I was playing around with Part_SimpleCopy. It seems that it creates a single part object. It doesn't copy the sketches... etc.. (I played briefly with the sub-options... I can't see a use case where this would be useful to me. I might be missing something. My use is to have a dumb object with no in...

* Refine = true (data of a feature) can hide useless lines in your model. * Rounded centered rectangle = Rounded rectangle + 1 symmetry * I have reverse engineering your object too : I(ve translated your objecty to a Part_SimpleCopy then created my onw construction. "Refine" is interestin...

Your sketches can be more simple. Yes they could. ;) I was looking reverse engineer some worn cardboard hardware storage boxes for my shop, and get rid of some filament that I don't like, so my workflow was a little different than designing something from scratch. (I would be the first to admit tha...

Hello, I'm a long time Freecad user and I seem to be having issues selecting elements. I recently update my laptop to ubuntu 22.04 and I had some minor issues, but now things are getting weird... I really don't understand whats going on and it's starting to drive me a bit nuts. I thought it might ha...

Finally, I got it working the way that I want. I refactored the code a bit and pushed it to my fork. Basically, if there are no customizations done in infoKeys.py clicking on part lists all will work. I have some heavy personal customization that's not for everyone but it should be easily not to use...

for PartInfo : PartRef (or PartId), PartName, PartDescription, Revision, ProjectName, ProjectRef (or ProjectId), Author, Material,... all user-input strings. Can be hard-coded into PartInfo.py to begin-with, and use templates if present. See screenshot from SolidWorks part properties: for BoM: add ...

I would like to separate PartInfo and BoM . First make a PartInfo that is really usable, and only then try to make a generic BoM function. Your PartId idea is a good one, but nothing will insure that it's unique. It should be possible to test for uniqueness using Document Path/Name and inside there...

(This comment sparked a little internal debate in my head resulting in this mind dump. ) How I made my production is not a matter FreeCAD could take in account, user has to specify what "Stock piece" he want to use, as it could depend on what "production process" the shop is usin...
