Re: Rendering workflow using Blender
Hi all, I just updated both extensions: FreeCAD Importer v 0.0.2 Blender Importer v 0.0.2 In this latest version the workflow between FreeCAD and Blender is quite simple. You must create your model in FreeCAD. Then import your FCStd file into Blender ( FreeCAD Importer ) to create and assign your ma...

Re: Rendering workflow using Blender
Hi all, I need to be able to save the material assignments to the faces of shapes made in Blender in FreeCAD. For this I created a MaterialFaces property which is editable in the Data list under the tree view in FreeCAD. Does anyone know how I can plug in my custom editor when we want to modify this...

Re: Best way to transform Arch to Mesh
Well, this question didn't need to be asked, since in fact Arch objects are seen as Part objects... Sorry for the inconvenience.

Re: Best way to transform Arch to Mesh
It seems that Arch objects (Wall, Window..) inherit the Part::FeaturePython type.
Can we be sure that an object of type Part::FeaturePython has a Shape property?

Re: Best way to transform Arch to Mesh
Hi ProjectBP,
Thank you for this video, but I think I wasn't explicit enough on my question. In fact I am looking to convert Arch objects into Mesh object under python with the FreeCAD API and not with the graphical interface...

Best way to transform Arch to Mesh
Hi all,
I'm looking to import Arch objects into Blender (Mesh)
Not knowing much about Arch and Mesh objects, I'm looking to know the best way to do this?
Thanks.

Re: Rendering workflow using Blender
Hi, I finally managed to serialize / deserialize the Blender materials configuration, which makes it possible to integrate all the materials configuration done in Blender into an .FCStd file. It is even possible by starting from an empty Blender file and finding all its material configuration only f...

Re: Rendering workflow using Blender
Well apparently I don't need the .FCMat files since I can create a Render material from a .blend file. On the other hand I haven't yet found how to assign an RGBA value to a Disney parameter like Render.Disney.BaseColor. In fact I have a problem with the data format that I don't know and the list of...

Re: Rendering workflow using Blender
IMHO, you should avoid sarcastic comments, it might hurt people who have worked hard to make FreeCAD like you can see it now - though still improvable. If such comments could offend people, I apologize, that was not my intention. Well I can manage DiffuseColor per face, I haven't tried with very ...

Re: Rendering workflow using Blender
howetuft I can now create as much Material in FreeCAD as I find material in the Blender file (in fact I made a pull request to correct a small bug with make_material() see issue #327 ). But I haven't found how I can transfer the Disney Principled BSDF settings. In order to get feedback from the wor...
