A few paid commits for FreeCAD

Post by NewJoker »

Hi,

I'd like to pay someone interested in implementing something from my list of a few useful features. Those features were already discussed on the forum and they should get accepted without issues once they are well-coded. They are not big functionalities but rather tools of small to medium complexity meant to significantly improve user experience with FreeCAD. Here's the current list (it might be expanded in the near future), please let me know if you are interested in implementing anything from it and we will discuss the details:
- adding the possibility to define keyboard shortcuts for Draft snaps (for some reason they were overlooked):
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=67658
- adding selection filter for Part/PartDesign (the code already exists in the Assembly 4 module and it's just a matter of transferring it to Part/PartDesign):
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 3&start=10
- user beam sections in the FEM workbench - I tried to add this some time ago but failed due to lack of experience:

- rigid body constraint in the FEM workbench:

You may consider to ping some developers who you think may be interested. I'm not sure if all capable developers watch this subforum.

That's definitely a good idea but, to be honest, it's hard for me to say who specifically could be interested. Paid commits seem to be quite rare in this community. The last 2 implementations require some familiarity with the FEM workbench but the other 2 are much more general.

You may ask @jnxd, as he implemented recently the new B-spline stuff.

I already talked with him about this in PM but it seems that he won’t be able to help me.

Indeed, and I'm sorry about that :oops:. I did mention I'll work on the rigid body stuff at least but never got around to it.
My latest (or last) project: B-spline Construction Project.

have you considered asking zolko to upstream his code then?

Hi @NewJoker .

I can work on general beam section, but I am not sure about rigid body constraint.

we can continue technical discussions on related topics.

thanks

This might be a good occasion - @Zolko - could you help in this regard?

That would be a good start for FEM workbench commits. Let's discuss the details in PM.
