| Summary | 0002049: 0.15 and 0.16 Part Revolve ignores unit accuracy setting beyond 2 decimals | ||||
| Description | There is a workaround for the following annoyance: A fully constrained sketch of a rectangle can have any of its line segments act as the rotation axis. If the rotation axis happens to have a constraint that is more than two decimals precise, it'll succeed in making the Revolve object. The problem is that it clearly becomes rounded, for example 0.175 becomes 0.18. The workaround it is to inspect the Data of the new Revolve object after it has been created, and alter its Base -> x value to the intended value. If the workaround is not followed, the resulting Revolve is hollow with a thin tube in the center. If the workaround is followed, the resulting Revolved is a cylinder, as intended. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Open FreeCAD 0.15 or 0.16, any sub version. Open attached "revolve_example_problem_with_three_decimals.FCStd". Make sure your Unit precision is something more precise than targeted, I use "4". Activate the Part workbench. Select the "revolve_sketch" sketch. Click the Revolve button. Tick "Create Solid" box. Click "Select line in 3D view" button. Select the left most edge of the sketch rectangle. The X value for the revolve axis should now be 30.175. Click OK. Type number 0 for a diagonal view, observe that the Revolve is hollow, with a thin center rod. | ||||
| Additional Information | I'm not interested in making cylinders, this is a reduced-test-case example. I have some screenshots, but I am limited in how many files I can attach on this initial but report screen. Hopefully I can attach more files soon. | ||||
