The mousemove arcs and CW CCW seem to be working out ok. Now comes the fun stuff: To see if I can get the Arc to actually draw out properly as a real freecad object in the pressButton and releaseButton  … Continue reading →

So… I’m going to need how to figure out whether or not I need to go cw or ccw when drawing a polyline arc. So what I need to know if the point “B” is basically about the Tangent line … Continue reading →

      Ok… So I thinking I’m approaching a point where the rubber hits the road…. Or  not… So… What I’m attempting to do is to add an arc to the polyline mode. I came up with a sketch … Continue reading →

I’ve been poking around DrawSketchHandlerArc  (Check around line 700 here) just trying to see how this thing ticks. These notes probably won’t make sense to anyone but me, and probably if I go back to read them later, they won’t … Continue reading →

For some reason I had a Bob Seger sound bouncing around in my head when I wrote that title. Anyway…   Things are not going  flawlessly at the first attempt.. Go figure I need to look at the unaltered code to … Continue reading →

I had an interesting conversations on the irc over the weekend on  this polyline stuff.. Never did make it fishing though, wound up cleaning up the yard and help the daughter capture  butterflies (catch and release) instead. So I need … Continue reading →

      I think I honed on the section of code that needs to draw an arc instead of a polyline, but I wanted to figure out how to trap the letter “a” being depressed… Little “A” are you … Continue reading →
