FreeCAD Custom Macros

This is a list with examples of FreeCAD files that includes Page Layouts made with TechDraw Workbench for Architecture projects. You can download these files for studying to replicate or to develop your own workflow. TechDraw WB is a module of FreeCAD originally for mechanical design drawings. There are some features for Architecture, but TechDraw has little control on them. This is the reason why it is necessary to document workflows that allow to elaborate drawings for a more complex technical documentation, commonly used in areas of AEC industry. In the future, FreeCAD developers will improve and optimize these workflows in new FreeCAD versions.

FreeCAD files

Project	Description
	File:FC Bathroom.fcstd FreeCAD file with a 3D model of bathroom and 3 possible layouts made with TechDraw WB
	File:FreeCAD House RenovationBlueprints.fcstd FreeCAD file with layouts of a house renovation made with TechDraw WB
	File:FurnitureCompound.fcstd FreeCAD file with a 3D object (furniture) linked to a 2D projection. You can turn on/off the 3D model and keep visible the 2D projection in the tridimensional space or in the TechDraw page. This workflow uses App Link objects. See below a description of this workflow.
	File:Dlabel for Shape2d.fcstd FreeCAD file with a window object 2D projection, linked to a Draft label. If you change the information or model of the window 3D object, the label in the 2D projection will update automatically.
	File:Dlabel on Shape2d V2.fcstd New version of a FreeCAD file with a window object 2D projection, linked to a Draft label. If you change the information or model of the window 3D object, the label in the 2D projection will update automatically.
