jonathankoren™I really want to use #FreeCad, but when you can't even get it draw a fucking square centered at the origin...
It's just not fucking worth dealing with famous FOSS UX.
FinnAs a medium advanced FreeCAD newbie I sometimes do mistakes which are quite annoying later.
Months ago I made a small DIY antenna adapter, just some padded circles. Those circles had a constrain for the origin's center. Could duplicate and move that body without things being broken. Tried to delete the constrains and replace them by constrains to the body itself, didn't work somehow.
Ouch, lesson learned.

PistonPinWow! I already knew about a few of the new features of #FreeCAD 1.1, but holy guacamole, these are some really high-quality improvements! 🤯

TinxOn this stormy #FreeCADFriday, why not check your broom and fix the handle if necessary? You might need it to sweep away the windblown leaves. 🍃

Dr Footleg (he/him)I gave mechanisms in the Assembly workbench another try in the newly released #FreeCAD v1.1 but sadly it still completely breaks all the joints when you try to move a part in a mechanism like this. Am I missing a trick here?

Made with FreeCAD.
concretedog@freecad my #freecadfriday is a bit of a cheat, I ran a #FreeCAD workshop last night and had 2 new people rock up with Win11 machines and fresh first time ever installs of FreeCAD 1.1. We all modelled a coffee scoop together and they had a great experience with no real issues. Awesome! And we #3Dprinted our scoops as well!
