The counterpart of this tool is the Arch Remove tool.

A box added to a wall as a component.

Usage

  1. Select the objects to be added together. The last object selected will be the host Arch object.
  2. Press the Add component button, or use Modify → Add component from the top menu.

Scripting

See also: Arch API and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.

The Add tool can be used in macros and from the Python console by using the following function:

addComponents(objectsList, host)
The above code snippet adds the given objects in objectsList to the given host object.
Note: objectsList can be a single object or a list of objects.

Example:

import FreeCAD, Arch, Draft, Part

p1 = FreeCAD.Vector(0, 0, 0)
p2 = FreeCAD.Vector(2000, 2000, 0)

Line = Draft.makeWire([p1, p2])
Wall = Arch.makeWall(Line, width=150, height=2000)

p3 = FreeCAD.Vector(0, 2000, 0)
p4 = FreeCAD.Vector(3000, 0, 0)

Line2 = Draft.makeWire([p3, p4])
Wall2 = Arch.makeWall(Line2, width=150, height=2000)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()

Arch.addComponents(Wall2, Wall)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()
