* Enable DAGView, if you do a lot of refactoring. It saves the day! | |||
** Go to Tools --> Edit parameters... --> BaseApp --> Preferences --> DAGView --> set Enabled to true. | |||
** Now restart FreeCAD | |||
** You will have DAGView now in View --> Panels | |||
* There is also the Dependency Graph! It shows the DAG as well, and also show you cycles. But it is not as good as the DAGView | |||
** Open it by using Tools --> Dependency Graph... | |||

* For Pockets, the Operation "ZigZagOffset" looks promising. "ZigZag" leaves parts of the border, thus you would always need another contour path. | |||
* If you want to create paths for features which are already altered by another feature (e.g. a pocket inside a pocket), you can create a clone of the original feature and create the Path on that one (Requires a new Job) | |||
== hints using the TechDraw Workbench == | |||
* you can use <code>%.5g</code> as format string instead of <code>%.2f%</code> to remove trailing zeros | |||
* Note that the linegroups are only applied at the time a new object is created. Then the weights are stored in the object itself. (2018-02-27) | |||
