FreeCAD Parametric Modeling Tutorial

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Finally I get it!

Is it possible to explain how to use a dimension of an sketch object to determine the value of another dimension - even a dimension from a different sketch of a separate body or part? I don't mean from a spreadsheet, but from the objects sketch itself. For example I have a sketch with a dimension that I label 'length' in its reference box when I type in its value. In a separate part I want a dimension in that part to be twice as log as the length of that 1st part. Without using a spreadsheet - can I set the dimension in the 2nd part to be " 2 x Part1.Length "?

You can reference external geometry. Check out our Shape Binder tutorial. Hope this helps. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpWUfmCChMmmes0

@@321StepBySteptTutorials Thank You. I did finally figure it out (i had trouble because I'm brand new to FreeCad) but u can directly reference any 'constraint' no matter where it is if u type a name in the 'reference' box in the window u enter the value in. Such as 'SketchName.Constraint.Length' where 'Length' is the name u gave the constraint (and its case sensitive). On the other hand it took me forever to figure out how to reference a Pad Dimension. I will check out the video since I am not up of shapebinder .. Again Thanks

Ottimi tutorial complimenti, pero le immagini sono sempre sfuocate, almeno per quello che vedo io. saluti.
