2015-03-08 09:41 <whitequark> wpwrak: i've dug into solvespace's geometric engine
2015-03-08 09:42 <whitequark> it uses NURBS surfaces, thus avoiding the problems mesh-based engines like cgal have
2015-03-08 09:43 <whitequark> also "because all unions or subtractions must be constructed on a workplane on top of another solid" this was wrong
2015-03-08 09:43 <whitequark> you can do arbitrary unions or subtractions
2015-03-08 09:43 <whitequark> assuming you've previously correctly constrained the surfaces to be coincident, it will work
2015-03-08 09:43 <whitequark> the really good part is that unlike freecad, solvespace's sketches are fully 3d
2015-03-08 09:44 <whitequark> and it doesn't have a separate "draft" and "assembly" modes
2015-03-08 09:45 <whitequark> i also really like the UI, not to mention it has working undo (unlike freecad) and doesn't randomly segfault (unlike freecad)

2015-03-08 12:49 <wpwrak> (arbitrary unions) good. otherwise, i would constrain the workflow rather extremely

2015-03-08 13:10 <wpwrak> can the thing also be scripted ? that's a nice way to work around bumps in the road

2015-03-08 15:22 <DocScrutinizer05> haha, severe doubts about it http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Die-Tops-und-Flops-des-MWC-2015-2570443.html?hg=1&hgi=16&hgf=true
2015-03-08 15:24 <whitequark> wpwrak: no, no scripting
2015-03-08 15:25 <whitequark> haven't found it necessary so far. what i found it lacking in are a few other things
2015-03-08 15:25 <whitequark> notably:
2015-03-08 15:25 <whitequark> it can't chamfer or fillet edges
2015-03-08 15:25 <whitequark> it can't import /any/ kind of data
2015-03-08 15:26 <whitequark> (well, i didn't need to, so far, but it's obviously limiting)
2015-03-08 15:26 <whitequark> it can't do parametric parts in the sense that you would use the same file and then enter parameters, like "profile X mm long"
2015-03-08 15:26 <whitequark> (i haven't seen many cads that could tho)

2015-03-08 15:27 <whitequark> (scripting) its savefile format is code in a stack based language, you could call it a dialect of forth i guess, that recreates the scene
2015-03-08 15:27 <whitequark> wonder if you could use that
