What's New in FreeCAD - Assembly Workbench

[@PaddyPatrone]

The options to attach parts is all greyed out on mine

[@FliFlaFloppy]

Thanks for the overview! (For future tutorials please tune the music volume down ;) )

[@kozko-xe1xl]

Music too LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!AGRESSIVE,voice is enough or with a tiny low volume sweet music but not this horrific stuff which i'm not calling music...a lot of people are foreigner as i am,not being english first language person it is really difficult to stay focus and understand technical stuff like this,actually without this problem your channel is quite good,straight forward and clear,that is what most people are waiting for,thank you anyway!

[@Cadessentials-dn8rz]

I'm a foreigner myself, English is not my first language. I heard your wishes, I will take them into account

[@123jogger123]

@@Cadessentials-dn8rz Yes, please turn the music much more quietly. And the piano music for the sketcher video is more comfortable. But the rest is perfect - short, compact! Thank you! 🙂

[@kozko-xe1xl]

@@Cadessentials-dn8rz Thanks a lot!sorry for the musical genre criticism,it would not be so invasive with a low volume though but 123jogger is right,better jazzy or classical stuff like i already could ear on your channel i think.Cheers😉

In addition to reducing or removing the background music, please don't "burn-in" the subtitles (render the text as part of the video in your video editor). One thing KZbin is actually good at is proper subtitle/caption support. The huge advantage is that viewers can chose to turn them on or off, along with many other options like size a position that would make them easier to read. KZbin will create automatic translations in several languages for you.

Tolles Video, weiter so.

[@guillaumevincent716]

the ball joint connexion does not work in your exemple, its interfering when moving. the center point on the ball should be mated with then other center point on the cavity on the part

[@Cadessentials-dn8rz]

The workbench is under active development, not everything works perfectly yet

[@paulwesterveld5900]

The background sound (that's definitely no music) is way to loud. Get rid of it, the video doesn't need background sounds.

[@raphaelsteffes4492]

looks amazing

[@jwatkins672012]

Looking forward to the release. Has the Transform tool been improved? I want it to be more versatile like Blenders. Currently we're stuck with the position it defaults to, we need to be able to right click on it and set a different position, such as a vertex, face, or model origin.

[@decootubization]

Step by step ;-) nice!

[@MartinMadin-n4p]

When will this version be available?

[@Cadessentials-dn8rz]

Let's hope they get it done in time this year. You can already download the version in development on Github

[@doudoutadie]

1.0 RC1 has been released a few days ago

[@RebelPhoton]

When you have assembled a few bodies with joints... How can you design a new body that fits around the features of those assembled bodies? Does it have to be done in a different file?

[@Cadessentials-dn8rz]

Components to build can be done individually, each in its own file, or you can do everything in one file. All the bodies for the example in the video were made in one file

[@ElectricGears]

That's called "in context modeling" if you want to search for it and @OficineRobotica has a good video on it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIu4pIGIZ96mZ6s Basically you select the features your new part will be referencing, then create a Sub Shape Binder. Then place a Link to the Sub Shape binder into the file or Body of the new part. Now you can reference the assembled geometry in the new part. The Binder and Link are parametric so changes in the assembly will propagate through to your new part.

[@RebelPhoton]

@@ElectricGears awesome, thanks for the answer. I'll try to reproduce that workflow with the new assembly.

[@noanyobiseniss7462]

In 2013, Jonathan Westhues took the FOSS community by surprise releasing the source code of SolveSpace, his parametric 2D/3D CAD software built around a very capable custom solver. Some 4 years later, Zheng Lei aka “realthunder” created a Python binding for the solver, then used it to create his own assembly workbench for FreeCAD.

[@gurom7]

You didn't make a mistake? I'm using the “realthunder” build where the assembler is “asm3”. The video shows the new assembler.

[@andyabuumar]

did you mean freecad real thunder ? where i can download it ? ​@@gurom7

[@АлексейН-р3т]

Is it future assembly - Assembly 4 now?

[@Cadessentials-dn8rz]

This assembly workbench will be the default and it is not Assembly 4

[@holdendp]

How does he the user drag things? My interface does not let me move items like this guy is.

[@Cadessentials-dn8rz]

This is an assembly workbench, once bodies are added to it they can be moved around

[@feha92]

@@Cadessentials-dn8rz It does not let me move them. Also, it does not color the objects.

[@AWBuilder]

You didn't say what it is used for.

[@danhtrinh1769]

I happen to like the narration and music! People who complain about free things lack class.

[@hopelessnerd6677]

Nope! Couldn't watch the video because of the AI narration and background noise. Triggers my Asperger's. Could have been a valuable video.

[@Cadessentials-dn8rz]

What's stopping you from turning the sound off?

[@MartinMadin-n4p]

geile Musik ;)

[@blandonavera2944]

Music to loud. Not realy useful infomations.

[@rok1475]

Get rid of the background music. It is distracting. Slow down the presentation. Your audience is people that don’t know but want to learn. Flashing things on screen quickly shows you know this but that doesn’t help those who want to learn something
