Hi! As some of you already know, I've been working an open source CAD program based on pythonOCC for quite some time now. Now I'd like to announce the first beta release of "Kubos".
You can download and try it out from here: https://bitbucket.org/marko_knoebl/kubos/ A screencast showing the user interface can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQXAfJJx85c Kubos was developed as part of my master thesis at university. Its primary purpose is using it in geometry classes in schools, so it has a very simple user interface. However, Kubos is also designed to be modular and easy to extend and modify. For example, I have already created a version called "Kubos Script" which creates models from pythonOCC scripts - screencast is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLjizg5cmkw Feedback and bug reports concerning Kubos are very welcome. And of course I'd be very happy about code contributions to the project. Finally I want to thank everyone who contributed to pythonOCC by quoting from the acknowledgements section of my master thesis (translated from German): "... The development of this program would not have been possible without the many existing free software projects upon which it is based. My thanks go to the developers of "Open CASCADE", "OCE" and especially to Jelle Feringa and Thomas Paviot for their work on "pythonOCC" ..." _______________________________________________ Pythonocc-users mailing list Pythonocc-users@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/pythonocc-users
