Re: Add hole or shaft fit - interval limits 0 should be displayed without trailing zeros

I also was unable to set different formats for over and under tolerance. If that's on purpose, then there should be only one format specifier for both. If EqualTolerance is true then the format for OverTolerance should be used for both, and the format for UnderTolerance should be read-only. If Equa...

Re: Issue #5694 Broken View

[1] I need to sneak into my former employers library and see if they have access to DIN/EN/ISO standards. Thank you for the detective work. I think we could talk to the FPA into buying some standards documents, but as I understand the ISO license, each copy can only be used by 1 person at a time, a...

Re: Issue #5694 Broken View

I would think that each break should have their own Sketch in the 3D model (so strictly one break per one sketch, but possibly multiple sketches each describing a single break). That's how the prototype works. Each cut is a sketch with 2 edges parallel to the cut or a single edge perpendicular to t...

Re: Issue #5694 Broken View

You could use the actual geometry in the Sketch for making the break line shape. That way, if the user would make the (nicely shaped) break lines for each cut, you'd be able to use the user-made break lines for both the slicing operation and the actual break line drawing by re-using the geometry di...

See, that's why I talk to you guys. :D

Is that iso standard special or artistic freedom special?

Issue #5694 Broken View

This post is an activity update and invitation for comment. I've been looking into #5694 which is just about the oldest TD bug. I have a prototype broken view mostly working. It is only handling vertical or horizontal breaks. I don't know if oblique breaks are used in real life, but they look diffic...

I just update manually when I feel the need. Things like templates, symbols, line definitions, etc don't change often.

Re: TechDraw ISOmetric view

It appears to me that the ISOmetric representations are derived using the "standard, shortened isometric" scale. Hence my question, can the ISOmetric representations be derived using the "Normal" scale 100% instead? I had to draw myself some pictures to follow this. isometricTru...
