Hi @mangelozzi
I 've added to
the feature to create boxes or cylinders using dimensions as in scale values of wrl model
This feature will be triggered only if the wrl models have the following names:
- box_mcad.wrl
- cylV_mcad.wrl
- cylH_mcad.wrl
if the kicad StepUp tools will parse these special names, correspondent models will be generated in FreeCAD using the dimensions as per the scale values indicated in the kicad_pcb file.
the 3 special wrl models are in the “shapes” folder of the demo project, or just download them from here
cylV_mcad.zip (2.8 KB)
cylH_mcad.zip (2.7 KB)
box_mcad.zip (407 Bytes)
that should add the ability to use simple generic shapes to generate bounding box like ECAD and MCAD models…
Please test it downloading the latest version of Kicad StepUp here
https://sourceforge.net/projects/kicadstepup/files/latest/download
and give me a feedback if that fulfill your request
