There is a model with exactly the same name? Error pop-up will appear. Set it -> Get the numbering added for every instance.ĭon't set it -> The name will be exactly as you typed in the dialog. Assembly4 is an external workbench that is used to perform assembly of different bodies contained in a single file or in multiple documents.

With the checkbox you have the full control. So far I haven't had any issue, but knowing the limitations will guide my model architecture decisions going forward.

If not, the name will not be touched.Įven better than realizing that the code added some numbers without your intention. A FreeCAD assembly file is attached here: 1 Daniel Wilson Thanks for the responses I suppose the limitations are relational to your hardware. If the checkbox is selected, the auto-numbering logic will be applied. I proposed to add a checkbox with the same meaning, which you also didn't like for some reason. To force the code to apply auto-numbering? What is the intention of adding the "_1" to the name? Assembly workbenches As of FreeCAD 0.19 there is no official assembly workbench. When I add a link to a part, I have no idea if it's already in the assembly, that's why we use computers that suppose to do some stuff automatically.ĭon't you agree? Or you think that a user should intentionally look on the tree to see that there is no duplicate names or to understand that the added instance was already used in that assembly in order to know if he should add "_1" to the name?
Or manually adding "_1" if I want the auto-numbering to work correctly. FreeCAD is an inherently modular program where major features can be developed by 3rd parties as workbenches. Under the General tab, there are3 check boxes under Model settings.
Once the Preferences dialog is open, click on the Part Design graphic on the left. It's not feasible manually checking the tree for every part you add. First switch to the Part Design Workbench and then go tothe Edit menu and select Preferences. I'm working on an assembly that will most likely pass 100 parts in it. And you don't really want to start looking in the tree for every part you add.
