- Minor changes to alignment constraint selection to avoid to create objects just for simple calculations
- Equality constraint of Ellipse, ArcOfEllipse and combinations of those elements
- Bugfix for internalalignment creation of major and minor of ellipse and extension to arcofellipse
- Trim support for ellipses
- Solver threshold for rank calculation set at 1e-13.
- Trim support for arc of ellipse
- Ellipses and ArcOfEllipses as external geometry
- Validate Sketch now supports arcs of ellipse
- Tangents of Ellipse or ArcOfEllipse to any of ArcOfcircle, circle and Ellipse (using construction elements)
- Perpendicularity constraint
- Bug fix: Show/hide internal geometry not working for external geometry
- Visualization of Internal alignment constraints when selecting in the constraint widget
- Equality for ellipses and arc of ellipses
- Fix of internal geometry creation
- Fix swapped negative and positive ends of major radius line on creation
- Removing the fudge factor (no longer needed)
- Fix to restore internal alignment - autodecide on constraint creation which point of the line is closer to the position
- Ellipse introduction button via (center,majaxis extreme, a point in edge), ellipse is always CCW so that Z axis goes in the positive direction of the sketch
- Backwards compatibility with files of previous versions of ellipse not defining a phi angle
- Art by Jim (all the icons you see and the XPMs shown on creation of an ellipse)
- Element Widget support for ellipses
- Box selection for ellipses
- Point on Ellipse constraint based on the gardener's method based on Ulrich's function proposal (radcan simplified, i.e. with simplify_radical sage function)
- Tangent: Ellipse to Line based on DeepSOIC's geometric formulation (radcan simplified)
Sketcher New Feature: Internal Alignment Constraint
- The element to which internal alignment is applied has to be selected last.
- All other elements are added in the order of priority, taking into account existing elements
- Art by Jim (beautiful icons).
Sketcher New Feature: Tool to show/hide/restore the internal geometry of an element
- New functionality for show/hide internal geometry:
toggles between hiding all unused internal geometry elements and showing all internal geometry.
The restore function is implicit to the showing all internal geometry
Sketcher New Feature: Arc of Ellipse support
- Part::Geometry + Python implementation
- ArcOfEllipse creation method
- Art by Jim (all the icons you see and the XPMs shown on creation of arc of ellipse elements)
- Sketcher Element widget for ArcOfEllipse.
Bug fix: Select elements associated to constraints works now for foci internal alignment constraints
Based (and solves) Mantis ticket:
http://www.freecadweb.org/tracker/view.php?id=1643
The ticket refers only to redundant, and ask for deletion.
Two commands are created, one for redundant constraints and other for conflicting constraints.
As usually removing one constraint of the "at least one" is sufficient, the implementation selects the constraints (but does not delete them).
The user therefore easily identify the constraints involved and decide to delete them.
This implementation takes into account the edit->Actsketch that ViewProvidedSketch creates for solving, as it is this instance the one that generates the messages in the Sketcher Taskbar.
No buttons in the toolbar by default (can be added by the user), but an hyperlink in the solver messages which triggers the selection of the appropriate command (conflicting or redundant).
Ex 1: User selects constraints from the list => right click => select "select elements" from the contextual menu => The elements (edges,vertex) involved in the constraint(s) are selected.
Ex 2: User selects (a) constraint(s) => Clicks button in toolbar (if included by the user) => The elements (edges,vertex) involved in the constraint(s) are selected.
Intended as visual aid to see which elements are being affected by a constraint.

Solving another Mantis ticket I can not find now.
- Varios minor bug fixes.
- Added the other commands to the toolbar.
- Bug fix: missing AbortCommand().
- Mode Auto-switch to edge (Sponssi mode) has selection combo disabled to avoid interferring with this mode.
However, if auto-switch checkbox is unchecked (Jim-Abdullah mode), the combo is enabled and selection of
element type can be effected via the combo with the mouse.
In any case "z" shortcut iterates round robin the "valid types" of the preselected (hovered) element.
