Nothing better, on a rainy sunday, than work on freecad...

Can you point me to the code where you build up the scene graph? Sure, the python feature definitiion is in src/Mod/Draft/Draft.py at line 707, and the command that creates it is in the same file at line 1678... The only real difference with yours is that it supports the snapping mode of the draft ...

Ok the icons are done: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/free-cad/index.php?title=Artwork In blender there is a quite beautiful tree that also use a selectable/unselectable icon... If you have blender around check the outliner window. I also made another icon for the measurement tool, if you wan...

What did you guys think of the draft dimension? It does more or less the same job... And you can place it quite precisely. The only small problem I have is to orient the dimension text so it is well aligned with the dimension "bridge". I have to look at how 3D text is oriented. And of cour...

If you make me a Icon for that, we have a deal! ;) Deal! No, the attributes can be accessed directly. In the meantime I have compiled pivy here and it is as simple as: from pivy import coin node=coin.SoType.fromName("SoFCSelection").createInstance() node.documentName.setValue("Hello ...

Cool, pretty useful for "locking" objects... One day when one of you has the time, it would be cool to have an icon in the tree for showing/setting the selectable state Talking about selection, it would be cool one day to be able to select/preselect python features... How do the selection ...

Hi Jean-Christophe, The dimension tool still has some problems when displayed in 3D (The dimension text is not correctly aligned) but it IS precise, if you take your measurement points correctly (that is, in most cases, snapping to vertices). For translating the documentation, I think the wiki has e...

BTW, in the meantime I have implemented printing and writing to PDF files for 3d view and drawing view. You almost make it sound like it is nothing at all ;) That's just excellent, I guess the whole printing operation can now be easily transferred to acrobat... Ah, I have this error at compile, but...

Mhhhh, I dont think I fully understand your problem :? The PartView does a projection of the TopoShape, it dont change the origion ( I think). Is that your problem? Sorry, I got totally fooled by the Y coordinate inversion and I saw a problem where there isn't any. I just checked once again and ind...

What would you think, besides the XY, XZ and YZ buttons, to have a "View" that would pick a plane passing through (0,0) and perpendicular to the camera axis? I just implemented it actually, if it's ok for you. I'm thinking the lock-Z button still has its utility, when you work only in 2D ...
