I really want to tackle this in FreeCAD tooat some point.. But thinking of doing the other way round: users model the spaces themselves. It's possible to derive spaces from bounding walls already, but

That question is for https://forum.freecadweb.org/

What are the thoughts of having an "OSArch" badge, that projects and companies can place on their websites to indicate that they are in support of OSArch initiatives? I would love to

Love the questions. FreeCAD definitely should get representation, as the very first FOSS BIM application that I am aware of. Ping @yorik. No problem supporting QCAD CE.

Ralph Grabowski ( https://www.upfrontezine.com/ ) is ready to do a story about OSArch. It'd be nice to do it in a way that reflects we are a community. I guess we could do him, me and maybe one of you

Congrats to all students helping push open source CAD, CAM, and BIM: Amanjot Singh (BRL-CAD), Shiv Charan Sharma (FreeCAD), Artur Tomczak (IfcOpenShell), Vikram Atreyapurapu (BRL-CAD), Singh @Prabhat

Besides FreeCAD and BlenderBIM I use this https://support.bimcollab.com/en/zoom/free-ifc-viewer on a daily base (at least an hour a day). On linux this one if ifcopenshell has problems: https://ifcqu

FreeCAD is in the same business as BlenderBIM (edition). I opened the model2 (took some time). If you save the IFC file as FreeCAD file, then you can create a new FreeCAD file and using ArchReference

Busy implementing .pat-based hatching in FreeCAD, btw. Indeed would be nice to export that to ifc.. i would really like some day to try supporting 2d better too

I hope that freecad is next ?

Also a ping for @yorik (FreeCAD) and @marcin_ose (OSE)

Freecad and Archipack were part of the plan so I'll pursue those aswell, thanks for the suggestion.

If you're after a solution that works today, look at FreeCAD with @yorik - where the Techdraw workbench for drawing generation is much, much more mature, or Archipack Blender Add-on with @stephen_l -

I feel like all users should be able to navigate from a tag list like that, I think that's what the All Tags widget does? If that's what the widget does and the it might be worth a try. I think it's j

Other random thought was inspired by @sanderboer in FreeCAD forum who says FreeCAD/ OpenCascade do some surfacing that he just can't achieve in Rhino (and probably not with Catia, Grasshopper etc. Fr

Graphic design has not been a priority in the FreeCAD project. And artists are not big fans and users of this kind of software, either. Anyway, I agree with you about a good image is needed to communi

Added FCStd now. Had to edit ./includes/libs/mime/MimeMap.php to add fcstd to the array of extensions belonging to application/zip.

I didn't know that. Very nice. Worked for me with WebGL but not X3D which I think is also WebGL? Might be worth adding together with FCStd format for some files so people without FreeCAD can look at t

@baldash you can do it within an app like Blender or FreeCAD, or via a more barebones viewer such as the Qt 3D viewer: https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/blob/v0.6.0/src/ifcopenshell-python/
