Re: CADCloud Video introduction

Does it preserve the FreeCAD file format when uploading to the cloud?... If I'm not mistaken, there were some changes introduced to the core XML reader of FreeCAD, to be able to handle the XML data in the cloud. See #2454 . The transmission of data from FreeCAD to the cloud should be without loss o...

Re: CADCloud Video introduction

Really cool! Is this more for sharing big open source projects, or can it be used for a "personal" way to work on the same files from two different locations? And when the files are viewed online, are they triangulated to meshes? It is a cloud storage, you can use it with a team, but also...

Re: Automatic transfer of object name to modied parts PR

...or that the "rename" command can be placed in an Icon or assigned to a key strock. I would appreciate any such advise. I think renaming every single object that you create is in general not necessary. If your model is well structured, you don't need to rename every single intermediate ...

Re: New Icon for Std_Part

... Do you mean something like this?: Yeah, something like that. Maybe inside some box to give the idea of "pieces inside a container". The idea of the gears comes from Catia, by the way. See here, CATIA V5: Copying and Pasting Tips . What they call "Product" would be more or le...

Re: Surface Workbench icons improvement

What about this? Can the green be a bit darker, or the fill not white? As I said, I'm not super happy about the light colors. The design looks good, I think choosing the colors is a bit of fine tuning and personal preference. If I design icons I also compile the software with them to see how they l...

Re: Bugs/Issues Blocking v0.19 Release (+ WB/Addon devs check-in about Roadmap for 0.19 release)

Checking in with all active workbench devs, how are things going in regards to v0.19 release? ... Except for 4416 ( Draft_Draft2Sketch problem), I don't think Draft and Arch have major issues. This bug only affects certain shapes in an imported SVG, so it's not extremely critical, although it defin...

Re: makePipeShell() method usage

... `makePipeShell()` method only accepts four arguments: profile shape list, makeSolid flag, isFrenet flag, and transition integer. Mmm. Chris_G mentions something interesting. It seems there are two types of pipe shells. One is a method of the Part.Wire objects. >>> Part.Wire.makePipeShell <metho...

Re: SVG cannot be converted to a sketch

It's indeed the same issue, only my testfile is much simpler. Is there already a ticket? I did not open a ticket about it because I've had it in my mind for a long time; I opened the thread above precisely to document these issues. Besides, it's not like we have a ton of Draft programmers who can a...
