Re: gNucleus : Generate FreeCAD models by GenAI
We are eager to hear your thoughts and suggestions. 1. Do not put your models in a place that requires registration (GrabCAD) 2. Do not promote a service that also requires registration (your own site) Please upload the FreeCAD model of your flange generated by your system onto this forum so we can...

Re: gNucleus : Generate FreeCAD models by GenAI
Proof of the pudding is in the eating. Please, gNucleusAI, command your botty and you yourself upload the FreeCAD file for the weld neck flange using the exact dimensions shown in your screenshot. Note that your Y dimension is smaller than your C dimension. The weld neck flange is a good example: th...

Re: Regression on Sketcher Points
How should such a button behave when Sketcher ToggleConstruction is clicked without having an element selected? Right now (0.21.1), the point button alone among the Sketcher buttons is immune/agnostic to the ToggleConstruction button and as you say, the only way you can toggle a point is to select ...

Re: DXF importing issues (not showing text / dimensions)
The three files you have uploaded do not contain any dimensions or text. Look at the file size. Open the file in Notepad or similar and read through it. You do not need to understand dxf to gain a rough idea of what is in the files (if you think the file should contain "fred" as text and &...

Re: Regression on Sketcher Points
It can always be a preference to satisfy everyone. Could it be a cascading sticky button (is that the correct term?) like the two modes of arc creation and the two modes of circle creation? In both those cases, the icon changes according to the option selected, so the point could turn from red to b...

Re: How to rotate a sketch drawing
If the cross and the teeth are in the same sketch, you have to redraw one or the other at the correct angle relative to the one or the other. It would be easier to put the cross and the teeth into two different sketches. Then you can rotate the sketch itself. For what you show, it would be easiest t...

Re: How to use App::PropertyColorList
Where can I check the naming conventions? This is about as close as you can get: https://wiki.freecad.org/Property_editor#Scripting "Properties follow the CapitalCamelCase or PascalCase convention, meaning that each word starts with a capital letter, and there are no underscores. When the prop...

Re: Metal Bending, adjust angle of end
I think he is saying he wants to slice off or chamfer the edge of the metal so it butts tightly to the piece above.
The FreeCAD equivalent of an angle grinder.
Draw a rectangular sketch where the orange and blue lines are its top and bottom edges and pocket through all.

Re: Constrain as currently laid out?
As the sketch has 4-way symmetry, an alternative is to draw only 1/4 of it using the polyline tool with the M switch (four lines and two arcs). For anything you draw that is a combination of lines and circular arcs, polyline is very good. Four dimensions, constrain the big arc centre to the Y-axis a...

Re: Fast/Efficient textured surfaces ?
With Draft Array... I typed that in my post, but then when you go to Draft, Array in the Wiki, it tells you it is obsolete and to use Draft, OrthoArray. I think the Wiki needs some clarifying or updating (e.g. draft, array should automatically redirect to draft, orthoarray) as 'draft, array' is a m...
