The layers were often drawn on separate transparent sheets of paper.
#LIBRECAD FILLET MANUAL#
Traditional manual drafting used a similar approach. Layers help organize drawings by allowing users to place and manage related entities. One of LibreCAD’s key features is the ability to use layers. A maximum of eight user defined colors can be added. User defined colors can be modified by right-clicking on a user defined color and selecting a new hue and value. User defined colors are created by clicking the Add button and then selecting the hue and value from the color selection tool. Selecting ”Custom” will allow a selection from a palette of 36 colors and shades of grey or from a user defined colors. If the block’s color is subsequently changed all entities in the block will be assigned the block’s color. When editing a block, selecting ”By Block” will assign the color that was defined for the block to the added entity. If the layer’s selected color is subsequently changed all entities on the layer will be assigned the layer’s color. Selecting ”By Layer” will assign the color that was defined for the layer (see above) to the entity.

The drop-down menu allows the color to be selected ”By Layer”, ”By Block”, from the ”Custom” color selector, or chosen quickly from one of the 16 pre-defined colors: See also: Autogenerated API documentation and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.The color for an entity can be selected from the ”Color” selection drop-down menu. View End Arrow ( Bool): specifies whether to show a symbol at the end of the fillet, so it can be used as an annotation line.View Arrow Type ( Enumeration): specifies the type of symbol displayed at the end of the fillet, which can be Dot, Circle, Arrow, Tick or Tick-2.View Arrow Size ( Length): specifies the size of the symbol displayed at the end of the fillet.Data Start ( VectorDistance): (read-only) specifies the start point of the fillet.Data Length ( Length): (read-only) specifies the total length of the fillet.Data Fillet Radius ( Length): (read-only) radius with which the fillet was created.Data End ( VectorDistance): (read-only) specifies the end point of the fillet.It also has the following additional properties:
#LIBRECAD FILLET UPGRADE#
Since Draft Lines and Draft Wires, can be joined with the Draft Wire command, the Draft Join command or the Draft Upgrade command, this provides an alternative method for creating fillets and chamfers.Ī Draft Fillet object is derived from a Part Part2DObject and inherits all its properties. A Draft Wire that has at least three points can be filleted or chamfered by changing its Data Fillet Radius or Data Chamfer Size respectively.Only Draft Lines, that is Draft Wires with only two points, are supported at the moment.A Draft Fillet cannot be edited nor is it linked to the lines that were used to create it.Press Esc or the Close button to abort the command.If you have selected one of the two previous options: Click in the Fillet radius input box.

Optionally check the Delete original objects option.Note that the command will not succeed if the radius or the chamfer size is too large for the selected lines. If the Create chamfer option is selected this will be the size of the chamfer (the length of the straight edge). Select the Drafting → Fillet option from the menu.There are several ways to invoke the command:.Select two Draft Lines that meet in a single point.Several fillets and chamfers created between two lines Usage The Draft Fillet command creates a fillet, a rounded corner, or a chamfer, a straight edge, between two Draft Lines.
