SolveSpace has NO "limits in terms of CAD" (as SolveSpace 3.0 actually in active development, heavy rework & list of implemented features growing each week) — the only limits it has is that for creating _too_complex_ solids & assembly it just requires to use more tricks & more powerful PC ;)
- gamegod 6y agoLatest Solvespace in Git has some nifty features and QoL improvements... it's well worth compiling if you like it.
- app4soft 6y ago> it's well worth compiling if you like it. Yep, I know. I use 'master' builds since SolveSpace became open-source.[0] SolveSpace is my daily engineering tool during last 7 years ;) [0] http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entry/solvespace-released-under-gpl http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entry/solvespace-released...
- ddingus 6y agoI just took a look. It's really good. But, yeah. Has limits right now. The plan is to obviously make more possible, and a whole lot is possible right now. I know I could do a ton in that software and didn't know about it. Cool! When people say "CAD" they are talking about any number of technical things. Say you want to insure a free form surface is a minimum radius connecting all other surfaces. Depending on the scenario, one may be able to do that in the software today, but doing it may require well above average math and geometry skills. In "CAD", the skill requirement is much reduced, leaving the user more focused on requirements and overall design intent, not implementation details. Just FYI, on what "CAD" often means to people.
