Description

This tool converts Draft Wires to Draft BSplines, and vice-versa.

How to use

  1. Select a Draft Wire or a Draft BSpline. The tool is disabled if no object is selected.
  2. Press the Draft WireToBSpline button.

A new object will be created; the original object will not be modified.

Options

There are no options for this tool. Either it works with the selected object or not.

Scripting

See also: Draft API and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.

Not available, but creating a new object with the points from another one is easy, for example:

  • If the active object is a wire:
import FreeCAD,Draft
points = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.ActiveObject.Points
Draft.makeBSpline(points)
  • if the active object is a bspline
import FreeCAD,Draft
points = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.ActiveObject.Points
Draft.makeWire(points)
