{{Hint|'''FreeCAD is open source Computer Aided Design (CAD) software that OSE uses on a regular basis to produce 3D designs, fabrication drawings, exploded part diagrams, and other assets indispensable to the design of physical objects}}

=Basics=
*A [[FLOSS]] [[CAD]] software
*It is currently (as of 2020) OSE's official CAD software
*It is also a part of [[OSE Linux]] v1.0 (using FreeCAD 0.16) in OSE's custom Linux distribution

=Most Recent Versions=
* "The latest bug fix release 0.18. 4 (16146) "

{{RightTOC}}

=FreeCAD Downloads=

{{Hint|The [[OSE Linux]] distribution is a complete distribution which includes all development software for OSE, and FreeCAD is a staple of that stack}}

See http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Download to choose the correct build for your Operating System.

== FreeCAD 0.16 AppImage ==
*The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AppImage AppImage] is available to download on the [https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases/tag/0.16 FreeCAD GitHub page for the 0.16 release].
*Alternatively, click the below link to download the AppImage directly from the FreeCAD repo:
**[https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases/download/0.16/FreeCAD-0.16.6712.glibc2.17-x86_64.AppImage FreeCAD-0.16.6712.glibc2.17-x86_64.AppImage]

===FreeCAD 0.16 Appimage Notes===
Hi Marcin,
I just tested my workbench with an Appimage.
https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases/download/0.18.4/FreeCAD_0.18-16146-Linux-Conda_Py3Qt5_glibc2.12-x86_64.AppImage and the recent version https://github.com/rkrenzler/ose-piping-workbench.
The workbench works. I assume that PyQt5 could be a reason for the problem.
When I started to develop ose-piping-workbench I used the old Version of PyQT then I ported the workbench to the new version. Maybe this is the reason why it worked before but it does not work anymore.
Best regards,
Ruslan

==Action Plan==

* Recruit software developer to analyze FreeCAD and build with/upon their work. Short-term Objective: Get Assembly Module Working.
* Document FreeCAD source code in github repository.
* Document FreeCAD's code structure. (some preliminary work available at https://github.com/qingfengxia/FreeCAD_Mod_Dev_Guide)

=OSE FreeCAD Documentation=

I (Mark Norton) have created a very simply, introductory guide to FreeCAD. It only covers the very basics at this point, but we can expand on it as needed. - [[User:Mjn]]

[[File:FreeCAD-3.pdf]]

This document covers the following topics:

* Views
* Workshops
* Sizing a Primitive Part
* Positioning a Part
* Making a Cut
* Combining Parts
* Rotating a Part
* Extrusion

See also, FreeCAD Documentation and Tutorials [http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/free-cad/index.php?title=Main_Page].

=OSE FreeCAD Requirements=
For OSE to use FreeCAD for all of its design needs, these are the functions required. Do these exist? Please comment.

*Freehand drawing of shapes and extrusion (like Sketchup).[[Image:check.png]]
*Adding parameters to all of the shapes, so they can be modified. [[Image:check.png]]
*Modifying all parameters in 3D parametrically (typing in lengths) [[Image:check.png]]
*Modifying all parameters in 3D with the mouse (such as dragging corners, edges, and faces)

[https://github.com/ickby Response from FreeCAD developer ickby]: "This is not possible and will not be in the future. This kind of behavior needs quite advanced back-end functionality which is not provided by our geometric modeling kernel"

*Adding parameters in 3D parametrically (boolean operations)? [[Image:check.png]]
*Adding parameters in 3D by drawing them and extruding (mouse-based boolean operations)
*Adding parameters to shapes in 3D parametrically (such as drawing in new objects parametrically)?
*Adding parameters to shapes in 3D manually (such as drawing in new objects with a mounse)?
*For multiple objects, moving them with the mouse to arrange, mate, align them.

[https://github.com/ickby Response from FreeCAD developer ickby]: "That is not yet possible. The assembly workbench is in a very early design phase and still needs quite some time. That is true for basic functionality and integration into freecad workflows."

*Grouping and ungrouping objects into assemblies?

[https://github.com/ickby Response from FreeCAD developer ickby]: "not yet but will be possible with upcoming assembly workbench"

*Maintaining parametric nature of grouped objects?

[https://github.com/ickby Response from FreeCAD developer ickby]: "not yet, but will be possible with the upcoming assembly workbench"

Now for interoperability with other CAD packages:

*Importing multiple new objects into a drawing - one at a time?

[https://github.com/ickby Response from FreeCAD developer ickby]: 'currently you can only import whole files, not individual objects from a file'

*Importing multiple objects into a model - all at one time? [[Image:check.png]]
*Importing new objects while passing the parametric values into FreeCAD, such as with a STEP file?

=Contributors and Users=
From Kostas:
*Jürgen Riegel is the project founder, working for Daimler Chrysler, his free time is probably limited https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/free-cad/index.php?title=User:Jriegel ''Update: Jurgen has not been active on the project for many years now. [[User:Kunda|Kunda]] ([[User talk:Kunda|talk]]) 13:46, 4 August 2018 (UTC)''
*Werner Mayer is the most active developer in terms of commits, he is just awesome, I don't know what he does professionally but if some funding can get him to increase the time of his participation, this would definitely be a great investment of financial resources.
*Yorik is our architect: http://yorik.uncreated.net and he is already dedicating a lot of hours in the development of FreeCAD, since he is a free lancer he is probably quite flexible with time, so maybe he could implement special feature requests for FreeCAD even on a paid basis. FYI [https://www.patreon.com/yorikvanhavre Yorik van Havre] has a Patreon account.
*j-dowset, joined FreeCAD recently and has done a great work on improving blueprints creation in FreeCAD. A very appropriate task for him would be to implement a correct dimensioning system for blueprints. I believe he has the capabilities to implement any kind of feature with relatively short running in time and high quality. ''Update: User is dormant [[User:Kunda|Kunda]] ([[User talk:Kunda|talk]]) 13:46, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
''*mrlukeparry is quite experienced with Qt and Coin3D so he can do a lot of GUI work. Being a student his free time is probably also limited except school vacations. ''Update: he left and returned but hasn't been active at all in the code or community [[User:Kunda|Kunda]] ([[User talk:Kunda|talk]]) 13:46, 4 August 2018 (UTC)''
*Ickby has worked on a prototype for applying assembly constraints between parts. A special task for him would be to accelerate the implementation of the Assembly module after jriegel has finished with the basic framework/structure/design. ''Update: Ickby has not been very low key for some time. He participates in the forums but has not contributed to the code in a long time, at least not publically. This may change. [[User:Kunda|Kunda]] ([[User talk:Kunda|talk]]) 13:46, 4 August 2018 (UTC)''
*tanderson69 is very good in OpenCascade, so he can work on difficult tasks that have to do with the CAD geometry kernel. ''Update: Participates on the forum and very sporadically on the code. I believe he is involved in another project.''
*Daniel Falck is the person to contact for CAM integration.
