Sketcher: Clone of Rounded Rectangle doesn't Clone all constraints
I have encountered an issue with Rounded Rectangle in Sketcher that appears similar to the one mentioned here https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/issues/7997 . If I select all the geometry of a constrained Rounded Rectangle and Clone it, only the corner radius will be linked to the original. The heig...

Re: Best tools/practices for building cable diagrams
WireViz (https://github.com/wireviz/WireViz) can help you document how to wire the cable.PAS_Drafter wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 10:00 pm Not only do I want to make the cable designs, I also need to add line drawings to show the various wire routes and connections.

Re: Fasteners workbench based on screw-maker
I finally patched my fasteners workbench and moved all the US-thingies – I never¹ use – to its own menu. I’m quite sure outside of the U.S.A. and (probably) Canada noone uses these nowadays (for designing) anyway. In Canada, we design with imperial fasteners for products destined for the US market....

Re: [Feature idea] More informative tooltips.
I realize there is a continuing push to make things easier for new users, which is generally good, but at the same time don't make a mess for existing users. +1 Extending the tooltips would also have a bandwidth component. Instead of distributing the whole set and switching it on or off in preferen...

Re: How to draw wire and pins
Hi, I would like to ask you how to draw the picture I am attaching. It is a cable with terminals. How to draw in freecad? Sketcher, draft .. ? I suggest you have a look at WireViz. It's not the same type of drawing, but it may provide the solution you require. https://github.com/formatc1702/WireViz

Re: Fasteners workbench based on screw-maker
Hello, I am trying to use the PEM Self Clinching Standoffs and I am unable to change the length. If I change the length in the Data tab of the Combo View a blue check appears next to the object in the Tree view which then disappears when clicking elsewhere, however the 3D view does not change. Selec...
