FreeCAD (Daniel Falck, Brad Collette)

Solid Modeling with the power of Python with this book and ebook.Key FeaturesLearn something new in an Instant! A short, fast, focused guide delivering immediate results.Packed with simple and interesting examples of python coding for the CAD world.Understand FreeCAD's approach to modeling and see how Python puts unprecedented power in the hands of users.Dive into FreeCAD and its underlying scripting language.Book DescriptionFreeCAD is a general purpose platform for CAD development. It can be extended to use different workbenches to solve different problems. Targeted squarely at the engineering community, FreeCAD is an open source design application built to be extended. Python, the powerful scripting language, is woven deeply into FreeCAD's DNA and gives users unprecedented power to automate and invent."FreeCAD [How-to]" is a lean, fast tour of FreeCAD's major workbenches and design philosophy. The reader will get a hands-on introduction to several modeling techniques and learn how Python makes macro automation and design possible.FreeCAD allows users to design in a variety of ways; from drawing 2D designs as lines and circles to combining primitive solids into complex 3D shapes. Objects can even be created or modified by code you write in Python. FreeCAD even allows power users to extend the application itself with new dialogs, panels, and scripts. This book will not only show you how to get started using FreeCAD in a traditional GUI mode, but will teach you how to harness its powerful scripting language for more power.What you will learnCreating 3D solid objects with python2D draft design and constraint modelingTurning 2D drawings into 3D objectsCombining simple primitives into complex solidsRecording MacrosCreating objects with codeImporting and exporting dataCreating a Custom python dialog to automate a taskHarnessing the constraints engine with pythonИздательство Packt PublishingМягкий переплетОбъем - 70 стр.Формат - 205x260 мм.ISBN 9781849518864Год издания: 2012
