CAD requirements

NOTE: this is a collector page showing specific features which is required some basic CAD capabilities.

CAD

CAD is an acronym of Computer-aided design, which means basically some tech drawing abilities.

Some plans already exists at 0.52 milestone of the Roadmap.

This page is basically an effort to expand what is in the roadmap and provide some background of this planned features and add some more needed capabilities.

Needed capabilities

  • Numerical input
  • Measure tool
  • Units should be consistent all over the codebase
  • Transpose of the object center
  • Geometrical constraints
    • "Perpendicular-to", "Parallel-to", etc.
  • Path trimming/extending/offset
  • Filleting tool
  • Dia-like smart shapes support

Numerical input

Ability to input the coordinates via keyboard.
