 2021-09-04 at 4.03.25 PM.png freecad simply cannot select sketch profiles or individual edges from a sketch for modeling features. That's not how you make a picatinny rail :lo...

Re: Are You Serious?

Actually, someone has proposed a way to mitigate TNP and it has not been merged with master. Yes it does appear it is taking a long time. Since you chose not to include a file or even version info I can't tell...are all the lines in that sketch lines or construction lines? If none are construction ...

Are You Serious?

Listen, i like FreeCAD. I really do. In fact, I WANT to like FreeCAD. But how can i like something that is fundamentally broken in almost every aspect? It doesn't seem like the dev community cares very much about this project. Last time i checked, the topological naming problem is still a thing some...

Re: Quick Reference Guides (QRG) FreeCAD v.0.19.2

Where can I find more of these quick reference guides? The original QRG were provided by benjant for v0.18. I am simply updating those to v0.19.2. They are essentially a table listing of the commands, icons, and keyboard shortcuts for 14 of the most widely and heavily used workbenches. You can down...

Re: Quick Reference Guides (QRG) FreeCAD v.0.19.2

Re: Quick Reference Guides (QRG) FreeCAD v.0.19.2

Where can I find more of these quick reference guides? I need to grasp a better understanding of the different workbenches and their proper usages rather than just having a rudimentary knowledge of making pads and cutting them out in part design workbench. Are there any advanced tutorials for modeli...
