White Rabbit CAD

[Taron]

Wow, so elaborate, Pilou, that's impressive!
I will also have to finish the manual. There are still a few things missing.

Most excellent structure already!

No problem I can add anything at any time at any place!

2 / 10 Manual's Sections done but follow the White Rabbit for find wich ones!

[Taron]

Ahaha, exactly! "Follow the White Rabbit!"

Ah damned there were some little traps like these crazzy apparenty empty 4 Menu's Bars !

So i believe i have successed to emulate that
Rustic but efficient! I will put some colors when all thesite will be finished
(only one tab File for the moment...that slow down my progression! (File, Edit, Settings, Tab)

Ps You have a little bug on your page when you click on the image of the File / Export PNG !!! That Grey/freeze the screen!
Mine open the image on all its splendor!

PS Big question : what are the nature of your curves ? Bezier Nurbs, Vectorial, Poly ?...

I return to my Sysiph's work!

[Taron]

Uh, strange... gotta check that bug! Haven't noticed.

We have Cubic Bezier and my own invention "Tailor Beziers", which really are two Quadratic Beziers, giving you a handle in the center for very easy curve definition. It's brilliant for clothing pattern design!

[Taron]

I don't see a "bug" with Export PNG, though?! Do you mean in the "Menu" section of the manual? Seems to open up fine here.

About curves inside the prog itself it's "Nurbs" like ? (And not like Blender who is "Polylines" (not vectorial) ?

About the bug tested with Chrome here the video: you see that is an alert and closing the alert that becomes "grey" !!!
I must click on top page for retake the hand!

Oh, when you click ON the image itself?! Yeah, that's strange, too... wonder why, because it's just an image. I'll have a look!

All the vector object inside White Rabbit CAD are SVG paths, really. So it's whatever that would be, depending on the implementation of SVG. I assume it does create line clusters for Beziers and Arcs, but I can't be 100% sure. Not our concern, luckily, because it's just the display engine. You will not see any polygonal edges, though! ...most importantly, it's super crisp and smooth on the print out, too!

So SVG is Vectorial ?

I reread a little part of the French text with a good writer!

Hehehe, yeah, imagine what the V might be fore inside SVG?!
Thing is, while I literally prefer to do my entire low-level drawing myself, it's kind of relaxing to rely on a bit of API stuff. Now on the web I actually really enjoy it, too. Anyway... the most golden of all rules: Whatever works!

Well, the book looks very architectural right off the bet, hehe... anything interesting to learn from it?
