Sure. FreeCAD can export an object to SVG-- albeit their stuff doesnt work very well, so i had to reparse their SVG and then re-generate.
The documentation is created with sphinxdoc-- and i wrote a plugin for sphinxdoc ( cq_doc) that generates the image automatically when the documentation is built. So each image is automatically created from the code below it. Here is one of the samples ( the format is restructured text): Plate with Hole ------------------------ A rectangular box, but with a hole added. "\>Z" selects the top most face of the resulting box. The hole is located in the center because the default origin of a working plane is at the center of the face. The default hole depth is through the entire part. .. cq_plot:: result = Workplane("front").box(2.0,2.0,0.5).faces(">Z").hole(0.5) .. topic:: Api References .. hlist:: :columns: 2 * :py:meth:`Workplane.hole` **!** * :py:meth:`Workplane.box` * :py:meth:`Workplane.box` On Sun, Mar 17, 2013 at 12:47 PM, Milos Davidovic <milo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Great work!
