The extension is ".e57". But thanks for mentioning this. It reminds me I have to check Import_Export.

thanks, added it

if the selectability is disabled for a sketch, it will be displayed in realthudunder

in realthunder you can e.g. transform sketch lines for kinematic operations (robot simulation).

in the master you can display the ids of the sketch elements.


if you could edit that, you could replace sketch elements (e.g. spline with arc) like in solid works and avoid a topo.. problem.
I can't edit the name, is that possible in freecad?

I'm not aware of a possibility to rename these. And I don't see how renaming would fix any TNP issues.

Solidworks has a different approach to naming their entities, so they don't change their numbering inadvertently. Fixing this for FreeCAD is what realthunder's work is all about.

ok, the way the programs work may be different. but no algorithm can find out which sketch element has been replaced by another one. I find the workflow from solidworks useful

draft snap has problems detecting inner edges. realthunder recognizes inner points, so that you can create a line with curves.





from this you can fade in and out with e.g. so create a line.



in the master i can't select the points. does anyone know a possibility (except wireframe)?
