Macros are a convenient way to reproduce complex actions in FreeCAD. You simply record actions as you do them, then save those actions under a name, and replay them whenever you want. Since macros are in reality a list of Python commands, you can also edit them, and create very complex scripts.

FreeCAD Custom Macros[edit]

Macros are a convenient way to reproduce complex actions in FreeCAD. You simply record actions as you do them, then save those actions under a name, and replay them whenever you want. Since macros are in reality a list of Python commands, you can also edit them, and create very complex scripts.

Here you can find a list of FreeCAD Macros useful for AEC projects.
