Descrição
Draft OCA is a software module used by the Std Open,
Std Import and
Std Export commands to handle the OCA file format.
The OCA file format is a community effort to create a free, simple and open CAD file format. OCA is largely based on the GCAD file format generated from gCAD3D. Both formats can be imported in FreeCAD, and the OCA files exported by FreeCAD can be opened in gCAD3D.
Importing
The following OCA objects can be imported:
- Lines
- Arcs and Circles
- Closed areas
Exporting
The following FreeCAD objects can be exported:
- Lines and wires (polylines)
- Arcs and circles
- Faces
Preferences
See Import Export Preferences.
Scripting
See also: Autogenerated API documentation and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.
To export objects to OCA use the export method of the importOCA module.
importOCA.export(exportList, filename)
- For the Windows OS: use a / (forward slash) as the path separator in
filename.
Example:
import FreeCAD as App
import Draft
import importOCA
doc = App.newDocument()
polygon1 = Draft.make_polygon(3, radius=500)
polygon2 = Draft.make_polygon(5, radius=1500)
doc.recompute()
objects = [polygon1, polygon2]
importOCA.export(objects, "/home/user/Pictures/myfile.oca")
