Hello,
First of all, thank you for taking the time to put this forum up.

Here's what I use JSCAD for,

Thanks to V2 examples, I was able to make a script to create a curved and sheated furniture foot generator. I only need to make it parametrable and it will be done.

@jamesnewton Indeed it is not that critical, it won't be bad to have already answered questions on the previous forum asked again here, so up to date answers could be provided. By the way those who have jscad knowledge/experience to share can make a post to show what they do, put some code.

Hello, I'm deploying crafting resources on design section of my github account, and to do so I share several furniture designs, I have about 10 now, but I have lots more to add. For each of them I share the 3d model and links to open jscad scripts with them. I currently have almost the same using v1 and I wrote an html/js page to create jscad code with the good script and the good 3d model. I don't know how to do that with v2, so I'm trying something else.

( can be seen here : https://github.com/gilboonet/designs/blob/master/MEUBLES/readme.md )

For each design there's :

• direct link to the 3d model ("Fichier 3d" link)
• link to view the 3d model with online 3d viewer ("Voir modèle" link)
• link to my jscad script for skeleton 2 axis slicing with the 3d model
• (and to come link to my html/js unflatten application)

I would like to replace the link to online 3d viewer by a link to a jscad script where it would be possible to rescale it, and show its dimensions, but the only solution that I have in mind is to write a script for that, and duplicate it for each 3d model. It's already what I am doing for the skeleton script.

Do you think that for such case, I mean choose a model then a script to apply on it, there could be a mechanism. Locally I already use dynamic require from a text parameter and it works well, but on remote script I didn't manage to make it work. Maybe is there a way to run a script from a remote folder ? or a way to require an url ?

Hello, I'm using JSCAD for years now to help me build cardboard objects, statues and furniture. I decided at the beginning of this year to build a website offering users to do the same. My crafts need essentially 2d patterns to cut, fold and glue. I used last V1 version that I embedded in my website, and replace viewer-minimal.html with some custom html allowing the user to first choose a 3d model (from a .jscad script, a .stl file, or a .obj file), then one of my crafting scripts that runs on the chosen 3d model. User configures the craft as needed, then run its 2d mode that renders 2d data. Last, user click on "Créer PDF" (create PDF) that uses the 2d data and make a .PDF file. It works fine and not only on pc (I use Ubuntu/Firefox) but also on tablet (Android).

You can use it here : https://gilboonet.github.io/OpenJSCAD.org/packages/web/scripts.html
There are some example models on "(Charger volume)".

"Depliage" script takes lot of time to render and it can take advantage of colored zones (materials) from a .obj file.

code is here (but beware I'm not an IT pro) https://github.com/gilboonet/gilboonet.github.io/tree/master/OpenJSCAD.org/packages/web see scripts.html and dist/scripts.js )

Hello, I cannot help with react as I don't use it. Did you take a look at viewer-minimal.html (https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org/blob/master/packages/web/viewer-minimal.html) ? It was my starting point to integrate jscad into web pages.

Hello, it can be done like that, put a "#" after openJSCAD.org then the url of your script.

@BarbourSmith I saw your post but didn't reply as I wasn't sure it was about. I already tried on V2 the function that splits a solid into pieces as it is something that i use a lot : https://jscad.xyz/#https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gilboonet/gilboonet.github.io/master/demos/gig2i.js The function is scission3d() and the source is here : https://github.com/gilboonet/gilboonet.github.io/blob/master/demos/gig2i.js

@z3dev it is hand made model from Wings 3d, exported to .obj with triangular tessellation. It has many triangles because it is also used halved for another process, but it's something I do with lots of models that I was able to slice. The only difference is that to have it take the smaller possible bounding box, I rotated it 45° on Z.

Hello, I had a 3d model that I wasn't able to export to 2d format after I sliced it on 2 axis , and I just found that there were extraneous lines on it that needed to be removed.

After I removed red lines (on the left model), I was able to slice it and export resulting slices to 2d (svg).

now when I encounter this export error, I will look for lines that can be removed, but I suppose that a solid projection function could work even with them. Does anyone know how I could do to make a real projection function ?

I finally understood what was happening, I inverted the colours parameter of Firefox to have white text and black background
I put text in black and it's ok.

@z3dev It's certainly my configuration that's causing this, I recently replaced dark settings by light ones on Firefox and also my OS display settings. I have the same with examples :

Hello, I know there's no more support of v1, but I still have useful V1 scripts and it's the second time that I notice that it doesn't display parameters caption anymore.
the example :
https://openjscad.org/#https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gilboonet/designs/master/traverses.js

Anyway I will certainly convert it to v2 asap.

@hrgdavor Thank you for your code, it would be great to be able to load code and data like that then fire it. I hope it will be possible, with v1 I used gProcessor.setJJsCad() on an html/js app but here it is directly a jscad script.

@z3dev Thank you for your replies. That's good news that jscad accepts external formats, I will use it instead of this online viewer. I will certainly try do dig this further and try to make a little js/html wrapper to select target 3d model and script and pack them together into a script as I already do for v1 of my website tools. I will certainly change the static images by animated gif created using jscad regl-renderer demo, but what would be great would be to be able to directly use jscad to have those little views alive.

@z3dev yes, examples I mentionned come from "vue-components" project

The cut can be done for any material, there's a thick (épaisseur) parameter. I made this for my cardboard crafts that uses double wall corrugated cardboard of 6 mm for their skeleton. But it can also be used with thicker material to build this kind of furniture :

For my cardboard furniture I add a clothe like on the picture at the start of this discussion, clothe which is also computed from the 3d model.
