Fillet

Draft

Description

The corners of a Draft Wire can be filleted (rounded) or chamfered by changing its ÚdajeFillet Radius property or ÚdajeChamfer Size property respectively. It is also possible to subdivide the edges of a Draft Wire by changing its ÚdajeSubdivisions property.

Wire defined by multiple points

Usage

See also: Draft Tray, Draft Snap and Draft Constrain.

Options

The single character keyboard shortcuts available in the task panel can be changed. See Draft Preferences. The shortcuts mentioned here are the default shortcuts.

Join

Usage

1. The end points of the Draft Lines and/or Draft Wires to be joined must be exactly coincident. If required first adjust points to ensure that this is the case.
2. Select two or more Draft Lines and/or Draft Wires.
3. There are several ways to invoke the command:
   • Press the Draft Wire button.
   • Select the Drafting → Polyline option from the menu.
   • Use the keyboard shortcut: P then L.

Notes

• A Draft Wire can be edited with the Draft Edit command.
• A Draft Wire can be converted to a Draft BSpline with the Draft WireToBSpline command.
• Draft Lines and Draft Wires can also be joined with the Draft Join command or the Draft Upgrade command.

Properties

See also: Property View.

A Draft Wire object is derived from a Part Part2DObject^{1.0 and below} or a Part Feature object^{1.1 and above} and inherits all its properties. It also has the following additional properties:

Data

Attachment

The object has the same attachment properties as a Part Part2DObject.

Draft

• ÚdajeArea (Area): (read-only) specifies the area of the face of the wire. The value will be 0.0 if ÚdajeMake Face is false or the face cannot be created.
• ÚdajeBase (Link)
• ÚdajeChamfer Size (Length): specifies the length of the chamfers at the corners of the wire.
• ÚdajeClosed (Bool): specifies if the wire is closed or not. If the wire is initially open this value is false, setting it to true will draw a line segment to close the wire. If the wire is initially closed this value is true, setting it to false will remove the last line segment and make the wire open.
• ÚdajeEnd (VectorDistance): specifies the end point of the wire.
• ÚdajeFillet Radius (Length): specifies the radius of the fillets at the corners of the wire.
• ÚdajeLength (Length): (read-only) specifies the total length of the wire.
• ÚdajeMake Face (Bool): specifies if the wire makes a face or not. If it is true a face is created, otherwise only the edges are considered part of the object. This property only works if ÚdajeClosed is true and if the wire does not self-intersect.
• ÚdajePoints (VectorList): specifies the points of the wire in its local coordinate system.
• ÚdajeStart (VectorDistance): specifies the start point of the wire.
• ÚdajeSubdivisions (Integer): specifies the number of subdivisions for each edge of the wire. If it is 1 each edge will be divided into 2 equal segments. Subdivisions are applied before chamfers and fillets.
• ÚdajeTool (Link)

• PohledArrow Size End (Length): specifies the size of the symbol displayed at the end of the wire. introduced in 1.1
• PohledArrow Size Start (Length): idem at the start of the wire. introduced in 1.1
• PohledArrow Type End (Enumeration): specifies the type of symbol displayed at the end of the wire, which can be Dot, Circle, Arrow, Tick, Tick-2 or None. introduced in 1.1
• PohledArrow Type Start (Enumeration): idem at the start of the wire. introduced in 1.1
• PohledPattern (Enumeration): specifies the Draft Pattern with which to fill the face of the closed wire. This property only works if ÚdajeMake Face is true and if PohledDisplay Mode is Flat Lines.
• PohledPattern Size (Float): specifies the size of the Draft Pattern.

To create a Draft Wire use the make_wire method (introduced in 0.19) of the Draft module. This method replaces the deprecated makeWire method.

wire = make_wire(pointslist, closed=False, placement=None, face=None, support=None)
wire = make_wire(Part.Wire, closed=False, placement=None, face=None, support=None)

Příklad:

import FreeCAD as App
import Draft

doc = App.newDocument()

p1 = App.Vector(0, 0, 0)
p2 = App.Vector(1000, 1000, 0)
p3 = App.Vector(2000, 0, 0)

wire1 = Draft.make_wire([p1, p2, p3], closed=True)
wire2 = Draft.make_wire([p1, 2*p3, 1.3*p2], closed=True)
wire3 = Draft.make_wire([1.3*p3, p1, -1.7*p2], closed=True)

doc.recompute()
