Arch Remove

Description

The Add tool allows you to do 4 kinds of operations:

The counterpart of this tool is the Arch Remove tool.

A box added to a wall as a component.

Usage

  1. Select the objects to be added together. The last object selected will be the host Arch object.
  2. Press the button, or use Arch Add from the top menu.

Scripting

See also: Arch API and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.

The Add tool can be used in macros and from the Python console by using the following function:

addComponents(objectsList, host)
The above code snippet adds the given objects in objectsList to the given host object.
Note: objectsList can be a single object or a list of objects.

Example:

import FreeCAD, Arch, Draft, Part

p1 = FreeCAD.Vector(0, 0, 0)
p2 = FreeCAD.Vector(2000, 2000, 0)

Line = Draft.makeWire([p1, p2])
Wall = Arch.makeWall(Line, width=150, height=2000)

p3 = FreeCAD.Vector(0, 2000, 0)
p4 = FreeCAD.Vector(3000, 0, 0)

Line2 = Draft.makeWire([p3, p4])
Wall2 = Arch.makeWall(Line2, width=150, height=2000)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()

Arch.addComponents(Wall2, Wall)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()
