- ArcOfEllipse enhancement: Tangency ArcOfEllipse to ArcOfEllipse or ArcOfCircle by selecting end/starting points...
- Minor bug corrections (Thanks DeepSOIC)
- ExposeInternalGeometry python command
- DeleteUnusedInternalGeometry python command
- On deletion of an Ellipse/ArcOfEllipse all further unconstrained internal geometry is also deleted.
- This cleans up the code by eliminating code repetition in the creation methods.
- Major bug fix for autoconstraints for ellipse and arc of ellipse creation (for both creation methods)
- Major bug fix Start and Endpoint constraints of an arc of ellipse where not taking into account that Sketcher arcs are always CCW, so they have to be exchanged if we convert a CW arc into a CCW arc.
Sketcher: General bug fix: Tangency wrongly suggested
What?
=====
- On creation of a shape autoconstraints are suggested.
- Tangent autoconstraint was suggested even with lines perpendicular to the tangency direction
Reproduce
=========
- Make a circle on the origin and move the mouse along the X axis, it will suggest a tangency that is impossible
- Click on the axis and no circle will be created
Solution
========
- The SeekConstraint now can use the parameter dir to give a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the expected tangency, so that
if an object having a direction (a line) is hit, a tangency will not be suggested if within around 6 degrees of being parallel.
- Additionally, if such a line is an X,Y axis of the sketch, tangency will only be suggested if the direction is within 6 degrees of being perpendicular (i.e. it is almost tangent already while sketching).
- This difference is due to the fact that an X or Y axis can not "move" to meet the object under creation, whereas a line can.
- 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

- 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
+ change value of H_Axis and V_Axis constants
+ external Geometry transferred in reverse order from SketchObject to Sketch
+ replace construction property with external property in GeoDef
+ support negative geometry indices in the Sketch class
+ whitespace and variables naming improvements, typo fixes
