Macro WorkFeatures

Description
Tool utility to create plans of the axes, planes from 3 points, axes on a form, information on the coordinates of the shape and many other useful features to facilitate the creation of your project. This utility is up next in the combo view.

Work Features

Tag Origin




 * Tag Origin
 * : Create at origin: a point and X,Y and Z axis and XZ,XY and YZ planes.

Tag Points




 * Tag Points
 * : Create a Point at center location of all selected Object(s).
 * : Create a Point at mid point location of each selected Line(s).
 * : Create Points at start and end location of each selected Line(s).

Tag Boxes




 * Tag Boxes
 * : Create bounding boxes around each of selected object(s).
 * : Create one bounding box around all of selected object(s).

Script
Download the file compressed here WorkFeatures_2014_12_23.zip

you must unzip the zip and copy all the files in your macro directory.

1 : click Menu > Macro > Macros or the click the bottom "Open a dialog to let you execute a macro Recorded"



2 : one dialog box open

3 : The address of "Macro destination" (here C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD\)

In Ubuntu, this is normally /home/your_user_name/.FreeCAD
