While Stripe doesn't support monthly donations, you can still become a sponsor! Simply make a one-time donation equivalent to 12 months of support, and you'll gain access to the corresponding sponsoring tier. It's an easy and flexible way to contribute.

If you are not sure or not able to commit to a regular donation, but still want to help the project, you can do a one-time donation, of any amount.

Choose freely the amount you wish to donate one time only.

You can support FreeCAD by sponsoring it as an individual or organization through various platforms. Sponsorship provides a steady income for developers, allowing the FPA to plan ahead and enabling greater investment in FreeCAD. To encourage sponsorship, we offer different tiers, and unless you choose to remain anonymous, your name or company logo will be featured on our website accordingly.

from 1 USD / 1 EUR per month. You will not have your name displayed here, but you will have helped the project a lot anyway. Together, normal sponsors maintain the project on its feet as much as the bigger sponsors.

from 25 USD / 25 EUR per month. Your name or company name is displayed on this page.

from 100 USD / 100 EUR per month. Your name or company name is displayed on this page, with a link to your website, and a one-line description text.

from 200 USD / 200 EUR per month. Your name or company name and logo displayed on this page, with a link to your website and a custom description text. Companies that have helped FreeCAD early on also appear under Gold sponsors.

Instead of donating each month, you might find it more comfortable to make a one-time donation that, when divided by twelve, would give you right to enter a sponsoring tier. Don't hesitate to do so!

Choose freely the amount you wish to donate each month.

Please inform your forum name or twitter handle as a notein your transfer, or reach to us, so we can give you proper credits!

Description

The BIM Views Manager is a dockable window that opens below the normal Tree View, that contains all the Building Parts and Working Plane Proxies of your model in the top part. Drawing Views and TechDraw Pages are listed in the bottom part.

The aim of this window is to allow you to quickly access your levels and working plane configurations, without the need to navigate the tree to find them. It also enables accessing existing pages and drawings.

The BIM Views Manager

Usage

The BIM Views Manager will show all the levels (building parts) and working plane proxies of your document. It can be docked anywhere in the FreeCAD interface or be left in a standalone window. Building Parts will also show their level (the Z-coordinate of their placement).

  • Clicking the BIM Views Manager button in the Status Bar shows or hides the BIM Views Manager.

Top part

  • Clicking any entry selects the corresponding object.
  • Double-clicking the height of a level allows you to edit it.
  • Double-clicking the name of any object sets the working plane to it and activates the object introduced in 1.1. If the Restore View property of the object is set to True, and a view configuration has been stored in it, that viewpoint is also restored.
  • The BIM Views Manager top half has a right-click context menu with the following options:
    • Activate activates a selected level.
    • New Level creates a new level.
    • New Working Plane Proxy creates a new working plane proxy.
    • Delete deletes a selected item.
    • Toggle Visibility turns a selected level on/off (same as the Space bar).
    • Isolate turns all levels off except the selected one.
    • Save View Position stores the current view settings in the selected object, allowing to restore it if its Restore View property is set to True.
    • Rename allows you to rename a selected object.

Bottom part

  • Double-clicking a drawing orients the 3D view to the drawing.
  • Double clicking a page opens or activates the page tab.
