File:Filament Extruder Assembly.fcstd Added the Fan plus all the washers, nuts and bolts. Only missing wires, screws for Electronics, and the Welding Blanket. Also updated many files and pictures at the part library.(4 Hours)

Today I tried to explain what I understand about File Simplification, because I see it is not clear enough. Link

As I was all the day without internet, I worked offline on the File:Filament Extruder Assembly.fcstd. There were many things to fix and better detailed parts to add. Still are missing some washers, bolts and nuts for the Flange and motor and the detailed SSR.

Today I followed the process on slide 3 in the working doc. Finished Fasteners and small parts visual diagram for the Big Box Enclosure module, including purchasing links, CAD Files and updated the Part Library and Master Index. Began a visual diagram for the Extruder-Auger-Flange module (slides 9-10) and coordinated with Dixon about what's next. I also asked Alejandro Calegtriminio_log to do a simplified CAD for File:46 Part 20b case.stl.

I will focus on the visual diagram and CAD files for the non electronic parts in the Box and Extruder Module.

Short_Idler_LAI Sample of finished LAI.

Script for getting an iso view:

Install this Macro. How to install macros in FreeCAD.
Open a FreeCAD file with the part you want to extract the isometric view from.(If the wanted part is separated in several smaller parts, go to Part Workbench, select all of those parts and use the tool "Make compound" in the top dropdown menu. In this video I used EPA Workbench for assembling the Universal Idler piece with 2 nuts, then I went to Part Workbench for making compound).
Select the wanted part, by double clicking over it.
Execute the Macro (Can take between 0 and 1.5 minutes)
Double click in the new drawing page called "AutoDrawing".
You can change position and scale for each drawing in the combo view data tab (after selecting the wanted drawing). Recommended scale between 2,00 - 6,00. The smaller the piece, the larger the scale.
Use the tool: "Export a page to a SVG file"(in Drawing Workbench).
Open the SVG file with Inkscape.
Make required fixes to the image using tool: "Edit paths by nodes(F2)".
Export PNG image.

Script for making a LAI document:

Go to Instructionals_Cover_Page click in edit.
Go to File - Make a copy.
Enter the name of the LAI you're working on. Click OK
Share the file with the world.
Fill the template.
Add a new slide. Choose preferred layout.
Insert the PNG image you just exported from Inkscape.
Repeat until you have all the necessary images.
Once you have finished with images, compress(zip) SVG files(those retouched with Inkscape) and upload the zip file to the wiki.
Add a new slide to your LAI document and include links to: Working script (I used D3D_Scripts), FreeCAD Isometric source file, and Inkscape source file (the zip file you just uploaded).
Create a new wiki page with the name of your part.
In your LAI document go to: File - Publlish to the web - Embed. And copy the embedding link.(The link starts with: <iframe...)
In your LAI wiki page go to Edit and insert the embedding link this way: <html>"your link (without quotes)"</html>.
Put a link for editing your LAI document. In the LAI document click in: Share - 'Get shareable link' or 'Copy link'. Put the link in your LAI wiki page this way: ["your link (without quotes)"# Edit].
Share your LAI wiki page in the OSE network group.

File:Iso view.FCMacro Now selected object is copied into a new document and its placement is reseted before the iso views are obtained. This way, the original FreeCAD file doesn't change and the object original placement doesn't affect the iso views placement.
