For huge models just parsing the IFC file in ifcopenshell takes
significant time. When importing via IFC explorer from the BIM
workbench, the file is already open.
This change allows to pass the ifcopenshell.file object instead of a
filename, making the process much more efficient.
Backwards compatible code to use this will be submitted for the BIM
workbench soon. Then we have a workflow, where we can insert items
from big IFC files in multiple rounds quickly.
The classes `ViewProviderDimensionBase`, `ViewProviderLinearDimension`,
`ViewProviderAngularDimension`, `ViewProviderText`, and
`ViewProviderLabel` use `super()` to call the `onChanged` method
of the parent class `ViewProviderDraftAnnotation`.
In this way the `AnnotationStyle` property correctly modifies
the properties of every annotation object.
Add view properties of dimensions, labels, and text objects
through methods, calling the parent classes, and `ViewProviderDraftAnnotation`
when needed.
This class is the base of the viewproviders of annotation-type
objects like dimensions (linear, radial, angular), labels,
and texts.
The basic properties of `ViewProviderDraftAnnotation`
are set up by a method `set_properties`, which can be called
in the derived classes.
In the general proxy object `DraftAnnotation` we implement
the `onDocumentRestored` method in order to add the missing
view property `AnnotationStyle` to older objects.
These style properties are used by `ViewProviderDraftAnnotation`
and by the Gui Command `Draft_AnnotationStyleEditor`.
Therefore, they are moved from `draftguitools.gui_annotationstyleeditor`
module to the `draftutils.utils` module, so that they
are in a central location where they won't cause circular
dependencies.
Two new properties, `ExpandProfile` (length) and `ExpandProfileStepOver` (percent) added for new feature.
New feature converts the normal single offset profile into a compound profile containing multiple increasing/decreasing offsets.
The new feature clears a each layer completely before stepping down to the next layer.
Adjust sorting procedure in PathAreaOp due to `ExpandProfile` modifications to open edges code.
At the moment the user must manually modify `FirstAngle`
and `LastAngle` to obtain a new `Angle`, but since the values
are manually entered the result is not tied to any actual object
in the document.
We introduce a function `measure_two_obj_angles`
to calculate the corresponding parameters from a pair of objects
and their edges.
Currently this function is deactivated because it is intended
for testing purposes only.
This needs to be improved because at the moment it only gives
two possible angles. We should be able to get the four angles
of a two-line intersection. Maybe a new property is required
to indicate the quadrant to choose and display.
Instead of placing the entire code in the `execute` method,
we use three medthods to extract the `Start` and `End` dimension
points from different combinations of edges.
One method to get the dimension from a single object, from the edge,
either linear or circular; one method to get the dimension
from a single object, from two vertices; one method to measure
the distance between two objects, from two different vertices.
There are three classes `DimensionBase`, `LinearDimension`, and
`AngularDimension`, their properties are set only if they don't
already exist.
Provide also better documentation in the tooltips,
and use `setPropertyStatus` to hide and show the intended
properties in the property editor.
The `Support` property is not used at all except as a way to
store an object, so it should probably be removed in the future.
A single `make_dimension` handles three types of dimensions,
(1) simple linear, (2) linear linked to an object, and (3) linked
to a circular edge.
So, we provide a new function, `make_radial_dimension_obj`,
to handle the third case. In this way we can check the input
parameters much better.
We adjust the `Draft_Dimension` Gui Command accordingly.
A single `make_dimension` handles three types of dimensions,
(1) simple linear, (2) linear linked to an object, and (3) linked
to a circular edge.
So, we provide two new functions, `make_linear_dimension`
and `make_linear_dimension_obj`, to handle the first two cases.
In this way we can check the input parameters much better.
We adjust the `Draft_Dimension` Gui Command accordingly.
Previously the `make_dimension` and `make_angular_dimension`
functions were in `draftobjects/dimension.py`.
Now they are moved to `draftmake/make_dimension.py`.
The original `makeAngularDimension` function requires angles
in radians which is counterintuitive for most cases. Also
the order is `[big, small]`.
The new function `make_angular_dimension` accepts angles
in degrees, and the order is `[small, big]`. The older
function is retained for compatibility purposes.
Also perform several improvements such as PEP8 cleanup,
writing complete docstrings, type checking the input arguments,
and depreacting the older call.
The `Draft.py` module, Gui Command, unit test, and test script
are updated accordingly.
The new `ShapeName` is the name of the FreeCAD shape file containing the 3D body of the cutter.
We might want to change the source of the `ShapeName` to the name of the first Body object in the shape file, rather than the name of the file itself.
