Note that you must select in the freeCAD tree the objects you want to export. Freecad allows the import and export in this format, with quite a range of settings. This is indeed the most widely used format, common and used for 3D printing.Īlthough freeCAD does not directly manage the mesh modeling, it is capable to produce mesh for export, making it particularly effective for 3D printing. It is also possible, when you export the file, to convert your modeling in a file defined by a mesh, such as STL. Thus, simply select one of these formats in the drop down menu at the time of saving the file. (I'm working in Part Design, not Draft, though I could switch to Draft.FreeCAD works on a NURBS system, which allows to record easily your modeling in STEP or IGES format. I'd be glad to post my file somewhere if you or anyone else would know what to look for in it.Īs to your second method, what workbench and tool can be used to draw a line that is 16" long. Of course, there could also be a problem in the Gui object. What I finally decided was that the internal representation of the document was somehow "gummed up", so I began learning to use the Python terminal to list out the objects in the App object. I tried saving and reopening the file, rotating the object to try to access a vertex on the side or bottom, and repeatedly selecting a previously-used edge or vertex, toggling the Construction Mode icon, then trying to apply External Geometry to that edge or vertex. The problem was that the entire existing object was seen as "forbidden" by the External Geometry function. Then I ran into the problem that External Geometry stopped working. This worked great for about five more studs.
I used the External Geometry function to expose a vertex at the last stud and added a distance constraint. I actually puzzled out your first method just after I posted.
