@shay-cerny Welcome

This isn't exhaustive but lists some of the websites using JSCAD.

An application also has shortfalls. There's the problem of documentation as well as upgrades. Applications usually include a huge and often critic user manual. And applications will only receive the latest patches if the user notices and applies the fix. This is why the website is so appealing... it's easy.

@Shunder0
i do not understand even slightest what you are asking here 🙂

@LucaNitti Welcome!

There are a couple of ways to use DXF files. You can convert the DXF to another format, like SVG. Or you can import the DXF, and use the shapes to create different designs.

You can convert using the JSCAD CLI command.

If you want to use the shapes from the DXF file in designs then a project is required.

@hrgdavor Thanks:

@Jason-Sprouse hmm...

The website doesn't have a backend service/process. Everything is handled by the browser, including loading designs.

The only trick is for designs provided an a URL parameter. In this case, the URL is posted to a little script that reads the contents, stores the file locally, and returns the URL to the local file.

Of course, some other backend service could be added.

@Hermann-SW said in Are there JSCAD user callbacks?:

tionality?

Wouldn't that also be displayed in the browser stack trace?

@Hermann-SW You are not alone! I had the same experience, back in March.

@z3dev got my first email from this user group 🙂 and daily digest. That is great news that you got this working.

@Hermann-SW Good questions...

The website has a little Perl script that does the download of the requested file, and checks the content. This does two things; only know file types are allowed, and this goes around CORS.

I guess that supporting data URL would be possible, but there would have to be some similar checks for data type, etc.

@David-Bolt The latest release has a change which retains the webworker thread. So, debugging should be easier now.

@david-bolt one suggestion from what i've tried could be to set the camera position for regular perspective camera further away as an orthographic camera is just a perspective camera at infinity

@platypii Thank you for this investigation. I remember that I tried to get JSCAD to union those groups but then it loses colors. I use Wings 3d to colorize my models, and it does not split them into separate objects (on my screenshot I have only one geometry), only materials are separated into groups.

I splitted the model into 3 geometries and then exported it to .obj and the difference is that it contains 3 lines starting with "o " that defines start of an object. Maybe for the moment JSCAD translate lines starting with "g " like "o ".
